Is it the same deal as last year?  I see there is no tv listing for the preseason opener this Tuesday.  Comcast ch34 has boxing for that timeslot but that could change.

Saw a link to this story on Drudge just now.  We all had our suspicions.  I guess sometimes wacky conspiracy theories are true.

The Tim Donaghy scandal just got more serious.

 

The disgraced former NBA referee told authorities in a four-page letter released Tuesday that two officials conspired to fix the outcome of a 2002 playoff series and influenced several other post- and regular-season games.

Court documents filed by Donaghy's lawyer detailed the "inner-workings" of a plot in which top league executives used referees to manipulate the games. Donaghy claims two referees were "company men" whose job was to extend a playoff series in 2002 to a seventh game.

The documents did not name the series, but the Lakers-Kings Western Conference finals was the only series in 2002 that went to a seventh game, with the Lakers winning both Game 6 and 7 to reach the NBA Finals.
