"Verbally, there was a comment made that they were going to shoot him in the head and break his knee caps," Zaranek said. While in prison, Donaghy has begun working on a tell-all book on "how he picked those winners 70 to 80 percent of the time and about the knowledge of the special relationships that exist between referees, players and coaches," Zaranek said. "To understand his addiction, what transpired, you have to understand what led up to it during his 13 years in pro basketball and the whole culture of what he perceived as fraud and manipulation in the NBA," he said. Kobe/Labron puppets and clearly biased playoff officiating aside, could this guy get whacked for what he knows? Especially if he names names. I don't think it is at all out of line to question the integrity of the officials after the Donaghy scandal. The NBA's reputation as a fair and balanced league has been in question dating back to the Knicks & the NBA fixing draft lottery to land Patrick Ewing. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22537065 2009-06-11 20:40:02 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22483023 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22483023 2009-06-02 12:38:32 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22640052 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22640052 2009-07-01 14:17:45 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22646976 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22646976 2009-07-02 19:43:21 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22641601 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22641601 2009-07-01 19:12:52 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22576118 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22576118 2009-06-19 01:23:28 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22638570 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22638570 2009-07-01 08:58:21 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22604383 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22604383 2009-06-24 16:32:54
