Yea, I agree with that. Can somebody explain what's up with that Rockets/Mavs game? People keep referencing it, but I don't remember it.
here's the youtube http://youtube.com/watch?v=7eY8qGHU52E the last play with finley standing out of bounds pissed me off to high hell, lol......
David Stern being an attorney, he would know that Tim Donaghy is in no position to lie. If he lies, he loses his reduced sentence, and will definitely get hammered for the most he can be. With as many allegations as Donaghy has made so far...it is hard to believe the guy is lying. Why would he give so many opportunities for himself to get caught lying? Here's a news piece out of Sacramento. http://cbs13.com/sports/nba.ref.tim.2.745336.html Also, here is an ESPN story abou how these allegations got brought about (Stern tried to make Donaghy pay the NBA back 1 million dollars). http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/columns/story?id=3436503
Someone needs to torrent game 6 and 7 btw. What about game 7 against the Blazers in 2000? Not sure if there was foul play there too, but I remember the Blazers having like a 19 point lead and losing it.

the truth will come to the light and the NBA will be exposed............this is a lil too fishy for my liking.........

Next year I remember pretty darn well, versus Minnesota, it was the same thing. The Lakers were helped by the refs again. So I think its fair to say that the Los Angeles Lakers were the most benefited team in the league by all these refs that got paid to change the outcome of the games. (they got rings to show it) I say put an asterisks on their 2002 championship (and any other one that is found to be rigged), just like people want to put an * on Barry Bonds' career.</div> lets put an asterick on the Patriots for being cheaters.
The Kings were given game 5 by a bad call out of bounds that gave Bibby a three. Then they choked disgusting style in the 7th game by missing 15 FTs in an OT game. I don't see how we should be putting an asterisk on anything, and it was clear to anyone that the Miami Series was just as disgusting. <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>lol, come on now some laker fans call out everyone else when the officiating's bad, but fail to see that the refs in game 6 were probably worse than all the other games you'll bring up.

Have something concrete before we start focusing on just one team to screw over.
The interesting thing is that I firmly believe NBA referees are capable of honestly officiating a game worse than a rigged one.

You missed the point completely. Nor does it matter.
I'll clarify for the point that went over your head. It's fishy as hell in the sense that there was bad officiating. I never wonder if that was done intentionally, because that doesn't matter.
