Suppose they did and suppose a gambler believes Larry Browns stats are true, that could change the betting line. :)

They never mentioned specific names, or who was working which game, but did say that a certain number of people would be assigned games in the finals.

Either the NBA released the info, or ABC made it up.

Canuck, you wrote, " ...(Joe C, Bavetta, and Rush - game seven?), ..." That made it sound like you thought that's who she said would work Game 7.

Chris is correct. One of the biggest reasons these things are kept secret is gambling. Who's offiicating the game can have an impact on the betting line.

This was the sideline report DURING game seven.

Again, I NEVER said they stated who would be working what games - just the number (12) that would be assigned to the finals. You said it didn't happen. I say it did.

I can totally see why they wouldn't release it before the game - and I never said they did that.

Me thinks a wee bit of a misinterpretation or misunderstanding at work here....:)

BTW, tonight it's Bavetta, Rush, and Derosa.

I should get into the gambling business! :D

Kudos to Dribble!

Tell him what he's won, Chuck! :)

Dribble Thu Jun 16, 2005 09:12pm

I'll take a hug and kiss from Chuck, or tickets to a possible Game 7. No exchanges or refunds will be accepted.

changed my mind
 


Actually, i agree with a posting from earlier...game 7 will be Bavetta, Eddie F, and Joe Crawford.... that makes sense

HEY!! Josh, cool to see you here. Glad you found this place. Drop me a line about your camp plans, and how your D2 schedule went.

I remember hearing it too - during a break in one of the conference finals games, ABC's sideline reporter did a quick rundown on the crew working the game (Joe C, Bavetta, and Rush - game seven?), and also included details on how many officials worked the conference finals, and how many will work the finals.

So ABC did report it right...Joey Crawford, Dick Bavetta and Eddie F. Rush on Game 7...
