Wednesday Blogdome: Tim Donaghy on the NBA Playoffs, Danny Crawford, the Dallas Mavericks and you

Mark Cuban Dan Crawford

Could it be that it was just coincidence that the Mavs were 2-16 in games reffed by Crawford before Tuesday night? Tim Donaghy:

“No, absolutely not. I think that would be absolutely impossible to put that as a mere coincidence. It’s no secret that when Ed Rush was supervisor of officials, he had a hatred for Mark Cuban and Danny Crawford was one of Rush’s right-hand guys. So he carried out what he thought would be in the best interest of him being in the good graces with the supervisor of officials. Some guys enjoy sticking it to Mark [Cuban]; it’s no secret.” [Sports Radio Interviews]

    Wouldn’t surprise me one bit if there was some type of shenanigans going on. I believe there was a similar stat involving the Spurs and Joey Crawford, who for some reason always seemed to have it in for Tim Duncan. Furthermore, if people think Donaghy is the only criminal among NBA officials, think again. Google NBA officials airline scam and take a look.

    why do you think the FBI cut Donaghy some slack? it is because he was telling the truth when he said NBA games were rigged…the FBI doesnt cut slack for people that lie to them…
