Ex NBA referee Tim Donaghy is accusing the NBA of fixing two separate playoff games within the last six years. This is an absolute bombshell that threatens the NBA’s very existence as a respected sports organization.

NBA commissioner David Stern says Tim Donaghy is an admitted felon trying to say whatever he can to lighten his jail sentence, a statement that could very well be true. However, we also have to be mindful that it’s David Sterns job to protect the NBA at all costs, even if he has to lie, cheat and discredit someone who may be telling the truth.

The saddest thing about this, is that Donaghy claims NBA officials fixed game 6 of the 2002 western conference finals between the Los Angeles Lakers and Sacramento Kings. If you’re a regular reader of this blog you may remember this post I wrote about that game. I consider it one of the best playoff games I’ve ever seen (if not THE best), so it really sucks to have the entire contest be pulled into question.

Immediately following that game, tons of people questioned the refs for their decision making but it was forgotten. Donaghy’s accusations immediately gave those arguments merit.

What do you think about this entire ordeal?
