What can you say about Tim Duncan getting ejected for laughing? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lu1Wz5jQEz8 All say that Joey Crawford is the most respectable referee in NBA but I lost respect watching this. Tim Duncan whould have been laughing about something his team mate told him right? What can you say about it?

I actually backed Joey Crawford's call on this. It's one thing to make your feelings known verbally to the referee about a decision they have made but to laugh the way Tim Duncan did and then act like he had done nothing wrong, well I think he deserved that technical for that reaction.

But he might be laughing about something else. Joey Crawford had no idea what Tim Laugh about except the suspicion that he was laughing at the calls. He was ejected for laughing? ahahah

That was not the first time in the game that Tim Duncan had irked Crawford. If you look at other sports, if someone laughs at the referees decision they will get sent off or ejected.

Crawford thinks that duncan is laughing at him. I do believe that duncan is laughing at him but that is just my opinion without any evidence that he really is laughing at him. Which turns out to be a stupid call or a personal call.
