Disgraced NBA Tim Donaghy has a new book coming out and of course the NBA does not want you to read it. I have to say, the allegations he says in the book are pretty damaging to the point where the NBA can not ignore this, and if these things are true, David Stern will have to step down. The integrity of the game is utterly destroyed, and I dont know if you can look at the NBA the same again IF WHAT HE IS SAYING IS TRUE. In my opinion, I think Donaghy is DEFINATLY saying some true fact about what went on, but I think he ABSOLUTLY stretched the truth on some accounts. Maybe there were only a handful of refs who did this or maybe all of them did who knows. All I know is that even though there are some AWFUL calls in the NFL and MLB, those games are not rigged. Same goes to the NHL. But the NBA is almost too easy to rig a game, and these allegations bring that to light. Here is the link to the exceprts courtesy of Deadspin.com.
