NBA Officials

It's become obvious over the last few years that NBA referees have a funny way of lengthening playoff series which benefits everyone, the refs, the NBA, and the networks by making them a lot more money. It is only in the last few days that this has been confirmed by Tim Donaghy. You can read the report here.

It's going to be hard to watch professional basketball anymore just knowing the kind of control the referees have over the game. Besides, there's a whistle blown almost, no exaggeration, almost every trip down the floor. I would love to see these guys play some basketball but there's little of that. I guess that's why you've got to watch college basketball if you actually want to see someone play.
