NBA Refutes Tim Donaghy's Claim That Referees Bet on Blazers Rockets Game 1

We should be up 2-1.

The absolute only way we could be down in this series is by the hand of the refs.

 

My question is why is it only the rockets that get the shaft.

 

not only the Rockets...a few other teams have been getting shafted also...specially when they start to push lead to double digits

 

Take a good look from what website he got this from. Yeah, Bleacher report is the ****tiest website. Don't believe whatever those morons say.

 

Tim Donaghy had a comfortable life which he screwed up and now he needs to make money to maintain his lifestyle. He is so needy he has no credibility anymore.

 

Takes one to know one.

 

Maybe the league commissioner and workers should be on a base salary that stays steady, then it doesn't matter how much extra money the games bring? I'm not a finance expert, but something like this surly can be done.

 

Not surprised...

 

Harden is just not getting any respect. It has totally destroyed his confidence.

 

After that tech on Dwight...WTF!?!?

 

Refs taking over in this series.

 

Sad part about this rigging is Sterling's situation is diverting ppl attention from the real problem here.

 

Well if they didn't bet on game 1 , they certainly did for this one . We got massively screwed the entire game . We were in control of the tempo of that game for 3.5+ quarters and yet only led by 10 . The refs kept Portland in the game anytime we threatened to pull away . Also there were some pretty horrible calls against us in pivotal moments of the game .

I count two 5 point swings in overtime due to missed calls.

Reggie even called out the ATROCIOUS Howard out-of-bounds call while triple teamed.

And the Beverley intentional that was ignored and led to a layup.

And the Mo Williams being out of bounds.

Simply unreal. I don't understand how people can still apologize for this stuff.

Thanks goodness the pain might be over soon and I can let go of my love for the Rockets and go watch a purer sport.

 

Refs screw ups this game:

1) That was a foul on Parsons not flagrant. LMA lowered the ball and Parson got hands not his head.

2) The ball was off of LMA not Howard. That was clearly missed.

3) LMA all over Harden and no calls.

4) Howard was fouled on almost every possession in the end by Lopez. Either two hand pushes or fouls on the hand.

5) The offensive foul on Howard when Mathews gets over matched for the Rebound.

 

After tonight's game, am convinced

 

Its all a work

 

Tim D. spoke the truth...

This series may or may not be fixed. and Donaghy may or may not have an agenda. But one thing is clear. Out of ALL THE PLAYOFF GAMES, Donaghy picked the Rockets-Blazers. At the very least, it's clear that this series is the worst officiated series among those out there. It still may not be due to game-fixing, but there is a series that is being fixed, this is most certainly the most obvious one.
