Ref needs to retire. He hates Tim and won't give him a call.
What is up with him and that damn ref, does this guys really have a grudge against him. The way Sean was going on about it during the telecast it sure seemed that way. I remember that whole thing where Tim knocked him over got tossed and suspended for a game. Everyone knows it was an accident does this guy really believe that Tim Duncan one of the classiest guys in the league knocked him down on purpose.

Jack Nies = Emperor Palpatine.

Nies is a perfect example of how some refs hold grudges. It is going on the 3rd season since Tim accidentally ran into him and Nies still holds a grudge.
Good news is he's the oldest ref in the league. He'll have to retire one of these years.
How could he hold a grudge did he not look at the tape of the incident after it happened, you could easily see it was a mistake, i mean Tim Duncan would not hurt a fly.
Bavetta is still around....
Nies is old enough to be Bavetta's father.
Are you serious!I thought Poltergiest was like 105?
You tell me. Even Tim can't figure out why.
Can anyone give me a link to the list of refs
already found it incase any1 is interested http://www.probasketballrefs.com/roster.asp#
You think this is bad...try having a player on your team who has every ref in the league after his ass. That gets pretty interesting.
Shouldn't there be an upper limit on the referees' age? Nies will be 70 next year, and Bavetta is 67.
Jack Nies is the same referee that gave Rasheed a technical foul for smiling after being fouled by Zydrunas Ilgauskas. Same game, Nies also gave Chauncey Billups a technical foul for talking to him, and Nies walked towards Billups, not the other way around. Same game, Nies also gave McDyess a technical for not handing the basketball appropriately to a referee, even though Dice did not say a word or even object to the call.
Power trip guy ...
Nies, Bavetta, Grillo and Joey Crawford need to go.
The mere fact I know their names means they aren't doing their job the way they should.
I like Joey and most of the time. Agree about Nies and Grillo though.
I like Joey Crawford- in the 2003 (I believe) championship video he yells at Tim- "Get away from me Tim!"
Joey Crawford is decent.
Nies, Grillo, Bavetta, do definately all need to go.
That's what he told Tayshaun last week right before he gave him a T. He didn't call him Tim though....not sure why not.
cuz tim left him alone?
Could someone in the front row accidently spill a cup of ice water on the floor when Nies is running by?
No, actually it's because his name is Tayshaun.
Crawford's actually been pretty fair to us.
Grillo, Nies, and Knick Bavetta need to go. How anyone can hold a grudge against Tim like Nies does is beyond me, and it's a sham the league even lets him call our games any more.
