Spurs, Game 5, Derek Fisher

.....have no idea how many games I have personally watched Joey Crawford officiate games (and the key here is "personally" as during the entire game and not just what the television cameras capture). He is the Clarabelle of officiating second only to Tom Donaghy due any respect at all.

And NO - I do not "blame" officiating on the Spur's demise; however, let's not

Oh, sorry Dennis, I just posted about the same thing in the other Spurs thread. Guess we think alike!! (lol)

Maybe Crawford hates the Spurs, I do not know. My point was simply towards people who believe the Spurs lost b/c of officiating, as if it was only the Spurs that were burned with bad calls (which they definitely were). I was simply trying to get across that every team got bad calls in the playoffs. In my opinion, this was the worst I ever saw playoffs officiated. But it clearly had nothing to do with the loss. Not even close...
