I am not sure if anyone watched Outside the Lines earlier today, but Jackie MacMullen wen't on the air, and said there could possibly be other refs and players involved in this whole chaos according to her sources. To this point, there is no evidence that points to that ref fixing games he was participating in. I think there are assumptions that he was fixing games (which are fair to say), but nothing has been proven. Anyway, since some people were saying the Suns were cheated, is it fair to assume that the Spurs were cheated in game four? I think this is more logical since the Spurs were probably the favorites...what do you think?

I think we're lending altogether too much credence to the petulant whining of a bunch of crybabies.

after wasting the past hour, i agree. lets just wait and see how deep this thing goes- then we can figure out what it affected

I think it's obvious from the several clips of the Spurs-Suns game that's been replayed to hell and back show that Donaghy was making calls (or not making them) in a similar manner to other refs. What he was doing seemed like the usual bad/questionable officiating that happens every day in the NBA.

Wouldn't surprise me if more refs were involved with the volume of games where teams clearly get jobbed by the officiating crew is going up at a pretty steady rate.
