Last night, Jordan Crawford attempted to pull the old switcheroo in the Washington Wizards/Charlotte Hornets game. After Jan Vesley was fouled, Crawford went to the free throw line instead of Vesley for the two free throws. This should've been rather obvious: Vesley is 6-11, Czechoslovakian, and white; Crawford is 6-4, from Detroit, and black. Crawford made the first before an official noticed, swapping the two, wherein Vesley missed both.
But I obviously am not posting this here for that. Instead, watch (and more importantly, listen) to the call of the incident by Steve Buckhantz and Phil Chenier on CSN Washington. http://youtu.be/bVGxUQg1tww How hard is it to actually pay attention to the event you're being paid to call? You'd think the multiple whistle blasts at 47 seconds would tip someone off that something is going on, but no one appears to notice that? Gotta fit those story lines in! Makes you long for ESPN to fill us in on Tim Tebow. http://deadspin.com/5960314/now-even-espns-announcers-are-mocking-espns-tebow-obsession -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
