Kyyle23 Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jun 18, 2013 -> 10:51 AM) At least we know it's going 7, right? EDIT: I know it's a merit based system, but you would think that they'd really try to avoid having Crawford ref against the Spurs in the FINALS given the history between the two. Im curious as to what merit Crawford has earned. The guy has been nothing short of controversial and confrontational his entire career, and he has changed games pretty much by himself. And this isnt even counting his grudge against Duncan. Will Duncan have 2 fouls by the end of the first quarter? My guess is yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy has been nothing short of controversial and confrontational his entire career, and he has changed games pretty much by himself. And this isnt even counting his grudge against Duncan. Will Duncan have 2 fouls by the end of the first quarter? My guess is yes To be fair, he's actually not a bad official MOST OF THE TIME. He just makes horrendous non-basketball related calls. Wasn't he the guy that ejected Duncan for laughing on the bench? He just injects himself into the game way too much, even if the majority of his calls are probably right. At the end of the day he's not going to be the difference. If Miami's defense shows up, they win. If not, they lose. I think if the Spurs can keep it close/lead a little by the 4th, they walk away with the win just like Dallas did in 2011. Miami will start to press, no one will know who should be taking the big shot and that'll be that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoomSlowik Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I really wish they'd start calling the hand/forearm in the face from the offensive player. Yes, I realize Blake does that on damn near every attempt at the rim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
