    Game 5 of this year's finals had an outrageous foul call on a Jimmy Butler 3 that was reviewed and upheld.

    Denver won anyway so it'll be lost to history but it was also quite suspicious

    The NBA when Stern was commissioner was blatantly rigged.

    I voted F1 for this reason, it may have the greatest discrepancy between haves and have-nots of any pro sport I watch.

    NBA and college hoops. No other sports are as impacted by bad refs as those two. Even with bad NFL and college football calls.

    You're naïve if you don't think games have been fixed in the NBA. It's a matter of record at this point.



    Lakers shot 27 free throws in the 4th quarter.

    Tim Donaghy did not ref this game.

    Basketball refs have way too much power in games. Basketballs one big flaw

    Racing.
    It's always a problem because your horse or greyhound or whatever doesn't always win.

    If it's a team sport you know that you're going to be ok.

    Maybe you should look to refereeing games of sports you love. It's all about learning the rules mate.

    It's truly fascinating how boxing appears in these replies while mma with literally most of the same judges won't show up or shows up less. The guy literally calling said MMA fights sees a conspiracy in everything but the sport he gets paid to cover is allegedlly the only clean sport.

    Brief search appears to be based around match fixing and Russian gambling.
