Man, to be real..The NBA is rigged!!..OKC should have beat The Pacers in this Game 6 and won the series!!...The NBA wanted this to go to a Game 7 for money and ratings!!...This is a rigged series!!....That's crazy!!
When someone says this I ask, who's doing the rigging and who's involved?

Did someone contact SGA and Jalen and tell them not play as hard or not try to win?

Based on the way OKC played it definitely seems rigged, but how?
 
Eh…Not saying OKC did this but some teams “lay down” on the road in game 6 so they can have a chance to win game 7 in front of their home crowd.
I've seen that happen plenty of times, some teams save their energy for last when they return home is when the energy changes to the point they beat the team worst like how the away team did them.

So, that's why some people want to think it's rigged.

Yep and they may never do it. Those 2000s Spurs and Pistons teams just couldn’t do it. It was always low rated. Pacers will always be what they are. I think maybe SGA can develop into one. He’s missing that aura that guys like Ant has.
I also think those above teams in the 00s played a boring form of basketball as well! Those series were ugly and barely scoring! And even their players were boring. So yea they definitely hard time attracting those type of fans. I think these teams are a lot more entertaining and interesting…

I'll put it this way, pacers and OKC are 2 teams that are hard to hate with neither team has a villain that we want to root against to see lose. So, you would hear people saying it doesn't matter who wins the championship, some will also say they want OKC to win it since they have more talent while others would say they want pacers to win it because of being the underdog. I say this to say that there's no right or wrong answer of which team win it all on Sunday.

hey at least you got us back with LeChoke
 

He has no choice but to be excited to matter where he goes because he already got paid. I'm sure he doesn't care about playing for that team because he gotta say this in front of everyone to pretend he's happy about it.
