I think this is absolutely ridiculous... tell me if you agree. David Stern is too busy paying attention to what Allen Iverson is wearing, if people are listening to I pods, or people taking two steps out of a box and then get a suspension. That he doesn't even know that a ref is changing the outcome of games.
This is what i don't get, he fines people thousands of dollars because you can't criticize the officials, but the players might even be right. Rasheed Wallace confronted Tim Donaghy outside at a parking lot or something of that sort because he was mad at Tim. You know what Rasheed got for that? a fine and a 7 game suspension even though we now know Tim might have been controlling the outcome.
If there is one person to blame for all of this it has to be David Stern because while he's worrying about dress codes and trying to be as strict as he can on the players (THE ONES WHO ARE ACTUALLY PLAYING THE GAME) refs like Tim are taking advantage... because you know if Tim is found guilty hes not the only one. So if there is one person who should be blamed for this it has to be David Stern. So let the players do what they want because he needs to worry more about things that actually matter in the league, like this fiasco.
This has NEVER happened in our four major sports in America. i mean where refs control the outcome for the points spread. It has never been caught at least except for one sport, and it's the sport where everyone isn't surprised it happened, which shows you how much the NBA messed up.
