The biggest scandal to ever hit the NBA didn’t come from a player, owner or even a broadcaster! Instead, it actually came from referee Tim Donaghy, a 13-year NBA veteran with nearly 800 games on the whistle. Donaghy’s career came to an end when the FBI received a tip that he was gambling on the games he officiated. After a lengthy investigation, investigators found that many of the calls Donaghy made in the games actually affected the point spread, the perfect setup if you’re betting on the game.
In 2007, Donaghy admitted his guilt on two federal charges and was sentenced to 15 months in federal prison only to be released in November 2009 after his sentence was further extended. Donaghy didn’t go quietly, however, as he fired back in 2008 when his attorney accused the NBA of asking officials to allow the Los Angeles Lakers to beat the Sacramento Kings in the 2002 Western Conference Finals to establish higher ratings. The allegations were denied and no charges were made, leaving this gambling ref to settle down and serve his time.
Guess there is not any NBA ?

But everything in our matrix is scripted. And I have proved this beyond any doubt to myself. I see the proof every day. Like tonight something happened to me which was astronomical odds. Literally a 1 in 999,999,999,999,999,999,999,999 chance of happening....and then get this- It happened again. Twice. Two in a row. Just once would have been impossible without a script. Go figure. That is the most solid proof you will ever get. And then to top this off, it happens to me daily
