Question
Are you sure of the year this was taken? The NBA didn't start using three officials until 1988.

Could have been a playoff game with a stand-by official.

Advent Of The Third Referee - Hoopedia
Quote:
During the 1978-79 season, the NBA added a third referee on an experimental basis. The following season, 1979-80, the NBA did not retain the three-referee experiment. In 1988-89, the NBA decided to permanently add a third referee for all games.
Ciao
