The Heat vs. Celtics series features massive star power, theatrics, and like always, fans complaining about referees. We’re only in Game 1 of this best-of-seven-series, this match-up of two titans where only one can make it to the NBA Finals, but already the referees have become one of the main topics.
These refs are on some BS

Actress Taraji P. Henson isn’t the only one. Danny Crawford’s name has been popping up among Twitter’s top trending topics, and no one has too many nice things to say about the referee currently working the Boston/Miami game.
Have you ever seen refereeing in the NFL as bad as the show Danny Crawford is putting on in the ECF? An NFL official would never trend.

As Tommy Heinsohn would say: "THESE GUYS ARE RIDICULOUS. Danny Crawford should go home to his wife, cause no one here loves him." #celtics

The #Heat need to start chanting "M-V-P" every time Danny Crawford calls a foul

Doris Burke just reported from the sidelines that Danny Crawford just gave Rondo a technical foul for untying his shoes.

Danny Crawford is blowing his whistle like he has Petey Pablo on repeat in his iPod.

People don't tune in to see the refs in the conference finals. Quit trying to be the show. Danny Crawford is better than this. Inexcusable.

Danny Crawford and Ed Malloy should be sent to the same cell with Marc Davis and not be let out until after the Finals.

Quite the verbal beating, that Danny Crawford is taking. We’ll let Jim Rome close this one out, and give us some words of wisdom on referees and the NBA.
We shouldn't even know your name. Even worse that you're trending, DANNY CRAWFORD.
