This realy pisses me off about how some refs were paid off to make series goto game 7s,it makes sense to me i mean if u have more games u get more commercials which mean more $ for the NBA it just makes me mad that after almost 4 years they start to talk about it.also if it happened once its bound to have happened a lot.I think a solution would be to pay the refs more $.What do u guys think about the topic?

As for the scandal situation, the solution is not to pay the refs more money. Even if the league paid them more money, they'd still be doing this (its human nature...the rich would still want to get richer) and Stern needs to come up with harsher punishments. Stern needs to come out and call out all those corrupt refs (like the Mitchell report) before this reaches congress; which will KILL the NBA if this happens. This kinda makes u wonder about last years playoffs where Robert Horry hipchecked Steve Nash and Amare Stoudamire and i think Barbosa got suspended for just taking 5 steps onto the court (LAME). I think that series was fixed. The Suns were in control of that series until that 1 game suspension. Stern needs to get more strict with his refs and enforce harsher punishments...like being banned from the league if this cr*p happens again.
