The NBA was startled by yet another issue, this time not by the fans nor by its players but by a referee. The FBI is currently investigating Tim Donaghy a 13 year veteran referee for shaving off points during a game. No matter how it turns out, this will definitely be a huge problem for the NBA in its upcoming season. A crucial call by a referee can win a championship game, imagine if every referee bets on the game they officiated how would games turn out? The game is practically in the palm of their hands unless the team is up by a huge margin and only a minute left in the 4th quarter. Tim Donaghy’s expression might be “you bet ya!” for the last 13 years in his career. Is there only one rotten apple in the basket? That is what the NBA needs to find out.
