I pop off on here because I don't like a lot of older officials or guys who always want to put other people down. If a guy makes a mistake he should be accountable. What joey did was not a mistake it was bad wreckless judgement.

If you are that good, not sure we can verify that here. Also if you are so good, I am sure giving out your real name and real identity would not be a problem. So that people here can identify how good you are.
Also everyone here is not "older." There are officials here that are relatively young (some would say I fit in that category).

Also the reality is that Duncan was fined around $30,000 for the incident. So it is clear that he was not blameless in this situation. I tend to hold back judgment on this because I was not there and I did not see the entire situation. It is very difficult to know what happen even based on what the NBA says. I am sure at some point Crawford will talk publicly about this situation and we will here his side of the story. Just because the NBA feels that he was wrong does not mean that is a reality. I have been in situations of he said, he said while officiating and often times the stories are very cloudy when positions are expressed. Also this incident alone was not what got Crawford suspended. There was a prior incident base on what the David Stern said on the Dan Patrick show.
Also it is very unprofessional if you are an official to go on and on in this way about a fellow official. For one you do not know the circumstances other than what you heard on the media and you just happen to be someone about the fact that Crawford might be in trouble. It must be pointed out that this is a common claim of fan boys when they come here and almost nothing ever happens to the officials in question. But then again if you are so good you should know this already.
Peace
