    ...I am convinced, the playoffs are going to be as rigged as the dunk contest!!! Let the David Stern conspiracies continue!!! I said it months ago...the NBA will make sure that it is Kobe vs. LeBron this year!!! :sigh:

    *the OTL topic is highligting Kobe and LeBron and who is going to be the superstar torch bearer for the post Jordan NBA...

    Rigging will not be necessary to produce this matchup.

    Well, they are on the two best teams in the league, so it wouldn't be a huge shock if it happened. Oh, conspiracy theories...

    Or maybe it has to do with of the top 2 talents in the NBA right now.. how will be the torchbearer... and it just so happens that they both ARE the #1 seeds, and probably best teams. :dunno:

    i didnt catch the episode but i dont think it's a conspiracy that the NBA influences games via the referees. it's pretty transparent.

    cases in point:
    1. Tim Donaghy was not the lone gunman
    2. the Mavs/Heat series. the biggest load of crap i've ever seen.

    Either one of them can be a "torchbearer" without winning an NBA title. And even IF the NBA wanted one of them to win the title this year, do you actually think David Stern has told the ESPN announcers what to say?

    I'm sorry, but this is a Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs kind of idea you have.

    Game 7, Sac/LAL was the worst example I've ever seen. It almost made me a believer.

    He was an asshole this season, and in seasons past, now he's out. You didn't reply as to whether you've given up on your team before the playoffs.

    Dang, how's this for irony?

    Blazer fans are devoted to 'class', yet laugh in the face of injuries to players. Contradictions FTW.

    No I think they're going to win every game they play in by at least 70 points.
