2014 NBA Finals Officials

Looks like their crew strategy paid off! Other than a couple individual games (Clips-Thunder game 5, Pacers-Heat game 5, Heat-Spurs game 2), this playoffs went off without much public controversy.

Based on Joey's game 4 assignment it looked as though he was set up to work a potential game 7, unlike last year where he "only" worked game 6. This makes me even more curious why it was chosen that way last year.....was it his history (albeit in 2007) with the Spurs? Was it a lackluster season or first couple rounds? Whatever it was, it seems to have been forgotten this year.

Zarba did great in game 3 (as did Jason Phillips in his 2nd Finals game), hopefully Goble will get his shot next year.
