    Luckily I m not Wizards fan as well, otherwise I'll be doomed.

    Just wordless, speechless, 'thinkingless'

    I like what Yao said after the game 'see your guys in Houston'

    100% agree man. Like Rasheed said in the past, the NBA is no different than the WWE. However, I get the feeling that if Stern is not involved in the gambling scandal, he has to let it slide because it would hurt the reputation of the league so badly that fans, players will become so alienated that the millions of dollars lost would be tremendous. Political action will ensue meaning huge problems for the league. The best thing to do is to sweep the entire scandal under the rug, and I think Stern is doing that. If Donaghy was not lying, then three of the NBA's biggest referees, Dick Bavetta, Tom DeLaney, and some other dude, would face legal prosecution and be forced to resign from the league, leaving a huge vacuum of referee experience. The NBA, as a whole, would be screwed. I don't understand why the government has not looked into everything more. I guess it's because sports drive American society and if basketball turned out to be scripted like the WWE, they'd lose a whole lot of revenue.

    This makes up for another problem. If Donaghy was not lying, then it appears that the most experienced Refs are probably all corrupted. So which referees are reliable? The old ones that are probably corrupted, or the new ones that lack experience and will probably make bias home calls.
