The NBA is so corrupt. This was only the first conspiracy theory trending about them today.

Scott Foster is at the Celtics-Knicks game and he's called "The Series Extender".

Yep. Didn't work though. Celtics star Jayson Tatum was carted off hurt. Series goes back to Boston now, but they're down 3-1.

The Cavs are also down 3-1.

Celtics-Cavs was the overwhelming favorite for the Eastern Conference finals.

Put all your money on the Thunder winning the title now before their odds change. :D

I was really looking forward to a Celts vs Cavs rematch this year. Pacers have handed the Cavs their lunch this series though.
WORLD CHAMPIONS!!

Yeah, it sucks.

I never want the Knicks to win because fuck Spike Lee's racist ass.

I'm pulling for the Thunder or Nuggets.

The foul wasn't strong, but it was a foul, look at where his legs are, undercutting the player, not allowing him to land safely, etc. Most dangerous thing in the game is landing.

Only a Tarheel would think that's a foul. :D

We all know the Luka trade is possibly the worst in NBA history and easily the worst trade in sports in the last decade.

Bill Simmons predicted Luka would be like a spurned lover and get into great shape, which is why he's taking a victory lap below. Remember, the big "reason" given by Dallas for the trade was Luka being out of shape.

Related: Word is the Lakers are ready to move on from Lebron and want to start building around Luka. There's a possibility that Lebron could go to Dallas this year giving them: Kyrie, Lebron, Davis, and that Duke kid. That would play right into the conspiracy theory about the NBA guiding this trade to make the Lakers relevant again, and sending Lebron to Dallas to assist with a title would be the ultimate scratching of their back, especially after Dallas "won" the lottery for the Duke kid.

Conspiracy theories are fun, especially when it all makes sense.

The cheating? Yes.

The cheating a salary cap? No.

I should have added the line, "Goodbye cheating by paying players! Welcome cheating by paying players!", so you understood what I was saying.
