LJ and Kori. why do so many spurs fans think the league is fixed?

[Rapper]

yep the league is fixed

PS: when can I start thread on spurstalk?

[phyzik]

Because of reasons like the fact I already am 99% sure the league will assign their in-house fixers (Ken Mauer and Scott Foster) to tomorrow's game because they have to do everything possible to get the Thunder the win to manufacture drama and stretch out the series.

If the league was run legitimately, the officials would be assigned randomly to playoff games. They aren't.

Anyone who watched the 2004, 2006 and 2008 Finals knows the league is rigged. Let's look at 2004, Lakers get called for jump ball violations on the opening tap in each of the first four games!

This after not having it called one time in the regular season on opening taps.

And there was nothing different on those jump balls than any of the others, it was just a giant You to the Lakers from the league letting them know right from the start of each game they would have no chance of getting a fair shake.

And they didn't.

The NBA will not have any legitimacy until Stern is gone and all his fixer refs are gone with him. Or turn the officiating over to an independent third party organization, but see they won't do that because then they wouldn't be able to influence the outcome of games using corrupt officials.

Watch Mauer and Foster be there tomorrow, I can almost guarantee it.

As far as ref rotation, there is a Spurstalk poster that has it down to a science and has been right almost 100% of the time for the past several years... Cant be sure but I think its Obsructed_view.

A team that is good enough to get a championship is good enough to negate the refs. If there is a conspiracy to rig the games, they can only do so much without making it obvious. If there is a team good enough to transcend that, its this Spurs team.

when tony got hacked last night, no call, kept going and dished to neal for the 3. I finally saw the light. the refs and fire a three and make it....and the refs really can't do anything about it.

...............BUT YOU HAVE TO MAKE YOUR 3's

Its impossible to fix the league. Such claims are ludicrous.
