    Yep. Needs money, likes notoriety. So he opens his mouth and spews crap occasionally to keep his name in the headlines.

    Everything you need to know about Tim Donaghy can be summed up by this one truth: The guys who he was fixing games for were betting millions per game on games Donaghy agreed to influence. For his game-fixing services, he charged then $2000 per game.

    The guy is simply an unprincipled moron.

    Anyone know if this is a real account? I don’t doubt what he’s saying, but it just seems phony. Like a bitter fan (trust me I’m bitter too) created it to try to prove to the world we got robbed and will continue to get robbed.

    It better be real as many sports writers like Henry Abbott are retweeting from that account.

    Isn't Tim D in jail? So inmates have twitters and NBA League Pass now?

    OMG Justice League lied to me! Flash and his dad have to use phones to talk to each other when they could have DMed instead!

    He has been out of jail for quite a while. You need to time travel to the present.

    The NFL had some massively stupid calls, but not systematic targeting going on. Different story.

    Donaghy will spew any lie necessary to deflect from the fact that he was fixing games. He still claims he only bet on them and never did anything to impact the scores. Furthermore, he has no friends in the league. No other ref will speak to him, even his former best friend Foster.

    Thus, as appealing as this might be, it’s about as reliable as a ‘72 Fiat.

    I thought he was in jail for the rest of his life probably made more than enough in bets to last him a life time

    Refs swallow their whistles every year when the Rockets are in the playoffs. What's new?

    You guys want to believe anything just to confirm your narratives. What makes you think this is a real account??

    Lebron pushes off and uses his shoulder to create space as much as harden

    Well Giannis does it much worse than Harden.

    So if they call it on Harden then they have to call it on their new face of the league.

    By the way... just watching the Celtics game last night.. why does no one harp on the numerous travels Giannis does when he gets bodied down low and doesn't have the fundamentals to move fluidly? Tehy are so obvious.
