This idiot even brags about the Mavs being 1 and 19 in playoff games he officiates.
I hope he gets hit by a bus.

'

yea that guy should not be allowed to officiate our games just for the simple fact he even knows that stat. The NBA really needs to fix the officiating. Well, I guess they are already fixed in a way.....

I'm really starting to lose interest in the NBA. It's more scripted than the WWE.

I have always wondered what the lifespan is for the sport. Really. How long before people really get tired of seeing dunks. The game will have to be adjusted in some way to gain back interest IMO. Maybe raise the rim a foot or 2 and make these giants really have to work to score or maybe add a 4 point line. i dunno.

Same can be said for baseball. I see a 4th base in its future one day.

When David Stern is fired, or steps down, there will be more interest in the NBA. The guy is a fucking crook. It's now public knowledge that games are fixed, especially in the playoffs. And people still watch (myself included, I love my Mavs). Until they get hit in the pocket book, nothing will change.

david stern is hitler.

lol @ the idea of a 4th base.

i think there is plenty of interest in basketball and baseball without tricking shit up, no need for full blown idiocracy yet.

Did you guys see the thread I started about what he said to the players before the all-star game? He basically said he will end their careers if they try to mess with him and the NBA on the new CBA. The guy is twisted.

Have you seen the direction this country is going in? People need new constantly. A concept like baseball not changing for decades is old and antiquated. The next few generations will want a direct change on how the game is played, that is for sure.



Hell, physical sports may be a thing of the past one day, the way things are going. The sports we play in todays age may be considered barbaric by the coming generations, in the near future.

When Phil Jackson pretty much says it's rigged it's a pretty big statement.

I tried to tell you bitches at Canada that the NBA officials rigged that game. And now Phil Jackson has confirmed what I knew all along. I also remember being told I was crazy for believing in conspiracy theories...
