Joey Crawford reffing game 2

Nice.

Best ref a road team could ask for.

[TheGreatYacht]

I don't think the refs have been assigned for game 2 or at least they have not been made public. Source OP?

[JP le Requin]

the question now is :

"what is our record with uncle Joey reffing?"

[acl14320]

At work so cant post the pic of the tweet but Ben Golliver @blazersedge just tweeted that Joey Crawford was seen checking into a Miami Hotel early this morning.

Now two things immediately come up here

1) Id much rather have Joey reffing when were on the road then when were at home

2) I really cant tell if this will favor the spurs, Joey wont be intimidated by the crowd and that would lead me to believe the game will be officated fairly but I still cant bring myself to trust the man

anyway just thought I'd pass the info along and

[SA210]

He shouldn't even be in the league anymore

[SA210]

As I said in the other thread, the man shouldn't even be in the league anymore, period.

[ohmwrecker]

He isn't that troublesome anymore since Stern cut his nuts off.

[spurraider21]

Its been said before and it will be said again, its better to have Crawford on the road than at home, since he is known to specifically do whatever will piss off the home crowd

[dbestpro]

He's rep is being a Spurs hater to being the worse ref you can have as a home team. I think in the end he becomes more painful to the home team because he makes an effort to not be influenced by the crowd to a fault.

The are three refs that Spurs fans should be concerned about: Bill Kennedy, Danny Crawford, and Scott Foster. I read somewhere that the Heat are 9-3 in games officiated by Danny Crawford during the past 2 years in the playoffs. Scott Foster was the one that officiated Game 2 of Chicago @ Miami where he ejected Joakim Noah, Tosh Gibson, and handed out like 6 technical fouls. Scott Foster also officiated Game 7 of Pacers @ Heat; nobody talks about this because the Heat blew out the Pacers but Scott Foster was terrible giving almost every call to the Heat. Bill Kennedy screwed us last year of Game 6 @ OKC in the WCF. He also officiated Game 4 of Spurs @ GS where we lost even though the Spurs were more to blame on that game because they beat themselves. Last but not least, Bill Kennedy also officiated Game 2 of Memphis @ San Antonio. That was the game where we had that 15 point lead at halftime and then the refs took over and started giving every call to Memphis. The Grizzlies were in the bonus early on in the 3rd quarter, Tim Duncan got in foul trouble but ended being clutch for us during overtime and got us the win. So yeah I think these three refs are dangerous. They are Stern's puppets.

This is something I wrote a couple of days ago just to warn fans of which refs are dangerous to the Spurs.

I actually would like Joey Crawford on Game 2 only IF we win Game 1. I know about Joey's bad history against the Spurs but I've been watching his last 5 games that he's officiated for the Spurs and I actually think that he's done a pretty good job. We've won all games. Last year a lot of people probably blamed Joey Crawford for Game 6 @ OKC but it was actually Bill Kennedy the one who was blowing the whistles.

[Trainwreck2100]

Game 2 is the game you want him reffing said it in the other thread

[Mugen]

Good news. Now i hope he isn't reffing a possible Game 5 in a 2-2 series.

[Das Texan]

i believe the spurs are undefeated with joey calling games this postseason.


i'll take him for game 2.

[InRareForm]

He was beneficial in the WCF tbh..

[Bill_Brasky]

Joey has been good recently.....

Let's just hope he's not pulling the long con.....

[Spursmania]

Joey needs to retire and Javie needs to come back!

[iminol]

I think, we're 3-0 with Joey Crawford reffing this postseason. Am I right?

[TheGreatYacht]

Joey needs to retire and Javie needs to come back!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[wildbill2u]

Stern making sure the series goes to the Heat.

[Obstructed_View]

Javie couldn't even say that the foul on Duncan was a bad call.

Last we heard, Joey Crawford was being investigated for disastrous calls. Now we see him in a must-win game for Miami.

[Venti Quattro]

Joey Crawford is a good referee if you're on the road.

[timvp]

I will take him in Game 2. He has been damn fair to the Spurs (perhaps overly fair) in his last handful of games.

[z0sa]

Actually a good thing for the first time maybe ever.
