Game was never in doubt in the second half. Who cares about the refs?
This. Be mad if this is a nationally televised game.

Integrity. Games like this makes the league look like it has none.Game was never in doubt in the second half. Who cares about the refs?
Well that's silly. The refs were not intentionally making calls in the Pistons favor. They just happened to miss more that favored them. The refs are not betting on the game just because one ref did.Integrity. Games like this makes the league look like it has none.
Used to do this with Boobie. We've upgraded his sidekick, slightly.THE BEST moment of the season was watching LeBron dap up Kyrie after he hit that three late in the 4th. Just seeing that made it feel like we were watching a "team", not dueling banjos.
Refs can easily have $ on the games, but are more likely paid cash for outcomes that they can produce. Very easy to flow $ into an untraceable account or just use physical bills. Spread opened at -5 and ended at -9. 77% of the bets were on the cabs, which is very high. I typically auto fade anything at 80%+ and it could have been there before it dipped to the high 70s. It doesnt happen as often as people call "rigged", but from what I saw tonight, it wouldn't surprise me that this one was tilted for Detroit to cover. this isn't sour grapes either - I had the cabs -7.5 the minute the line came out on my SB yesterday.Well that's silly.

It's so stupid that fans can't get off the whole "refs have money on the game" in any sport. No they don't. Refs miss calls. Sometimes it benefits one team more than the other. It makes you sound crazy to suggest there is any type of conspiracy because a few calls were bad.

You realize this makes you sound like a lunatic, right?Refs can easily have $ on the games, but are more likely paid cash for outcomes that they can produce.

John Hinkley Jr wanted to kill Ronald Reagan. Does that mean we should suspect that EVERYONE wanted to kill Ronald Reagan?Eh. Why would you doubt it after the whole Donaghy experience?
