MIA journalist: DWade big loser in Donaghy scandal

Winderman: Will scandal doom Dwyane? (http://blogs.sun-sentinel.com/sports_basketball_heat)

"In the wake of the revelation that NBA referee Tim Donaghy is under investigation for possibly manipulating the scores of games, numerous media outlets have compiled lists of potential losers in the scandal.

Don't be surprised if Heat guard Dwyane Wade comes out as one of those who winds up paying a price.

Why? Because few players make as much of a living getting to the foul line as Wade..."


Geee....YA THINK SO? :lol

Let's not forget about Dirk, now... a guy who never would avg. 20 per game if offensive flopping were policed

[Spurminator]

Why? Donaghy didn't ref any of the 2006 Finals.

This is stupid.

Because now every call a ref makes will carry the risk of even MORE intense scrutiny for the ref who makes it. Meanwhile, for every non-call, three guys share the blame. So the theory is that the refs will be more inclined to NOT call the ticky-tack fouls, which makes sense. And the Miami writer admits that will affect Wade's game more than most.

What this all means is that the Detroit Pistons will end up winning three straight NBA titles.

I know! If it weren't for all the cheap trips to the foul line he gets, what would he do?

Oh wait....

How do you call a foul, from a mile away, when a dude's up in the air and nobody's touching him ?

... I don't understand

Funny thing you don't mention nash. With all his flopping he can't even average 20 a game himself... Go take a look at the NBA's top floppers/ "charge-takers" and you'll see little Stevie at the top spots...

[Holmes_Fans]

Refs should have to little hat cams.

The foul wasn't called on Harris, it was called on Dirk.

[mardigan]

God I hate this shit, its so easy to lay blame elsewhere.
Next your going to hear a article say The Bobcats didnt make the playoffs because of Donaghy, give me a fucking break

Amen.

Your team lost a 7 game series. It sucks, but thats life. Get over it.

[Trainwreck2100]

Actually it means the direct oppisite

[kskonn]

Yea could see a Spurs vs Pistons rematch if they stop calling ticky tack calls. However we spurs fans can't complain much, correct me if I am wrong but I think we are consistently in the bottom of the leauge for fouls , if not the lowest.

[HeatChamps]

Man look at all da haters. I don't blame you though. Wade makes everyone else look like they're playing in slow motion.

[Brutalis]

Think about how it's going to be next season for a ref.

Finally.

That's because it's true. The Bobcats got screwed over royally by fluke fixes from fluke refs in fluke games.

[~~Ice Man 2000~~]

Wade sucks.
