At that point the game was already WAY “over” the over/under. He as just being a ref. Sorry, no grassy knoll on this one.

i think it was more about covering the spread than the winner.

Donaghy could have been trying to help the Warriors win. But I doubt it in this particular instance, because the Warriors got little reffy love that game. The Bulls got the luck of the calls that game, and if any of the refs were trying to make the Warriors win, it would have been easy to never have the game tied at that point to start with.

Marcus,
I was at that game. It was one of the best NBA games I have ever been to. It was such a tremendous back and forth between the two teams up until the very last 3-point-shot in overtime which Ben Gordon rimmed out.

That clip on NYT isn’t proof of anything. Until there is some sort of list or black book that shows which games Dongahy allegedly fixed, these “proofs” look just like a game thats officiated correctly 90% of the time. 3-seconds is a lower-tiered violation; I don’t think refs want to call it judging from all the times I see players parked in the paint.

Wow,..we could have used him in that Wizards/Warriors fiasco where Gilbert Arenas hit three free throws with no time left. Wait a minute! Who was refereeing that game and do you think they,.nah, the commish says Donaghy is the only one.
