    lol, Like Killa said, I have seen this happen before. Stern already ordered the refs to call in favor to the Bulls, so its predetermined that they were going to win.

    You got no comin', Bori. You've been granted on by Stern just like I have. We took it and said nary a word.

    Be still.

    It's gotten to the point where I put a game on, watch a few minutes to see if both teams will be given a fair chance, and then change the channel to something with a less predictable outcome, like wrestling.

    No wonder so many teams are losing money when they cannot get a fair game called. What fan wants to see that?

    So,

    Hornets > Lakers
    Grizz > Spurs
    Hawks > Magic

    were all "predictable outcomes"?

    You refwhiners really do beat all, don't you? No wonder no one can convince you that it isn't all a conspiracy... evidence means nothing to you. A 1 seed and a 2 seed both go down and those both get dismissed to focus on the other 1 seed and 2 seed and the supposed fix in on those games.

    Absolutely. Orlando is getting smacked to get Howard out and on to LA. Spurs and Celtics are old news. The changing of the guard has already happened with OKC and Chicago being the newly annoited ones. Teams that outplay Chicago and OKC in these playoffs are going to get jobbed.

    Yes, because early upsets and close playoff series are horrible for revenue.

    Thats TNT that put up that graphic. I doubt if the games were fixed they would let TNT in on it, better to let as few people as possible know about it. The guy who does TNT's in game graphics would be an odd person to inform of this so-called "conspiracy".

    TNT is terrible and always jumping the gun.

    They did a similar thing with Gary Neal.

    When conspiracy theorists have their minds made up there is no use talking to them. No matter what the evidence is, it fits the conspiracy. And if there is no evidence, well you don't think the guys in charge of the conspiracy would just leave evidence lying around do you?

    As far as NBA conspiracy theorists go, you forgot the part where they say they're done watching the NBA, the NBA isn't getting another dime from them, etc...and then a few days later they're back saying the same thing.

    Yeah it has nothing to do with the fact that Chicago is 40 games over .500 so maybe they might, just might, be better at closing out games than Indiana.

    It's amazing how re ed conspiracy theorist is willing to make himself look in order to attempt to prove a point

    Exactly, people make mistakes and it's not like Indiana were going to come back.

    The refs' primary job is to try to keep the game close, in order to maximize the number of people watching, and therefore the number of people who will see the commercials. Follow the $$$, folks.
