The "positive" is that Crawford does not usually favor the home team, and rarely does "makeup" calls..... His only real problem is blowing calls big time, in a random fashion. Crawford does tend to favor star players, so Harden might go to the line more.
he meant the angel of Stern. The game is on espn too so rockets have more of a chance to win than if rox were playing on tnt. rockets cant win on tnt..
Oh we got this. He's instructed to help the Rockets. His problem is that he likes th camera way too much.
wow on that note, let me pull up an LMA voodoo doll and stick some pins in him - maybe that will help us win G3...
Doesn't Joey always piss off home crowds? I guess he pisses off everyone and they just happen to be there to respond.
It's a sad day when some of us are glad that Crawford is officiating a Rockets game. How low are we now? I think I threw up a little in my mouth... Thank goodness it's not bile, just disappointment and regret.
Corbin (1 of 66) is supposed to be a homer ref (according to covers.com), but Spooner (52 of 66) and Crawford (56 of 66) are less home-team friendly (assuming ATS and Head-to-head). I think Crawford gets us this game. Would be cool if Foster had Game 4. Will take any and all help we can get.
where did you get a LMA voodoo doll!? You got an extra one? I mean, I got the pins if you got an extra one.
the fact that we even know who this joker crawford is is freaking sad. This is wrestling. That said the fix is on and NYC nba office has called in their top goon. In this case it actually does benefit us since crawford is the cleaner. He cleans up series that have gone awry and NBA can't have a 4, 5 game series. Im not sure what the line is, over under, but if I were a betting man I would take rockets for sure. This is a makeup 'get it closer to even' move by the nba. I think it stinks that we need this kind of help and hopefully at the minimum we show some life and win fair and square.
