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

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