Its hard for me to understand how an NBA game would be rigged. Thru the ref's? ok maybe.. Im not denying what so ever.. it just seems like too much momentum to be able to control like that

Ghost calls and 'missing' fouls, mainly.
I've noticed a LOT of bogus travel calls lately, mainly on first step out of a triple-threat position. What's very fishy about it is they never show a replay. I always see it at least once a game. I remember seeing draymond day "that's not a travel" after they called it on him once.
It's all to control point spreads, I think, and it's determined by how much is bet on a certain team. A team can still beat the odds, but it's basically the same as hitting at the casino.

I would argue they don't call enough traveling.

As a Laker fan I can certainly say and we can all agree that game 6 of the 2002 WCF was rigged. The Queens lost fair in game 7 tho

Lets not talk Lakers now...
They basically gave them the next game go. Watch the footage.
'01 Finals, now 76ers didn't have it in that series. But no calls on Shaq basically doing whatever he wanted elbows and all.
'90 Finals Sending Kareem to the line when there was no foul against the Bad Boy Pistons.
So much more, but when you're on top you get the calls and it makes sense to make $$$$

I'll give them game 6. Sacramento fans would have a valid gripe and I can't knock them for it although they do tend to exaggerate the free throw differential and overlook the fact a decent portion of it was them intentionally fouling the lakers which led to that disparity.
As good as that Sacramento team was though, it's my personal belief if the game 5 shenanigans never happen, game 6 is nothing but a footnote in a 4-2 Lakers series win. That team knew how to close opponents out.

A real easy way is to get the star player in foul trouble.
It would work on both ends of the floor .

I knew for a fact after Samakis buzzer beat at the half in game 3 was counted, that whole series was in favor of the Lakers
Ball was still resting on dudes palm w/ 0:00 on the clock

Talked to one of the Statisticians who makes the lines in vegas and has been a sports better all his life.
Fixes do occur but are pretty rare and involve a LOT of cash. Some people who make the lines use proxies to bet since they aren't allowed.

They implemented instant replay the following season as a result of that and a few other buzzer beaters during that playoffs. Human error is a part of sports though. Instant replay is in other sports and isn't well received at times.
Samaki Walkers 3 shouldn't have counted, but when you're up 24 points in the second quarter of a game that could potentially put you up 3 games to 1 with 2 of the final 3 on your home court, and you proceeded to get out scored by 25 the rest of the game, you deserve to lose.
That Sacramento team was mentally weak though. That said, they got a bad break the following season when Webber got hurt against the Mavs in the second round. A Kings Spurs WCF would've been interesting that season.

nba officiating tonight was crazy weird.
think vegas won big with w's winning and gm going under. the inconsistency in the foul calling from first half to second half
