    Here are the officials for the Blazers game tonight. D. Crawford, B. Spooner and L. Wood. I wish I could sub Leon Wood for a different one but the first two I feel should do a great job. Dan Crawford is imo the best ref of them all and Bill Spooner is a local ref so maybe he will help make this a six game series at best.

    I like Danny Crawford... but Leon Wood? Nooooo! But we aren't playing the Sixers, so that's OK I guess.

    I'm just wondering when Javie will be in this series. I don't think he's refereed a game yet, and if he does game 6, I predict a Blazers win. From what I've observed over the years, he tends to make more calls for the visiting team.

    You are right, if we were playing the Sixers we would be in big trouble. I know he worked at least one playoff game so far but I haven't seen his name listed a lot. What sucks is he is working a potentially series ending game and I really don't feel he is that qualified.

    Isn't the whole fact that we have to worry about who the officials are rather sad?

    Honestly the thought never crosses my mind until I read the thread before each game.

    Crawford is a good official. I thought Wood was good until game 1 of this series.

    Unless he's in LA, then he gives BJ's to the home crowd

    My point is - it just goes to show Blazers fans think the only way they can win a game is if the refs are right. Because any other way, they're bound to lose ... because somehow magically every ref in the NBA wants Rockets to win. F the refs, its about the GAME

    Easy to say when you're on the winning side of the uneven calls. We win Game 2, and everyone on ClutchFans is bitching about the bad calls and horrible reffing.

    We bitched once, ok. Yall just bitch every game, even when your team loses by 27. Freaking ridiculous.... a loss of 27 points blamed on the refs.

    EDIT: And in Game 4, Blazers had the lead and blew it because of bad rebounding and turning the ball over in key moments of the game. Refs didn't take the lead from Blazers and hand it to the Rockets, so please - just stop the bitching every game.

    now I'm not one who thinks the officials had anything to do with the outcome of any game this series.. but seriously man.. pot, meet kettle. Did you hear your fanbase after game 2? Goodness your fanbase has no room to whine about ref complainers.

    Only started after the forumers here complained about a 27 point loss, which is a shame. The only games that you can make an issue out of is would be game 2 and game 3, one went Rockets way - one the Blazers way.
