    First impression with the title is that the refs are dirty but turns out its the NBA that's dirty and the refs are just milking it. No judgement there at all, but it definitely adds a weird layer to it considering the refs have money on it so it's hard to think there wouldn't be bias on top of the NBA's push.

Meanwhile, the Jazz had 64 wins, and that was a franchise record. On the road to the finals, the Bulls never saw a game 6, unlike the Jazz, that would have gone to a game 7 against the Rockets if not for Stockton hitting a buzzer beating 3-pointer. Perhaps you're remembering the Jazz differently because they were the best they'd ever been in their history, while the Bulls were doing business as usual, and were following their untouchable 1996 championship.

      2006 was when Kobe was struggling with a bad roster, and people were saying he could not win without Shaq. At that time, if Dirk won it all after beating Tim Duncan, he would automatically become the face of the NBA and this idea terrified the NBA. The NBA makes money through superstars and Dirk was simply not marketable.
      He didn't sell shoes and was never voted as an all-star starter in his entire career, even with multiple 1st team. Also nobody cares about basketball in Germany, so the fact that Dirk was a foreigner was a pure negative. Wade was the opposite. From a business standpoint it makes a lot of sense for the NBA to give Wade the most whistles he could get.

      You’ve likely heard the term “The Cabal” before, meaning a secretive and political organization. The name originates in Kabbalah, an ancient and widely practiced mysticismIn Kabbalah, the practice of coding numbers into words is known as gematria, meaning geometry in language. Gematria is very popular in Hebrew studies, and in Ancient Greek studies, where it is known as isopsephy..
      Gematria is about pairing words together that have matching numerical values and logical relationships.
      ( Think About How Significant Religion Is To The World, I'm Not For Or Against Religion I'm Just Making A Point About One Of The Most Powerful Subjects Know To Mankind )
      For example, notice how these words
      - Jesus
      - Messiah
      - Gospel
      - Parables
      - Cross
      When added together each of these words equal = 74
      If you are not familiar with the Gospel, it is the story of Jesus, and when Jesus speaks within it, he does so in parables.
      (Jesus) 10+5+19+21+19 = 74
      (Messiah)
      13+5+19+19+9+1+8 = 74
      (Gospel)
      7+15+19+16+5+12 = 74
      (Parables)
      16+1+18+1+2+12+5+19 = 74
      (Cross)
      3+18+15+19+19 = 74
      Simple English Gematria (also known as Ordinal Gematria):
      A=1, B=2, C=3, D=4, E=5, F=6, G=7, H=8, I=9 J=10, K=11, L=12, M=13, N=14, O=15, P=16, Q=17, R=18 S=19, T=20, U=21, V=22, W=23, X=24, Y=25, Z=26
      So ask yourself....
      Why they have encoded the number 666 into world changing events, including September 11, 2001 and the coronavirus pandemic of 2020, as well as smaller but related rituals, including the premature death of basketball superstar Kobe Bryant?
      ( think about how powerful and significant religion is in this world especially the Vatican. )
      Here.. If You Wanna Know More.

    Again, this is why I don't watch Basketball. The inconsistency of the calls by the refs is to control the winners and losers or to make the series interesting. That's why a team can outscore the opponent by 20 points one game and then play the same team 3 nights later and lose by 20. But to me it's obvious. Plus, the league has developed into a contact sport, yet calls are based on a no-contact game.

      Did you even listen? Lol. He reffed the games how the NBA told him too. He never reffed them so he would win. He knew he would win. As do all refs. He just bet so HE could win. It was never to take money out of other people's pockets. He just had access to information that regular bettors don't have.

    • @leobowman8149

      No, basketball is just the hardest sport to referee in that it has unenforceable rules. There is traveling on every other possession. There is a 3 in the key violation every possession that lasts longer than 10 seconds. Fouls are often ignored in the playoffs intentionally in order to change the game and make it more exciting. Hand checks are regularly ignored unless they lead to a loose ball. Off the ball fouls are almost always missed. Bottom line, there is a lot going on on a basketball court, and there's only 3 referees for 10 players. Hes explaining how they make the games as fair as possible by responding to valid complaints by coaches with altered refereeing. He used his knowledge of those adjustments that would have been made anyway to make money gambling. It makes perfect sense that his calls would actually go against himself when possible, because he was winning plenty without actively fixing games.
