CLH GoodwillRef wrotebiz wroteI don't watch enough NBA to comment on who the best officials are, but I did start looking at the National Basketball Referee Association website and I came across this little tidbit. I just assumed that Bavetta was the oldest NBA referee, but he's not!!! I was already impressed by Bavetta at 67 but Jack Nies turns 70 this year. I can't imagine reffing those games and doing all that travel at 70 years old. I get plenty tired driving 10 miles round trip and doing Jack Nies should have been retired years ago. He may be IMO the worst NBA referee out there!!! No wait, you forgot Tommy Nunez, Jr. He doesn't even LOOK the part.
Mark Padgett eiguaram55ref wroteJesse Thompson-----one Of The Best Referee In Nba!!! Who????? The NBA is the National Basketball Association, not the NoBody Association.
tomegun Across the board I think you would be hard pressed to find an official better than Danny Crawford right now.
