Tim Donaghy I am going to watch my first NBA game in 3 years, Orlando vs Boston. I am going to send out a breakdown of the game quarter by quarter, send me an email if you want a copy.




Can anyone get that breakdown and post it here? I'm sure many people would give betpoints.

[tanner40]

First step to becoming a tout. He needs to start posting here

[pat venditto]

1st Quarter Breakdown

11:23 Foul on Allen missed, Carter clearly fouled going up toward the basket.
9:23 Hand check foul called on Nelson, Pierce throws elbow into him and fools the referee into calling the foul on Nelson.
8:44 Cheap foul called on Lewis when Rondo drives in for a lay-up
8:27 Carter fouled; need to be consistent with the foul given to Rondo at the other end of the floor on the previous play. Carter deserves 2 shots they deserve the benefit of the same type of call at both ends.
8:09 They let Garnett elbow Howard 2x before calling the offense foul on him. Why was the first one let go?
5:11 Foul missed on Davis pushing Nelson as he drives through the lane, Nelson pushed and turns ball over.
4:41 Terrible call, Davis does not go into and through defender Lewis; he just makes a move and turns with the ball. Referee Callahan looking right at the play and passes on calling it, the outside official makes this call and is out of position with a bad angle.
3:17 Offensive foul missed on Howard, he pushes off the defender.
3:12 Foul missed as Rondo goes to the hoop on the fast break.
2:22 Foul called on Nelson. Allen and Nelson bump into each other, strange call.


2nd Quarter
8:58 Travel missed on Howard, then an offensive foul is called which sends him to the bench with 2 fouls. This is important because he is pulled out of the game. Again advantage Boston
8:01 Nelson travels prior to dribble, switches pivot foot prior to dribble, very obvious.
6:34 This is not a flagrant foul – this is not unnecessary contact, the rule states it has to be unnecessary and/or excessive contact, this clearly does not fit that.
4:22 WOW, this is the 3rd foul on Howard, NOT A FOUL. Robinson out of control going to the basket. He has 3 fouls and 2 of them are wrong.
3:19 Pierce fouled going to the basket, this foul is most likely let go because Boston is up 15 points, as the score separates the referees start to favor the team that is down.
12.6 Where is the foul, again the referees start to look at the score and favor the team that is down. Carter goes to the foul line.

Boston clearly is getting the benefit of the calls in the first half.

3rd Quarter
6:00 Travel called on Rondo, if Boston is not up 20 this is ignored. L. James (Cleveland) takes 2 more steps than this and it is never called.
4:38 Goaltending is missed; you can’t take the ball off the glass. Garnett’s block was illegal.
1:42 Cheap foul called on Allen, this is a foul called based on the score being a 22 point spread. This had no effect on the play. If the game was within 10 points this would not be called.

4th Quarter
7:39 Foul on Garnett, cheap foul based on the score. 85-65
6:03 Announcer Mike Brean makes a comment that there is plenty of time left for a come-back, anything to keep the fans tuned in.

I just joined his Facebook group. He keeps talking about a blueprint in his book. Has anyone actually read it?

[SRBI]

This is some solid info, someone should sticky this

[stealthyburrito]

[AndyDCappa]

GAME DECIDE IN FIRST HALF

Wow. That's great stuff.

[tanner40]

I am going to see who he likes tomorrow

[bogbat]

I find it hard to believe this is the first game he watched in 3 years being an admitted gambling addict and all.

He would make a lot of money as a tout though lol

[Sunde91]

ESPN shows a replay of the game at 3:00AM ET (not sure, 12:00AM West Coast).

Review the calls to see how sharp he is

[tanner40]

Too busy selling his book and doing interviews selling his book I guess

[shari91]

I subscribed to get text updates on his FB fan page

Me too!

As soon as he posts anything about the Suns game, I'll start a thread if no one else has. This guy seriously hands out free money.

[Snowball]

interesting if you go to discussions he said delonte west/gloria james affair messed up Cavs
chemistry. evidently he talks about her for a couple paragraphs in his book also.
btw i've heard him say that David Stern would lose 50 pounds before the Suns make it to the finals this year. and "no way in hell". so.. money theory says Suns tomorrow but the LOCK is Lakers in gm 7.

[shari91]

He did say LA is going to the finals. Just hasn't said after which game yet.

[jgiun1]

ohh man..........I'm so sick of seeing this guys name.......if he dropped dead today, the world would be a better place.

[tanner40]

Yep I'm waiting patiently for a response...I still like Phoenix tomorrow though (Lakers is a LOCK game 7)

[Patrickz0rs]

And over half this forum believes the NBA is not fixed...

[sharper2]

how much money is vegas going to lose in game 7 though for the lakers? You've got to be thinking everyones going to be pounding lakers in game 7 with this mentality. even though i do like the lakers myself in game 7, it'll be hard to refrain myself from going large on them.

There won't be a game 7...Lakers in 6 on the road

[Congruency]

diesel please more picks for us to fade

[treece]

Donaghy made some money last night.

[WiseGrumpy]

I think a win for the Lakers tonight is good for Vegas. If it goes to game 7 they will lose a lot of money like someone just mentioned here. And they are the better team.
Leaning towards to LaekShow tonight ...

[ackescott]

I will too go for the lakers

Lakers have finished off their previous 4 playoff series the past 2 years on the road. food for thought

That's a great point, but how does the NBA make money with the series ending in 6 rather 7, especially with Boston done now?

Or is it just about Vegas?

[THA_DIESEL]

Donaghy right again.

[sideline36]

This league is rigged for sure!!

[tanner40]

[WillC]

wow, definitely need to watch a replay now
