Hardly surprising if true, but can you trust anything this guy says? Cast out by the NBA and his former ref friends.

that's the question.

Is what he says believable though? Put it this way, I wouldn't say 100% it isn't.

Chris Paul and Doc Rivers will tell you 100% it is. I think it is...

I might be biased myself if I had a bad experience with a player or coach. Especially if they went to the press after the game and screamed indignation about the terrible job I did at work lol.
