" during your game one big blow a twenty point lead after opportunity to steal a game. They don't they get blown out in game two down two -- win game three it's 21. A special Smith calls all ball all over gain for the dairy easy thing to do everybody it's easy. The final of the game opportunity to make plate and Lakers case being that much it hurts. Joe Crawford should happen that's why your right. -- that -- Q and a session because of pencils were like -- but no that doesn't sound good."

" Because we want to go after Joe -- we want to talk about perception versus reality. And all this nonsense the back it's the Spurs aren't as good as the Lakers. And it even -- they had won that game. Those and his theories on you know on this point -- It -- got out of Joe Crawford should note that should appreciate it more Spurs games. They order you can hear from a mid January. You didn't hear from a mid February Dottie but all the -- game five it's a perception problem would Joe Crawford."

" Yeah you know it it's like David stern as much as he says he she controls -- not and he. They can't -- and it could well you're right. You don't want what Joe -- at which you don't want you want and what. I agree that the Lakers -- group before they've they've had in the series earlier so there's bills you know. Let and there's Rotblat that that the Spurs to -- really have an out in it's they blew the call it but it said that while I -- You know happy -- helps the league -- you know. But I can't watch negate -- Spurs bad -- All chipped in that situation in the you know we -- law."

" The I have and I am willing to it did to give you all -- I just think it's stupid for the NB AT even have him in that situation."

" I agree with that I agree that help. -- That the officials that they've earned their right it is officiate you know in the Western Conference finals and the Eastern Conference I. You know we can't each article and it took proper. Best there's ever ever be. Really it's as ours on it and about the that the nicest personality not going to be gotten out yet -- history go give out by. EE is very very -- it's not that that it is on the record because network that he was Beckett so. Darker you I don't think he should have been there they gave up so that the art in they they've. It was a pitched well ought to get this thing about that and Celtics is that they were there are horrible. Wait so you can -- live."

" I can't reflect accuracy of space right now I can't remember his last name yeah I know you know is named Jack. Can't over the officials I think had a problem with Clyde Drexler he he threw Clyde Drexler out of a playoff game any that was his last game in the NBA a good official had a problem with them in the NBA said okay. You're gone well. If they had done that Joe Crawford then I can understand what you're saying Dottie and it don't happen to a game. But he paid the price he was suspended. The league looked into it obviously they felt that he could be trusted in the playoff game so I -- both you guys. It is if the league says this is one of our best officials were going to happen in a playoff game lord knows they need good officials."

" I -- problem and the Boston. Why it's so he -- you like he should do he he should be able to do regular season Spurs games but. Not playoff games. He should or should you know that's where I actually -- and and I've as much as letting Joey Crawford was the gotta blame last year when he's challenging Tim Duncan to a fight. I'm actually saying this for Joe Crawford's benefit. I mean he's the guy who was put the top position to handle it he can he can work in Boston as easily easy Ken San Antonio."

" The NBA really didn't want it. Rexrodt this is great conversations he's let people we people in every direction with this but India delegate David stern at Eleanor Juanita control of the you don't Premier League now there's no problem and people in this situation officials -- official betting on games. They went on. You know -- Michael's basic don't put Joey property hectic it it is everyone world they'd they'd ever want to on a headache. You don't happen at any question -- acquire an MBA did not order the opening or so I don't know."

" Well -- quick and agree to disagree items like it was a be smarter and the whole story but. That at at the other ways and people should agree with me but I I think -- larger problem with the NBA is not Joe Crawford. It's not my man Steve -- another good official is not. Dan Crawford who can be beneficial at times in outback sport it is. The forty man I'm 45% 65 to 70% of officials in this league. Points I mean they -- it did they have a national problem or some data officials working very important games that we saw three of them last night."

" You -- it is small fraternity you don't get it at the -- where they're -- and the coaches small returning well. Think about it there's. Smaller so. When you have you know certain group of guys that you have to basically keep recycling could be game. They're just -- in the game because they can do to -- demeanor you know -- think that officials are just going to be called a second technical. It's -- back out just because they make it ain't got a post game. Why you know thinking that the meter per game at least you hope that you hope that they approach it like coaches and the players do. -- argued art of the they're cute part of what some album. Thank you are a bigger part of a it really should be especially on the tell so -- now. You would hope our coaches out there NBA coaches record is. In general crop or personal sports open officials approached game like okay I got that they had -- basket -- And not just take a call just because paying no matter what happened going to be able to to a game Nicole. In this in the final."

" I guess like you on the post game show last night so I know how you approach this but for our listeners who didn't see yet. Tell people what you think about trying to judge the Celtics win last night based on style points."

" I mean I I I really hit it about this morning. You call it -- and I know you know our topic -- after a piece said that -- you have to be concerned. You know with the way that you try to beat -- now. Let Troy haven't figured out by now I don't do not going to figured out so I don't really think there was a lot. You're out just what they did to -- Assemble a the Celtics come up shortly they think they and the game you know in the pocket and make -- they -- trying to attack. The ball at just over at court they trapped. Sort -- back at what I mean we've seen it yet but they are all yours in in the Cleveland series where okay -- east east stops. You know they'll -- Conte attack stopped backing up. -- words and it up through gently east west -- or when or out you know toward the basket so I really think. You get out of their get a win known going to look back like. -- your -- New Jersey in. Look twenty or twenty or 24 portly so -- here ought not going to think about that talk about. You know in the Eastern Conference are not -- it felt there were upset repeatedly that they want so I just think you don't take this went. It won an ugly game we're gonna go short term when another ugly game we --"

" At at the great point you and I forgot to part of that team. That I thought was gonna go down as jokers you know loser 21 point lead in the fourth quarter and the Celtics are up two games to wise and they've got another game at home they're going to take."

