    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">A 76ers game that former NBA referee Tim Donaghy worked in January fits the profile of what investigators might be looking for, sport-betting experts told the New York Times.

    On Jan. 15, the Sixers were originally favored over visiting Toronto by one point. Heavy betting on the Raptors eventually made Toronto a one-point favorite, and the Raptors won, 104-86.

    Donaghy, a 13-year NBA ref who resigned 2 weeks ago, is under federal investigation for possibly betting on games and associating with organized crime.

    Donaghy refereed in 11 games after Jan. 1 this year in which the consensus Las Vegas line moved two points or more, according to a Las Vegas company whose owner has been contacted by people involved with the invesigation. The team on which bettors wagered heavily enough to move the line that far won seven of those 11 games.</div>

    Thought so. No way we would lose to Toronto that bad! [​IMG]

    Yea, but it still annoys the hell out of me. That's two games involving the Raptors, that have been brought up as potentially rigged (one in the playoffs).

    It annoys me too, but nothing to do now on the point of the Raptors. I just hope this thing is solved and Tim gets what he deserves.

    Where would your franchise be without crappy Raptors' drafts? You got Iverson when we won the lottery but were forced to pick 2nd and you got Iguodala when our rookie GM had a brainfart and picked Hoffa. I demand royalties.

    Fine, I'll give you that. Smith'll average 5 fouls a game, as opposed to Hoffa's 6.
