[al3xis]

Wow........The implications of this 60 minutes is HUGGGEE!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pr0phecy718]

edit: how much did I miss? I just tuned in

 

[crazy dav0]

so much for gettin anyone's hopes up ...

 

[al3xis]

millions made by the mafia, now that's something..

 

[crazy dav0]

"nba instructions" ...

ivo ...

 

[persiafly]

at "if they hear anything [about the mob putting a hit on him] they will contact me." Sounds like what they told me when my bike got stolen fromour porch. RIP Donaghy.

Honestly, I feel bad for Donaghy. Made a terrible decision and it basically ruined his life. Tim Donaghy was never the only problem with refereeing in the NBA,it's a widespread issue that I feel needs addressing. The quality of it is clearly lacking.

 

[outacontrol music]

Lakers/Kobe favoritism

 

[regal black]

no wonder why they let the Rockets/Lakers series go 7 games last year

 

[jehlers02]

I feel that there was some BS'ing that the other refs didnt know and that other refs didnt bet.
Nothing was mentioned about that book where Refs would have contests like who can go the longest without calling a foul or tech.

And i better not see one laker fan talking about other players getting away with calls

We have 100% proof that Kobe is favored

 

[chitownrivera07]

damn they did iverson dirty

 

[slickrick916]

[cicero avenue dopeman]

Nah, if anything the stuff he said was positive for the NBA -No other refs bet on games. -When he reffed games he bet on he didn't make calls anydifferently. The one thing he said was that some refs didn't like certain players or really liked certain players, and sometimes if players angered therefs, the refs would get revenge by making petty calls agains them or not calling fouls for them (Iverson).

Well, he did get a "warning" in jail. From Stern or the mob...probably the same thing anyway

I can't find it right now but I remember there was a clip on youtube a ref gave Iverson a technical for hyping up the crowd or something.I'll try to find it later

SMH ... Refs have too much power. I understand keeping the game under control but that was unnecessary.

 

[carlos tevez]

That ref was like a cop on a power trip

"I suggest you sit down".

Larry Brown got sonned there.

 

[djaman]

Donaghy does actually specifically mention the '02 WC Finals in his book from an excerpt I read. The interview was more of a, "Why would you dothis?" interview and less to do with the book.

 

[bmorekicks]

I know Iverson gonna be pissed when he see this

 

[franchise 55]

With that money he was making off games, he couldn't use a little of it to fix his grill? His teeth are

 

[gunna get it]

any vids of the 60 minutes interview? I forgot all about this

Apparently he made only 100K altogether, and each game he picked correctly was only netting him like 2K. If this is true, then I do sort of feel sorry for himin an odd way. Dude was batting .750 on his bets and only managed 100K altogether? Then got fired, went to prison, and now has the mob trying to wack him?

 

[i nasmatic i]

Heard on the radio about ref biases. Apparently Bob Delaney has a vendetta against Shaq for some reason. He'll always call fouls on Shaq when the situationarises. Shaq probably slept with Delaney's daughter or something