" the series. Didn't that was the last game one of the series you guys can you beat them three straight."

" And you know those times where you'd really set yourself up. And not really won't be here like to see at least that -- a lot of old guys that you come back you blow that lead in -- so. Oh what we are out joked about. Our scout or coach richt indicated it was make sure that can peck -- series wherever he had to do -- you know if you want one for well what charge eight would be -- one or -- but I don't think Urbina there's will not be at our. It was one on 86 out all of a quarter. Induced Upton popular city we we have a chip to two playing one it'd be something that. We've been trying to -- all seat but I'd go there -- career without that make it to that it gave spot."

" What Dottie yeah caps and it was going to happen Ray Allen -- have a big game Allen is going to have a big game well you're right Ray Allen did have a big can. Iron out."

" And I opted and having with the business being that it that would be no I hit. I'd better -- and it -- to Rollins."

" without a question about my question for. Do you think Kiki and I said dale -- 90% of what he was last night games because the began there is no games them."

" If he is 50% of what he was let it -- okay set and then you'll up I'd hate to put it on one. What -- really isn't a situation where -- couple -- currently eight have to come out and dark. He we there was a couple plays well they record rolled it jumped right. He drove back KG 8 chopped meat. There has become a point you know that that people realize that he played okay adapt quick eight apple what he did last night this team. Well opted out you know what they're gonna beat him in the final and mean it. It's just a bit different it's a different level of intensity on you I don't understand that but the hope is that the Peter also can't -- I'll hinges on ops green. At the -- I love to see Ray Allen attack -- that's one that's very -- remember you know college at three are watching in Milwaukee. Yeah -- I understand it very respectful of teammate he's Gary Carter and oh what doc Watson right trying to put it in game which -- I'm. It a lot of young players in college. You have to be -- for the team but -- last night. He just lady got in the we'll ever think moral need to be soaked -- deep pocket that -- that you know right out and walker to six aren't yet. Get that ball up somewhere in the you don't a lot of -- seen -- but I think even better."

" We seeing Kendrick Perkins grow up in front overrides."

" Let the other guy that we talked about you know during the playoffs where you've got to -- Beckett Reynard for his slot because we eat you know people. -- park and eat eat there inside at east they're east. So to speak. Oh I hope -- that was really you know really. Evident that it won't understand -- words what this team -- I'll trouble he. Eagles -- you -- understand it -- it out medical teammate and a doctor -- but she's so obvious. Just -- I don't think here that you know it is a career night for just the fact that he is all lower you know just. -- stuff chanting -- Making himself available sensibly contesting shot blocking shots. -- The way it was a piece called collapse Eric in particular that I liked it so well early in the game I have. Would be your art in the B that out --"

" By the way Donnie Jake O'Donnell. Was the official. I had a run in with Clyde Drexler in 1995 iron and then that was it. Yeah he was themselves trying to game let me ask you this that you got -- on ties and and coach Calhoun still relies -- you realize when your expertise so you know Ray Allen very well. That is delicately as Hamilton always denied drama queen. -- on the court."

" Now watch the game last night they might you don't you'd you'd find your GQ article wait. 2 to whatever. -- pro -- you know. Beat you know -- lot of a lot -- have -- people aren't Reggie Miller and sometimes you take guys like that I mean. I think you know littler back Mario early -- are -- account I saw myself as being. And Richard -- and -- and so as being. Reggie Miller out remember Reggie Miller I mean it was a flop artist that you guys. Who it would create all contact he throws arms in the air and then pushed -- Austria. Richard Hamilton you know. What did it. Egypt to wait a lot of doubt that this huge reason why he's off aren't you know I don't like I eat a lot I want. It and -- what you economies while all over the plate and create all the contact. -- I'll call or an in car to complain about. I lapping it were talking holding that -- to me is not -- players. Succeeding like that was a that that it into -- and does that that's what he'd want to be known as a guy where a lot like Reggie Miller you know. He flopped popular brought it to me I caught up Rockets could be in BP the more -- in the war started. You know -- Great across or -- like it like eyeball popped out like he just he -- they're -- they're playing like you know like soccer player that we eat you know European soccer players. Eight you know."

" Now you must I just I you're -- they perfect -- quickly before we let you go. Give me that breakdown of that big soccer game you're here now."

" A lot of older. I met at the United had no longer called up like tocchet -- again."

" We're going to talk to -- all summer long about Euro 2008 you latency."

" I will be negligible didn't know where you wrote out an example talked about actually. I I don't opportunity a lot court constantly revolutions. Actually -- parent yet."

" Donnie we appreciate it will -- be a game seven."

" Com may have yeah I don't wait -- see what Michael politics. Tomorrow morning and I got got -- on the money you got up -- audit our you know I think I think the Celtics they want moral. They they understand. It appears it's been like he did before it -- Disallowed we got the play on outlet for my fingers a -- ought to long. I eat it please help me out. They think for tomorrow I think -- from -- nice little lay out the -- we start in it on locate them."
