The NBA is officially as credible as the professional wrestling. This is completely disgusting to take a great sport and turn it into a sham. When the Celtics play their final game this season my time with the NBA is over. I love the Celtics, but I cannot watch scripted basketball.

There is no chance the Celtics can win this game. Allen could it 12 threes in a row...winning is not in the script.

well folks, nice job by David Stern. Welcome to professional wrestling. See you Sunday.

I feel dirty rooting for a fixed freaking league like this. Good night.

Maybe the 25K was worth it for Sheed?

i haven't been on these forums for months but man after watching that foul on pierce i could not believe my eyes... this is by far the worst officiated game ever, this is complete utter bullEdited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline.

This refereeing - honestly, I feel like I'm dreaming, this is so surreally bad...

I'm not a conspiracy theorist at all, but that Salvatore call on Pierce sincerely makes me question whether or not the league, or most likely him, is involved in some behind-the-scenes stuff.  Honestly, if he'd called a travel, I'd've complained, but I would understand the call.  There was NOTHING indicating an offensive foul in that situation.

The only non-conspiracy thing I can think of is that was a veteran's response to the league for calling out the refs on the Fisher foul.  Basically if a ref with a big ego gets annoyed and says "that could be called on the offensive player just as easily for initiating the contact" and then enforces it that way at the next opportunity.  But that's clearly a horrible call, one of the worst I've ever seen.

Despite that, we're still in this...let's beat all 8 of these punks...

OK, game is fixed it's obvious. I am no going to pretend it's not and root blindly for the C's as usual, they can win this one.

That was not a travel, we deserve a few more makeups still though by my count.  Good run there, bring it to another level boys, bring it to the championship level.

I have NEVER seen a call as bad as the "offensive" foul that should have been a 4 point play.  I cant even imagine the crappyness of it.  When I saw it was Benette Salvadore refing I knew we were screwed.

On a side note after watching those fools and their hand sticks trying to distract Pierce at the Free Throw line I think at this point the thing that would freak the players out the most is if everyone sat there completely quietly.
