Referee Joey Crawford goes wild yelling, before Durant FT in Grizzlies-Thunder Game 5

[livinglegend]

Did someone say 3.1 instead of 2.9? Not like that 0.2 seconds would make a difference anyway.......

It takes time to press on the stop button, just like it takes time to press on the start button of the shot clock. Fisher s 0.4 second wasnt an actual 0.4. They are not robots, they are humans. They dont have godly reflexes.

Joey Crawford plays the best FT defense ever!

KD choked, but Joey C should be fined for that shit.

KD was already beginning his shooting motion when Joey just jumped at him and grabbed the ball and went ballistic like he caught Sterling incognito at the scorer's table

Considering Ibaka was only a few tenths of a second late for his shot to count.....

By few tenths of a second... you mean 3 right? 0.3 seconds? Surely, he couldn't have been 0.2 seconds late

[livinglegend]

You kidding bruh? He iced the fvck out of KD

He look scared. He was surprised when he made the first one.
WHAT A HUGE CHOKER!

[HoopsFanNumero1]

They started the shot clock about two-tenths of a second late as well so it evens out...

And let's not act like Durant wasn't choking all game long, even at the free throw line.

they reviewed the play. I don't care if the timeguys miss-timed it, refs should have sorted it out.

KD was about to shoot his 2nd FT to tie the game in OT, Crawford runs up and steals the ball out of his hands and starts yelling at someone on the sidelines all because one of the scoreboards in the background didn't have the correct number of fouls

This is the man that has officiated in the Finals every year since 1986 FYI. How do the "league isn't fixed" naysayers answer why that is the case?

So the league wants Memphis to win? And wants its second most promoted player to fail?

A tweet from someone explaining what happened

@mhouckOU
Was 15 ft from Crawford on KD FT fiasco. Foul was MEM's 4th (bonus in OT). Wanted scoreboard to show 5, which indicates bonus in regulation.

Lmao, so basically it was all for nothing. Crawford is a ****ing idiot.

If Silver really wants to put his stamp on the league he'll force that miserable old man into retirement.

I kinda wanted Memphis to win but that was BS what Crawford did. That's gotta be really distracting to have Crawford running at you like a maniac and screaming at everyone with the game on the line. That guy needs to go, or relegate him to the regular season only in the Eastern conference.

He's officiated in the Finals for like 30 straight years. He ain't going anywhere.
