2026年5月26日星期二，在俄克拉荷马城佩科姆中心进行的西部决赛第五场第三节中，裁判托尼·布拉德斯 (Tony Brothers) 向俄克拉荷马雷霆队主教练马克·戴格诺特 (Mark Daigneault) 示意。
随着雷霆队在西部决赛第二场中对圣安东尼奥马刺队的维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 采取了更具身体对抗的防守策略，主裁判布拉德斯开始引起圣安东尼奥球迷的愤怒，他被指责纵容俄克拉荷马雷霆队的以赛亚·哈尔滕施泰因 (Isaiah Hartenstein) 频繁拉扯和推搡这位马刺球星。
在第五场比赛中，布拉德斯在吹罚一次犯规后与雷霆队的卢·多尔特 (Lu Dort) 嬉笑互动，微笑着指向自己的手腕，这更是火上浇油，加深了马刺球迷的怨恨。
然而，随着布拉德斯被任命为周五在弗罗斯特银行中心进行的马刺与尼克斯总决赛第二场的主裁判，圣安东尼奥的球迷们可能会惊讶地发现，他们其实没必要大惊小怪。
没错，在马刺队西部决赛的两场失利中，布拉德斯确实担任了主裁判：分别是第二场的113-122和第五场的114-127。但在布拉德斯32年裁判生涯所执法的2141场比赛中，没有哪支球队在常规赛（77胜41负，胜率65.3%）和季后赛（15胜6负，胜率71.4%）中的胜率能超过马刺。
周五将是布拉德斯执法的第20场总决赛，也是他今年季后赛执法的第15场比赛，这一数字超过了其他任何裁判。根据数据追踪网站 NBAstuffer 的统计，他今年季后赛场均吹罚45.9次犯规，在41名季后赛裁判中排名第12位。
总决赛第二场的裁判乔什·蒂文 (Josh Tiven) 在他14年的职业生涯中也对马刺颇为友好。在蒂文执法的比赛中，圣安东尼奥取得了41胜24负（胜率63.1%）的战绩，其中季后赛为7胜2负（胜率77.8%）。在常规赛中，联盟中没有其他球队在蒂文执法的比赛中拥有更高的胜率。
周五将是蒂文执法的第6场总决赛，也是他今年季后赛执法的第13场比赛——其中7场担任主裁判，6场作为裁判组成员。根据 NBAstuffer 的数据，在这两种角色下，他场均吹罚犯规数在季后赛裁判中均排在倒数前10。他今年已经执法了四场马刺队的季后赛，包括西部决赛的第二场和第七场。
迎来职业生涯第11个赛季的副裁判泰勒·福特 (Tyler Ford) 将迎来他裁判生涯的第二场总决赛。今年季后赛他此前已执法了10场比赛，包括西部决赛第六场。根据 NBAstuffer 的数据，他季后赛场均吹罚44.9次犯规，略高于平均水平。

Tony Brothers draws crew chief assignment for Game 2 of NBA Finals
Referree Tony Brothers gestures to Oklahoma City Thunder head coach Mark Daigneault during the third quarter of Game 5 of the Western Conference Finals at Paycom Center in Oklahoma City, Tuesday, May 26, 2026.
As the Thunder turned to a more physical approach to guarding the Spurs’ Victor Wembanyama during Game 2 of the Western Conference finals, crew chief Tony Brothers started to draw the ire of San Antonio fans, blamed for allowing Oklahoma City’s Isaiah Hartenstein to regularly grab and shove the Spurs’ star.
Brothers’ playful exchange with the Thunder’s Lu Dort, smiling and pointing to his wrist after a foul call during Game 5, only added to the resentment from Spurs’ supporters.
But as Brothers draws crew chief responsibilities for Game 2 of the NBA Finals between the Spurs and Knicks on Friday in the Frost Bank Center, San Antonio fans might be surprised to learn they have little cause to raise alarms.
Yes, Brothers was the chief for a pair of Spurs losses in the Western Conference finals: 122-113 in Game 2 and 127-114 in Game 5. But through the course of the 2,141 games Brothers has officiated across his 32-year career, no team has a better record than the Spurs in both the regular season (77-41, .653) and the playoffs (15-6, .714).
Brothers will be calling his 20th Finals game Friday and his 15th game of this year’s postseason, more than any other official. His 45.9 foul calls per game this year rank 12th of 41 playoff officials, per tracking site NBAstuffer.
NBA Finals Game 2 referee Josh Tiven has also been friendly to the Spurs through his 14-year career, as San Antonio is 41-24 (.631), including 7-2 (.778) in the playoffs, with Tiven on the call. No other team in the league has a better win percentage during the regular season.
Friday will mark Tiven’s sixth Finals game and his 13th playoff game this year — seven as the chief and six on the crew. In both roles, his average foul calls per game rank in the bottom 10 among playoff officials, per NBAstuffer. He’s officiated four Spurs playoff games this year, including Games 2 and 7 of the Western Conference finals.
Umpire Tyler Ford will be calling the second Finals game of his career in his 11th season. He’s manned 10 previous playoff games this year, including Game 6 of the Western Conference finals, and he’s averaged 44.9 foul calls per game in the playoffs, per NBAstuffer, to sit just above average.
