what the hell is bill walton talking about horry not wanting to shoot? hes been setting up around the 3pt throughout the first quarter, and has taken 3 shots or something from out there? he wants to shoot, he pulled up and shot a 3 in part 2

[ylt34c]

what's the difference? the much greater athleticism, longer shorts or the most dominant player in history?

[ironmetl222]

It seems like Bill Walton would marry the Lakers if he could...

@2:05 is wen the kings coach realized "our season is over" lol

Donaghy's other allegations were regarded as his personal views on the NBA, based on his facts, however his facts do not lead everyone to Donaghy's conclusion.

He alleged Yao was targeted for moving screens in 05, and that a ref was reprimanded for ejecting Payton in January 2000. When in fact Yao was called for 2 screens in five games the rest of that series, and the referee who ejected Payton was reprimanded not for ejecting Gary, but for not even trying to avoid confrontation w/ a player.

Just to clear this up. I said "fouls are being missed", and Games 4 and 5 saw Shaq/Kobe getting fouled on numerous shot attempts with no call, fouls that should have been called, Vlade shouldve fouled out Game 5

-REFS ARE ALWAYS GIVEN POINTS TO EMPHASIZE BEFORE GAMES

-DONAGHY ONLY REVEALED THIS TO THE PUBLIC, TRYING TO FAN THE FLAMES

-THE FBI FOUND HIM TO BE TELLING THE TRUTH(ON REFEREES GETTING MEMOS)

-THEY DID NOT INVESTIGATE GAME 6 FURTHER, AS THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS HAD EXPIRED BY 2007

@402electric walton is an idiot, Horry has always been a good outside shooter.

[RyZombie619]

@shimmyshimmyyahhh oh can your conspiracy theory you loon, you're just a whiney kings fan. Seriously, the fans, the players and the coach were all a bunch of whiners, its runs in the team so to speak

[RyZombie619]

heres a reason why the Kings lost this game and it wasnt the refs fault, they let the Lakers score over 30 points in the first quarter alone!! How are you going to win a game if you allow teams to score over 30 in a single quarter? Not to mention Fisher, Bryant and Horry are all shooting well, Webber has been reduced to an outside shooter, Turkoglu and Christie are scoreless and Divac has made one basket. Not going to win a game that way Kings fans.

this guy robert horry,was exelent player,key player

[shimmyshimmyyahhh]

@fhab525 How does this legend of Tim Donaghy working this game continue to grow?

The officials were Dick Bavetta, Bob Delaney, and Ted Bernhardt. Anyone who tells you differently is trying to rewrite history to support their viewpoints.

The FBI found Donaghy truthful to this extent:

refs are given memos before a playoff game, with points to emphasize that night. The Game 6 memo said "fouls are being missed in series that could benefit LA". Tim's other claims weren't fully investigated.
