NBA Replacement Refs
I have not watched an '09 NBA pre-season game yet. How are the replacement refs doing? They are coming mostly from the D-League and WNBA with a smattering of college guys. This list of replacement refs is updated daily and includes photos and game assignments.
Steve Anderson Riel Banaria Dan Beauchamp Scott Bolnick Michael Bobiak Michael Borgelt Lorenzo Bronson Nick Buchert James Buntin Deldre Carr Marcus Clayton Sir Allen Connor Andre Crawford Greg Dandridge Mike DiRenzo Jerrald Drummond Edward Gaines Carlos Gonzalez Tim Greene Eric Hanspard Michael Henderson Wilson Holland Don Hudson Ivan Jackson Byron Jarrett Larry Killips Karl Lane Roberto Marquez Tre Maddox Jose Martin Glenn Mayberry Corey McCray George McDaniels Marty McEachean William Mensah Victor Montgomery Jaime Morales Matthew Myers Brett Nansel JT Orr Robbie Robinson Hector Sanchez Kevin Scott Garrick Shannon Brian Shelley Lamont Simpson Clifford Sims Jeff Smith Kevin Sparrock Crathman Stephens Tom Sterner Ben Taylor Scott Twardoski Art Vaulk Kurt Walker CJ Washington Ken Washington James Williams Jeff Wooten |
Out of curiosity, do these D-League and WNBA officials have a choice on whether or not they want to be replacements?

Just a prediction, as we get close to season opener, watch the media reports on how bad the replacement refs are.

All indications thus far are that the replacements are doing well.

The NBA administration did not look highly of him turning down the offer to work during the lockout. After the lockout is over, it will interesting to see if he gets invited back to work the D-League. |

My idea of choice as it pertains to this scenario is "can they choose not to work NBA games now and still remain in the D-League and WNBA programs?" |
