Is it true that after one possession last night, Tim ran back on defense yelling to Pop: "He's not gonna call it, he's just not gonna call it"?

That's what Sean Elliot said.
i'm waiting for the day that nies, bavetta and grillo all show up to work a crucial spurs playoff game.
that will just be a joy to watch :|
Crawford gave Bowen a T recently for saying, "Come on, Joe."You're right, crawford at times has been a , but he's called it down the line, usually in our favor
Nies=Asshole
Best point of the thread.The mere fact I know their names means they aren't doing their job the way they should.
I remember, distinctly, the morning after the Nies Tackling Incident. I was listening to 96.1 and whomever was their sidekick at the time was Jack Nies's son. He didn't say anything until someone called in to vent, and rightfully so, about the travesty.
It was the typical "blah blah blah Nies needs to change his diaper blah blah self-righteous prick." Standard fare. Well Nies's son, the sidekick, spoke up and said (I will be off a little here, but not much. I remember it clearly) "Look, Jack Nies is my father [or step-father, forgot] and what Tim did was completely out of line. My father was just doing his job, and he shouldn't have to worry about being assaulted. I would have thought better from Tim."
This was just one of those things that stays with you-- to hear how truely crazy the Nies perspective is on this, as his son was obviously influenced in his opinion. I forget what the caller said in response, but honestly I don't care. To this day I rarely listen to 96.1 for that exact reason.
I remember that game in GS when the incident occured. Nies wasn't going to do anything until the crowd started yelling for it. IF that had happened in San Antonio would the outcome have been different. Nies looked lost after the jumpball like he forgot what position he was supposed to take and stood there like a deer caught in the headlights. The point is Tim had no ill intent in harming the old man. Nies just felt humilliated and is pretty much unforgiving. I say fire the bum.
Magic Johnson once said Joey Crawford would give you a T even for a bad stare!
Did any of you guys see Sports Sunday on WOAI?
They showed footage of Timmy ( I gues from after the game) and he was asked about what happened when Nies gave Timmy the technical last night.
Timmy :" Can I say 'no comment' to that? I want to play this road trip."
( Tiimmy and the reporters laugh) "When I retire you'll hear a completely different story."
I can't believe you guys haven't mentioned Bennette Salvatore. That dude is as bad if not worse than Nies. Anybody remember 2003 Game#1 WCF Finals Free Throw Shooting Contest against the Mavs?
Salvatore is the suck.
I heard this quote on the Channel 5 news this morning. That Timmy...what a funny guy. If people only knew.Did any of you guys see Sports Sunday on WOAI?

Bennett is also the same ref who earlier this season decided that Tim Duncan's first act after getting a key offensive board in the last minute is to step out of bounds. Of course, he's the trained professional so I'll take his word for it that it had nothing to do with the fact that Dirk and Jason Terry attacked him like Will Ferrell and Chris Kattan in "A Night at the Roxberry".
We call Salvatore, Sabotage!! That's pretty bad.
I do think it is kind of cool that Nies gave Timmy a suspension because he stomped on him. That is your classic horrible call. How else can he make the Spurs lose??
Has the irony of Salvatore's intials struck anyone besides me?
Bavetta is 67? Jezuus. He looks EIGHTY FIVE. I hate watching games that he refs because I'm afraid he'll die on the floor.
so horrible yet so funny
