Top 10 Signs An NBA Game Is Fixed
Here's a link to Letterman's Top 10 Signs An NBA Game Is Fixed. When the page loads, click on Late Night - The Late Show then the Top Ten icon on the right side for 6.11. This is a link to CBS through their Portland affiliate's website and is perfectly "legal". BTW - my favorite is number 6.

Ya' know - I don't see what the big deal is even if the games are officiated to "help" a certain team win resulting in more revenue for the organization. This is TELEVISION, people. The NBA is really the NBE and anyone who thinks otherwise is very naive. Of course, the officials and the league have a hard job because if they are too obvious, then a lot of people will stop watching, so they have to "balance" their activities to make it appear the games are determined "properly".
Maybe they should just show a disclaimer prior to games and then everyone will "get it". |
