the reason im not 100% sold is because this is stupid. I am not going to say it's not rigged.. but I will say you can't base it off that..
Thats because this video shows specifics.. I GUARANTEE 100% GUARANTEE. Someone can put together the same evidence that video has for ANY other nba team.. It doesn't mean anything.. everyone gets calls/doesn't get calls.. the celtics today got raped by calls.. what does that mean? nothing. The clippers were robbed on an AND-1 at the end of the game and didn't get the call so what? it happens all the time.
Now im not an idiot and I do believe more money would obviously be made for the nba if it was lakers vs spurs rather then the jazz.. but based solely on that isn't a reason to believe anything.. I am not trying to sound like things aren't rigged.. all im saying is I can go make a video about missed calls on a certain team and say its rigged too.

Is the NBA rigging Lakers games to ensure they get the 8th seed?
Oh geez, here we go again. Reminds me of the nutcase in Ottawa, Melnyk, who's suppopsedly putting a case together to prove that the slash using his skate blade by Pittsburgh forward Matt Cooke on the back of Senators defenseman Erik Karlsson was intentional. I mean what next? These people have as much chance of convincing the hierarchy that these separate sacenarios were intentional as the chances of a snowball freezing in hell. However I guess if you have the bucks to waste, why not put them to use, even if it is wasting.

I've bet on the Sacramento Kings against LAL the last 2 times they played. The Kings narrowly missed covering both times, despite heading to the locker room tied at LA, & with the lead Saturday night. The Lakers took 31 more FTs than the Kings did over the course of those 2 games, and it's not like Sacto struggles to get to the line (12th in the league... guess who's 1st?), but they only took 8 FTs in the game at Staples. Even the difference between the top FTA team in the league and the team that's dead last is only 11 per game, so a 31-attempt discrepancy is rather significant.
I feel like the league office maybe sends certain refs who bow down to Kobe, and/or are just bad refs in general to these off-the-radar LA games where LA is the favorite. Just go back and check the box score of any random game, and you're likely to see the Lakers made 30-35 trips to the line.

It's always been like that. If you have a superstar on your team you will get the benefit of the doubt more often than not. That's why the foul wasn't called on the Rubio 3-pointer....that's why a foul wasn't called on Howard pushing down Faried.
Benefit of the doubt...not rigged.
