so... take it for what its worth... you can easly dismiss them all and say they don't know basketball. but its an overwhelming amount
now explain in what possible way the games could be rigged other than the point spread --unless all the payers were also in on it
there were no games that were even close enough except the last one to even suggest rigging
well if you remember when tim donaghy spoke on how his referee team would rig games. before each game theyed get a memo on what to focus on and how to call the game. this memo was sent from league office.
it was dependant on manipulating the series to extend as long as possible to make more money
donaghy would be told to call it tight down low. or focus on certain violations. or let other things slide.
and the league office knows what most players/teams are known for...
for instance.. in order to bring the lakers back in 2002 theyed stop focussing on three second violations. or dislodging. or offensive contact etc.. while calling more ticky tack fouls on defenders
in game 6 the league obviously told the refs to focus on defensive reach ins. regardless of who it is
donaghys betting wasn't made based on him rigging specific games under his own volition. his betting was based on knowing what the league office knew. and how these things theyre looking at would effect the outcome
asside from that.. the draymond suspension could easly have just been a fine instead of a flagrant foul. they did that knowing they were handing a win over to the cavs
all this and the only thing Donaghey did was to alter the point spread
since the refs don't shoot the ball-there is zero way they can alter any close game iwhere the final FT/3 pointers/steals are involved
this final series had absolutely no opportunity for the refs to get involved
if the league office is involved -then the players are also involved-- perhaps you think that's the case

why would league office send memo's to alter point spreads. theyre not gambling. the refs were... the league sent the memo's to extend playoff series because it meant hundreds of millions more in revenue/tv/marketing/ratings etc...
if i'm league office and i want lebron to lose. i'm gonna tell the refs to focus on travels/charges and not hand out as many continuations
its easy to rig games without actually going out and calling it differently for one team. you just focus on the areas that one team is exposed with.
the leagues been doing this for a long time. ask tim donaghy
