Let's just say that I believed that the league/refs wanted to rig the playoffs, to make sure that the lakers got to the Finals. I don't believe that, but let's just say... They're there, now. The league has gotten the maximum amount of ratings/TV revenue out of the lakers/LeBron that they're going to get, this season. There's literally no further incentive for them to help the lakers win, at this stage.
But, accusing the league/refs of conspiring to make sure that the lakers win is a handy way to ensure that, no matters in the series, you get to be right. Like I said, a heady play.
