How Much Will Referee Tim Donaghy Hurt the NBA's Integrity?
I follow the NBA pretty closely but am shocked to learn of the latest accusations of an NBA points fixing scandal. 40 year old referee Tim Donaghy is the son of a college referee.
From different accounts that I have heard, it is very difficult to fix games because every referee is graded on every call they make and don't make. How he shaved points is beyond me and possibly the NBA and the FBI.
After low television ratings in last month's NBA Finals, this scandal is the last thing the NBA needs. The integrity of the sport is at stake.
I hope to write less about scandals and off the field nonsense and get back to on the field stuff in the near future.
