Alright r/NBA, if you’re reading this, buckle up. In wake of the constant complaining about the refs on this sub, and what seems to be actual lack of information on the subject, I throwing this out there. First and foremost- go listen to the whistleblower podcast, you will quickly realize that this ref problem isn’t new. *Spoiler Alert* it’s about Tim Donaghy, and he’s actually in it, and while that may immediately make you think well it’s not credible because he’s got a bone to pick, just listen with an open damn mind. Because there are actually good guys on that podcast, ones that didn’t get to talk during the whole Donaghy ordeal. One in particular that is beyond credible- BEYOND CREDIBLE- that flat out says that the NBA and the WWE might as well be the same thing. And in my opinion that’s not even the most mind blowing thing on there, to me it’s the amount of refs that come from a specific county but I’m not going to spoil it all for you... Here’s the thing, once you realize that the NBA and the WWE are the same thing but with the most amazing athletes-talent-storylines- and drama, then you will realize there’s zero point in saying another word about the refs. Because it’s an institutional problem. One that’s not going to be fixed any time soon either, if Scott Foster is in the league, then there is no basketball. Only professional wrestling. The action that can be taken, is one on the whistleblower podcast mentions, we need to email Mark Cuban and tell him “It’s Time” meaning if he gives a voice to what’s going on seeing how his franchise was at the mercy of the refs in the 2008 finals, then maybe the NBA can go back to being more basketball. The only way this sub can help make change is to flood that mans email till he speaks up, he’s an owner, the commissioner works for him, and he’s got his own complicated past with refs that would only lend credibility to the movement. That’s what I have for you guys. Cheers. TLDR: listen to the whistleblower podcast, the NBA is actually the WWE, email Cuban “It’s Time”
