Two of the referees in Game 4 of the Bulls-Celtics series reportedly are Chicago residents whose families at the game were wearing Bulls gear.
According to the Boston Herald, a member of the Celtics' traveling contingent was taken aback at the sight of the crew exiting the United Center after the game with family members who were Bulls fans. The Boston Globe, citing an NBA source, reported that the officials were Marc Davis and Dan Crawford.
The third member of the crew, Bill Kennedy, was involved in an incident with Celtics coach Doc Rivers during a Boston-Chicago game March 17 this year in which Rivers was ejected and both were later fined by the league for their actions.
