    No... they wouldn't... would they? I think the NBA is idiotic, but it can't be that idiotic.

    I'd really hope not. At this point im hoping for Benny Salvatore or Danny Crawford

    Edit: but you know 1 of those 2 will probably get the heat game

    I'm sure we'll get Foster and Violet Palmer.

    I believe there are going to be the same refs for the whole series.

    What? Why? The NBA doesn't do that, typically. What an easy way to bribe/threaten refs.

    I'm guessing you don't know what you're talking about, again.

    I know what you are getting at, but they didn't make it clear. I'm pretty sure the crew stays together but rotates series. So say we get shit on by the nba and get foster and Palmer, they would then go to the GSW lac game to screw them over.

    The Pacers were anointed contenders prior to the season, and have been very good for 3 years now. IMO, their fans have the right to freak out after a performance like we saw tonight.

    I read it or heard it on the radio. Something they are trying differently this year. This appears to be confirmation of it.

    http://www.sbnation.com/nba/2014/4/19/5631730/nba-playoffs-2014-scores-clippers-vs-warriors

    It says the same refs will call Game 2.

    It helps Vegas to know who to bribe.

    It's the last sentence of that article. Amazingly stupid. Is the purpose to save the cost of a couple of plane tickets?

    The source is Clutchfans, so it's suspect (I'm not sure what their literacy rate is over there) but I read that Dick Bavetta and Violet Palmer aren't on the playoff roster.

    Re: So we can bitch and moan all day there's a game

    Read the last sentence:

    Game 2 of this series is late Monday night, and the same referees will be calling it. Expect them to receive a stern talking-to from Commissioner Silver (no pun intended).

    Why would this person make it up? Everyone will know Monday night.
