[SBRtv]

Former NBA ref Tim Donaghy called in to the SBR.tv studios last week to do a phone interview with SBR.tv's Peter Loshak. Loshak questioned Donaghy about his past experiences as an NBA ref betting on NBA games, Donaghy's opinions on sports betting and NBA betting in general, and what he thinks we might expect from the NBA in the 2010 playoffs and Finals, as well as next year's regular season. In 3 parts.




Part 1: Experiences and Opinions on Reffing Games
Topics include what Donaghy did and didn't do while an NBA ref, what the NBA could do to fix the problem of ref bias in the future, and Donaghy's recent 13-1 run of success picking NBA playoff games.




Part 2: Sports Betting in General
Topics include Donaghy's opinions on the legalization of sports betting in the U.S., and possible overcompensation by the NBA in response to his accusations. Loshak and Donaghy also make fun of the ESPN interviewer who knew little about sports betting.




Part 3: The 2010 Playoffs and '10-'11 Regular Season
Topics include the 2010 NBA playoffs and next year's regular season.

[Holtgetsback]

Tim Donaghy is a liar

He fixed totals ...

He dictated the pace of the game

Great stuff

[Chi_archie]

that can't really be him can it?

[Fishhead]

The NBA is a travelling circus.

Hope the guy profits from the book, as I'm sure he is a degenerate of the highest proportions and will need to make side money to supply his addiction.

[btraband]

he likes to hear himself talk and believes himself too

[jjgold]

Should be good

I dill watch later

[Wrigley]

[pico]

wow, this is big timer interview. peter lohsak finally got someone who is relevant to gambling. i'll watch this tomorrow.

[Rio DiNero]

Donaghy going tout?

[SBR Lou]

This was too cool. Agree with the poster that suggested Donaghy should make a guest appearance at the 2010 SBR Vegas Bash, but that may be a long-shot to borrow a gambling term.

[LT Profits]

that can't really be him can it?

Never underestimate the power of Lostache

[Dank_Fire]

Unreal....i never thought i would see this

[pavyracer]

Wow SBR went from interviewing a legend like Shantystar to a scumbag like Donaghy. Larry King is fuming!!

[tealish]

is this legit? not doubting sbr's integrity, but people have been duped before.

[sharpcat]

Holy cow!!! the guy was hitting at an 80% rate including picks on games that he ref'd in

Wow did he really go 13-1 I have never heard of anybody other than the great Brandon Lang going 13-1

This guy is a piece of shit on every level, just think of all of the people who made solid bets on games just to have this piece of shit screw them out of a good bet

[PDW]

will have to watch later
