NBA Finals Officials

[actuary77]

Thanks, Victor, for all your insights. Just curious... how do you come to your conclusions? Do you study the officials' stats, watch a lot of regular season games and mostly watch the officials and not the players, or others?

Interesting comment you had about Mott. I did not know he was a crew chief. Was Dick Bavetta even a crew chief at all during the regular season?

How about Violet Palmer? I believe she had a grand total of 1 first round playoff game this season.

This last one goes back a few years... remember Luis Grillo? I believe he was on the staff for almost 20 years but never worked playoffs. Do you know why?
