    Tim Donaghy ruined this years playoffs.
    His whole case ruined everything for Stern. The league is under intense scrutiny and it is killing him that he couldnt alter or get these series extended. Stern sat on the sidelines thru no choice of his and its has cost his league millions in revenue. Its a sad reality for stern and its payback.

        I remember someone posting yesterday that they were taking the Cavs today because Donaghy said earlier that Stern will make sure Cleveland wins the series. Didn't make any sense to me at all why someone would use that as a factor when making a bet on this one. If anything, him saying that barreled Stern in and placed the league even more under the microscope, forcing Stern to let the series unfold without his interference. And look what's happened as a result.

            And I thought NFL refs were a joke. This isn't even close.

                  i don't think it was entirely donaghy's fault that the refs can and do control the game in many instances, quite a few of which were in the playoffs.

                  even last night when varejao got smacked in the face with no whistle and boston got 5 quick points.
                  that's potentially a 7 point swing on one blatantly missed call.

                    Yep, LB hit the nail on the head. The NBA is in deep doo-doo and the Feds are watching closely.

                    The public has been winning for a reason this season, and his name is Tim Donaghy.

                      I totally agree. I thought you were gonna actually say the opposite but it's so true. I'm reading his book right now and it's so great. You guys should all check it out. Very good read

                        The NBA has been garbage for years now, and it is now time to pay the piper. For years, sharps in Vegas knew how series were going to play out. Stern is nothing more than an old blind fool. How much money have they lost on T.V. contracts this year? The NHL is much more exciting than watching this garbage unfold. Terrible low scoring games featuring little teamwork for the most part. I really want to see a Phoenix-Orlando final.

                          You mean Donaghy improved it? **** that Jew Stern he deserves to lose more than revenue, if he got whacked I would throw a triple kegger at my crib in honor of his death.

                            No he ruined it for us gamblers. We have had fewer games to bet on. It might be good for fairness but not for gamblers.

                              True but the gambling has been much easier and it's nice not having to worry about getting ****ed just that chooch can get a couple more million with a game 7 or 6 or whatever the case may be.

                                Not easier for me. In the old days losers like me knew that stern would let teams back in the series and we would make money that way.

                                          I know but i cant cap a game- i just know its obvious when a team has thrown in the towel and took advantage of that.
