Yes, I watched the series. The Kings were getting favorable calls in games 2, 3 and 5 that the Lakers weren't getting. The boxscores for games 2 and 6 are identical. People only cry about the game the Kings lost though.
Like I said, since when does a box score determine if a game is rigged? While the box scores in games 2 and 6 maybe similar, the actual calls were completely different.
Heres your boy Bill's quotes in the LA TIMES.
"We know the Kings were the better team, that Vlade Divac, Scot Pollard and Mike Bibby were victimized by a series of phantom fouls, and that the free-throw disparity in the fourth quarter was indefensible. The numbers still don't add up: The Lakers attempted 27 free throws in the deciding period while the Kings, the aggressors throughout the best-of-seven series, were rewarded with an underwhelming nine."
"When that stuff started coming out about (Donaghy), the first thing I heard from people down here was: 'Oh, my goodness. I wonder what they're saying today in Sacramento?' " related Los Angeles Times columnist Bill Plaschke.
"Everybody knows the Lakers weren't the best team that series. Die-hard Lakers fans won't admit it publicly, but deep down, they know something was very wrong with that game."
