Just heard nba is looking into Joey Crawford and his whole crew for taking cash from unknown source ... Also the team that officiated the knick vs pacers nba trying to keep it hush hush.. Crawford was convicted of fraud by the IRS for some plane ticket scandal..where he was forced to resign only to get reinstated by stern a few years later...this is just ashame and a disgrace to the nba.. Also kinda makes sence how many times did the pacers go to the line compared to the Knicks ESP I. Game six... Letting hibbert hammer people inside the resurrected area no calls. Just weird that we lost to a less talented team but no need for talent when the other team is allowed to foul you and goes to the line more then double the opponent Knicks/ heat .. This pacer team shouldn't even be in the ECf ... Who ever gave the crew money is a pacer fan!

Wow. Hmmm.... Going to hold back on thoughts until we have more details.
Wishing everyone well. I enjoyed posting here for a while, but as I matured I realized this forum isn't for me. We all evolve. Thanks for the memories everyone.

The part that kills me about things like this, even if the refs are crooked and it's proved, what do the Knicks get for getting screwed? Nothing.

I think teams that are wronged should get some sort of retribution, an extra lottery pick, something; extra cap room... Teams that made underhanded deals have lost picks before.

Very similar to flopping. Refs call a foul on flop but has no bearing on game.

Yeah, but this is much worse than flopping in my opinion. What a player does should have a lot more bearing than a ref. If the game is officiated well, the ref is invisible. This is not the case.

Lol, NBA officials have more power over the outcome of a game far greater than any other sport. I think that needs to change. Me personally I prefer refs from the international games. The refs there usually is call games fairly. Some NBA refs have it out for certain players. I know many of the NBA refs this was season were absolutely tired of the Knicks crying when calls didn't go their way. Even, if that is the case, you still have to do what is right and make the right calls.

yeah the fish rots from the head down. i hate what he's done to the game.

knicks win 38-43 games in 16-17. rose MUST shoot no more than 14 shots per game, defer to kp6 + melo, and have a usage rate of less than 25%

Stern has always been the most corrupt commissioner in all of sports...but why do we always act like we are the only team to be screwed by the refs? There have been so many other teams so much more screwed than us.

With a statement like this can we get some examples?

Nuggs got screwed too!!!!!

Lets wait and see what this looks like. The Travel points thing was total horse**** and had no bearing. I think they did not pay taxes on that perk because the NBA pays the airfare and passanger gets a perk. Big Whoo.

Now if they got cash from a source, and its to influence a game outcome then that Ugly turtle neck dude got to go away. Thats not cool!

Im not jumping to any conclusions let alone think the kNicks got screwed. Unless its a tax investigation Im not sure how in two weeks this comes to the surface? Throw a game, you going to a bad place!

its pretty upseting. and shamefull. it def makes sence the payoff the bookie gets in vagas if the pacers win it all who no one guessed would make it past the knicks now the heat and next the spurs your talking about millions of dollars. and for a guy calling the game that only makes 82,000$ a year with a family and bills when a bookie asks you to throw the game for a half a million how many ppl would take it.

Nothing has leaked and it's been several hours. I feel something like this would've been all over ESPN by now.
