Why didn't someone notice?

The real question I have is how could this have gone on for apparently 2 years without someone noticing this referee was manipulating pointspreads and/or outcomes of games? Or, at the least, that he was a lousy referee.

The average fan, of which I am one, might say "How could anyone even tell? Officiating is so inconsistant, particularly in the 4th quarter, that all the referees could be involved and we'd never know."

Does the NBA have a review process similar to what Mike Perini does in the NFL whereby officials are critiqued as to their on court performance?

Publicising this process would be a big step in regaining the average fans' trust.
