It's really hard to take the NBA seriously(not the Lakers fault) when accusations by Donaghy seem to have merit (tonight, Heat vs. Mavericks, etc.) There is just such blatant favoritism (as a Cavs fan I admit we get it too) that it is hard to sit and watch a game and not feel like the refs are trying to impose their will instead of calling it evenly.
Joey Crawford shows up in key games nearly every single time. He reffed games 5&7, maybe more than that? I just remember seeing him in game 5 too. That seems like waaayy too many appearances for one guy. There are other referees aren't there? Can we at least get a guy who doesn't have a documented history of personal vendettas against certain players?
