This certainly won't help the reputation NBA referees have been acquiring lately, but it could help to explain the inconsistency. THE FBI is investigating an NBA referee who allegedly was betting on basketball games - including ones he was officiating during the past two seasons - as part of an organized-crime probe in the Big Apple, The Post has learned.Incredibly disturbing news when you considering how poorly many NBA playoff games have been officiated over the last few years. To think a gambling ring can infiltrate the NBA is very disconcerting.
I'll be interesting to see what names get brought up from the media, fans and those around the NBA. Obviously Joey Crawford's name will come up since he's had some previous issues with taxes.
Another name, and this would be a shocker, but what about Bob Delaney. Prior to working with the NBA, Delaney worked as an undercover cop inside of the New Jersey / New York mob scene. He certainly would have some connections.
Major black eye for David Stern.
