It’s fantastic…
The NBA should be enjoying the strong viewership of the Finals between the Lakers and the Celtics, but instead they are facing the worst accusations in the history of the league. Former NBA referee Tim Donaghy accused the NBA of being a corrupt organization that forces referees to fix playoff series.
Although Donaghy is a convicted felon, I believe that he is speaking some truth. The NBA has incentive to make playoff series last seven games, and I believe that the NBA officials have manipulated games.
I guess I won’t be working for the NBA!
