Conspiracy Theory

The NBA, in a letter to the union dated Aug. 17 and signed by Richard Buchanan, the league general counsel, said it was concerned the conference would be open to the public and referees would be discussing NBA business and operations.When asked why the NBA did not sanction the conference and prohibited league officials from participating, NBA spokesman Tim Frank said, "It's an internal matter and we're not going to comment." - from USA Today

This is about as stupid as when the NBA made the NBRA remove certain features from their website. If they were more supportive of their officials, we'd hear a lot less crap come playoff time.
