Wow.. look at this video.



I'd forgotten how badly officiated that game was. It wasnt just Tim Donaghy though. He had help..

We need to play this video for the Sun's everytime they play San Antonio.

What is really disturbing is that it wasn't just Tim D., there were just as many bad calls or no calls on the other two Refs.Makes me wonder if all three were in this together.

Donaghy was definitely not working alone. It would be too risky for him to do it without the cooperation of some of his peers.

The mob was able to hide their hooks on other refs to keep their operation is intact.

It's a fixed league, why are you guys still watching? This is worse than WWF.

That was absolutely horrible.

I'm not a Suns fan or a Spurs fan.. I'm not speaking as a "homer" for either team..

But my god the Suns got screwed in that game. That's painful to watch.

I won't watch it. I'm trying to move on with my life. :)

So it was an * championship for your team then?

Boy would that be the day a Spurs fan admitted it.

It was the worst officiated playoff game in history, and it was actually Eddie F Rush making almost all of the terrible calls.

inst that the game we won? Cuzz Nash got body checked into the board by thunder thigh's Horry because the Spurs were losing.

I thought this was the game Nash came storming back with his typical three's?

Sorry to bring it up again.. but.. I never realized Donahgy was involved in that series.

Even IF some of the other calls, you could say were questionable. When I say questionable, I mean "should have gone the Spurs way, or at least could. I only saw one questionable, where Duncan fell down after Diaw made minimal contact. The last call, was SO painfully obvious, with Eddie Rush looking right at it, I believe that the game was fixed. I don't believe that it was only Donaghy in on it either.

Thanks alot Darth Llama.

No that was game 4, in game 3 amare barely got to play because of Rush and Donagy hitting him with the most pathetic ridiculous fouls you could imagine, while duncan played almost the entire game and didn't even skirt foul trouble.

Granted Amare is more foul prone then Duncan for sure, but them being polar opposites this game as far as fouling goes (and in the playoffs no less) shows the game was rigged.
