He does give the refs a really hard time however.Chip Crainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03633190293643815540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8878605120366712244.post-28696786488935959172008-03-19T10:54:00.000-05:002008-03-19T10:54:00.000-05:00The bad part about that game was that the arena wa...The bad part about that game was that the arena was almost dead silent in the first and second quarter. Conley made a turnover and missed a shot or two. Then during a Grizzlies free-throw attempt, you distinctly heard Louisville Richard say 'Navarro, take the ball from Conley, he don't know what to do with it!' at that point Juan Carlos turns to Conley and tapped his hand as if to say 'don't worry about that.' That was just one of his comments. Now in the majority of NBA arenas that comment would not have been heard by the officials due to the crowd noise but you could hear an ant fart in FedEx Forum before the Grizzlies put a little distance between themselves and the Bobcats.Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05987390699121264215noreply@blogger.com
