Yeah, ok. Keep telling yourself that while everyone reads the contrary. Especially whenever you take it upon yourself to tell everyone what Crawford really meant when he asked for a fight.
You've been a huge drama queen today.
not really. that's just the start.
how should crawford be punished? what if he's not punished at all? will Tim ever be able to laugh on the bench again? will Dirt call his boyfriend Hasselhoff back?
those questions are still unanswered and up to discussion.

People are talking about all the wrong points. The focus is why Duncan got ejected. Whatever he said after the ejection is, for the most part, moot. It may have given insight as to why the two got into a tussle in the first place, but remember, it is natural to be upset after an ejection (reminder: being "out of control" would have been to accept Crawford's fight proposal)
As for the reputation of being a whiner: it only matters what he said last night. If someone has a reputation for being disruptive during a game but isn't being disruptive on a particular night, then he doesn't deserve to get tossed on that night. You wait for someone to do wrong before you punish him.
Now some guy will probably bring up some outlandish analogy. "If a criminal has robbed 3 stores in 3 days, should we wait for him to rob a 4th?" The cir stances change when you move from something as mild as whining to something as serious as a felony. It also helps that Duncan claims he only said 3 words to him all night. I'm inclined to believe Duncan more than Crawford.
Where are they reading the contrary? I've pointed out what I think set Crawford off. Everybody here is acting like Tim was just chilling on the bench doing nothing to provoke the hot-headed Crawford. Tim is not 100% innocent in this...
The fight thing is just common sense....there is NO WAY Crawford wanted to go at it physically with Tim...
and the idiot of the day award goes to....
LEONARD
I'm out for the day, but how about you breakdown my breakdown of the events and tell me where I went wrong? Use the youtube link and be specific...
how come nobody is talking about Howard jumping on Oberto and Oberto getting the foul called on him. that was one of the worst calls i have ever seen. it kind of reminded me of kobe and bibby back in the 2002 WCF.
It was definitely bad officiating all around. Let's just hope it gets better before the playoffs. I want to see some even, fair games as far as the refs side of it goes. At least this didn't happen in the playoffs, right?
yeah, true.
I don't agree with the ejection. Duncan was clearly laughing and mocking the officials from the bench, but warning should have been given prior to any technical or ejection.
HOWEVER... i think we would all like to know what Duncan did to get the first technical. He must have said something to get the first one.
i forget what he said, but its out there somewhere.
Even then, laughing at the officials FROM THE BENCH warrants no ejection
Ok..we get it Crawford..write to the officials...write to the nba..yeah it was ty but its getting out of control with all these post about him and duncan..

complain there but watch your language
damn right.The league has enough with Cuban.Spurs fans don't complain about officiating...
The laugh thing was just common sense.....there is NO WAY Tim wanted to laugh at a foul that Crawford called.
(Glad you can read minds, Leonard. Maybe you can sit by Pop during the playoffs and give AJ hand signals as to what he is thinking, should they meet.)
How do I know these are neutral fans again and not Spurs fan's just posting?
Of course not...why would he laugh? He was already pissed about the 1st tech and him and Crawford had been going at it quietly the whole game...
I don't see why it's a stretch to think that Duncan was laughing at Crawford's foul call on Oberto. Based on where he looked, where Crawford was at the time, and what Crawford was doing at the time...it makes sense IMO.
Cheguevara won't bother doing that as all he likes to do is post negative one-liners.
So the rule of law here is if you disagree and don't suckle the Spurs, then you are an idiot? So much for the Masters Degree I hold - the Spurs fans told me I'm an idiot.
This Spur fan with a doctorate degree thinks you're an idiot.
The problem is, your opinion has not a shred of objectivity.
You claim to know what Tim was laughing at, and you claim to know what Crawford meant when he asked for a fight.
Being that Tim said nothing when he laughed at Crawford makes everything speculative. Please don't ever pursue any job that involves law.
well I was in a bad mood today, but Crawford's firing has put me in a great mood.
And no I'm not gonna go back and argue with LEONARD, he states that he knows what Crawford was THINKING at the time. He can actually read his mind
how can I respond to that brilliance?
"I've since had referees tell me they felt the younger officials tend to be intimidated by Cuban and all the referee scrutiny he maintains with former officials on his staff and regular reports to the league."
From the Sam Smith article http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/18064691
own it, bathe in it, eat it, mavs fans
Ok...forget everything about what people were THINKING at the time...
Go back to page 2 to my breakdown and tell me that Duncan didn't look at Crawford prior to busting out laughing. Show me where I went wrong in breaking down the video...
See above...And no I'm not gonna go back and argue with LEONARD, he states that he knows what Crawford was THINKING at the time. He can actually read his mind
how can I respond to that brilliance?
I'm not claiming to read anybody's mind. That's speculation on my part...
I am saying that Duncan looked at Crawford while he was stating who the foul was on, and then busted out laughing. That is what set Crawford off. That's all I'm saying. I'm not saying Crawford right...everybody (especially Mavs fans) knows that he's a power tripping, prick, hot-head...
Sam Smith
So what?!
So ing what, you dip !!!!
He sees a dope whistle another obviously stupid call and laughs!!
Even Stern said that is ed up--
WTF is so hard for dumbass Mav fans to understand?
You ers ed, moaned and whined all summer long about the refs out to get you tearm by giving Wade a bunch of free throws.
I've seen whiny ass Mav fans try to prove their conspiracy theory using spreadsheets comparing every call in the NBA playoffs!
o get off of your damn high horse and go get ed.
