Thanks for the links

Not often you hear announcers complain about officiating at all, and that’s pretty much all you hear throughout those clips. In a fairly called game we’d have made the last game of this years finals look close.

This

is a lot like looking at the Zapruder film – “Yep, JFK got shot alright.” But just like the Zapruder film, it casts no light on whether on not there was a conspiracy.

There will never be any proof

of a conspiracy in a situation like this. It would require one of the officials to come forward and confess, which would land them in jail, or for an email to turn up during the current investigations, from Stern to the officials saying something like: “do whatever you have to to ensure a game 7.” Don’t think we’re likely to see either of those things happen, ever.

The closest you’re ever going to get to proof is:

1. Damning video evidence – check.
2. A history of similar problems in similar situations involving the same official/officials – check.
3. Claims of improper conduct from someone with inside information – check.
4. League officials deny allegations and attempt to cover up any evidence. – check

Does this prove a conspiracy? No, not even close, but I believe that this is as close as we’re ever going to get.
