now it makes sense why the knicks always lose. These dudes are scumbags
I instantly thought of tim duncan getting ejected from the bench for laughing at jay crawford.

"After the opening tip, it was hilarious as the three of us immediately focused our full attention on the intended victim, waiting for something, anything, to justify a technical foul. If the guy so much as looked at one of us and mumbled, we rang him up. Later in the referees' locker room, we would down a couple of brews, eat some chicken wings, and laugh like hell."

I blame David Stern. this has gone down under his watch.... Fuck Stern. NBA Refs have been downright horrible for the last decade. Its about time something changes

The thing about it is they have video and box scores that support these claims and still won't do a damn thing about it.

I see physical confrontation in the future.

The only issue I have with it is if the games were truly fixed then New York shouldn't be continual laughing stocks. It's in the league's best interests to have a competent looking team in NY. There's also no reason San Antonio would have been given favors because their finals were the lowest watched in a long time.

While there is some truth to some of these things I am sure its alot like many books. Wilt saying he screwed 10,000 women...Anything to sell more books and get it noticed.

Very interesting and entertaining read. I think a lot of what was written about is pretty obvious when you watch some of the games closely...

The knicks need the refs from the buffalo wild wings commercials

I dont believe the book is actually coming out right now. The publisher pulled it, probably because they were going to get the shit sued out of them.

Maybe he will get another publisher or self publish it.
