What I don't get is why Amare doesn't get star treatment from the officials and the rest of the stars like Lebron and Kobe do. Wasn't he in the top 10 in technicals recieved last year?

Peace out NBA! I've been fed up with **** for a long time. This just puts me over the edge. I won't watch another NBA game until Stern resigns.

The FBI has questioned an ex-NBA referee about Dick Bavetta, one of three officials to work Game 6 of the 2002 Western Conference finals, according to The New York Times.

Hue Hollins, who retired in 2003, said the agents, who asked him about former NBA referee Tim Donaghy, also asked if he ever noticed that Bavetta "was making sure that the home team would win, and I told them I had no idea because I didn't work with him a lot," according to the Times.

According to the report, Hollins said the agents did not ask about a specific team, game or series, and did not ask about Game 6 of the 2002 Western Conference finals.

"They were very specific about their questioning, as though they had heard something," Hollins said, according to the Times. "They knew exactly what they were going after."

As if it wasn't obvious that Bavetta was on the take.

A little OT, but anyone remember this game? It was by far the worst officiated game I've ever seen. Just noticed that Donaghy officiated in it. 54 freethrows to 16 and we somehow took it to a third overtime.
