Throughout the 90's it was the Knicks who got every single call. Fortunately the Bulls were able to take care of them even with the biased officials. Now, the nba put the refs in the lakers pockets. From the time that Pat Riley left the lakers in the 80s until now the NBA championship pretty much stayed between the Bulls, the Pistons and teams from Texas. The NBA can't STAND to see the trophy stay out of NY or LA so they do everything they can to make sure teams like the lakers and knicks get every single break.
Like how the Lakers cut their roster in anticipation of getting O'neal from Orlando despite the fact that they would never do this unless they were already in negotiation with him, which they obviously were. Too bad it was illegal because he was still under contract with the Magic at the time....
Or back in 1985 when NBA fixed the draft lottery so that the knicks could get Patrick Ewing.
Tonight's game should have made it blatantly obvious, the NBA conspiracy theory is not only alive and well, it's true.

Hell, I admit, yesterday's game was a complete joke. Refs were morons (I know they were in it for the money..., but they made things really obvious with Pargo's layup foul..) Also, you could keep saying it, but the fact is that Lakers
did beat the Kings last year. Horry's finishing 3 was phenomenal. Lakers played with no heart yesterday, the only Laker with heart was Derek Fisher while Kobe and Shaq were playing with absolutely no Laker pride.
This year, things are different. As much as I hate the Sacremento Kings, I have to admit, their players are really good, and my bet is on them this year. If a team wins, then they win. Even if the refs are morons in a game, the team that wins, simply wins. So when the Lakers lost yesterday, I didn't act like a sore loser and go bitch about how full of **** the game was, but when the Lakers won the King's last year, they won regardless of what anyone has to say.
That's how the game of basketball works.
