W2FY @ Nite: Tim Donaghy reviews the officiating for NBA Finals Game 1.

Tim Donaghy, the former NBA referee who spent 11 months in prison for relaying inside information to gamblers, will review the performance of his former colleagues during the NBA Finals.

A few things stand out: Kobe is clearly getting different treatment from everyone else. Doc Rivers was all over the officials last night, complaining about Kobe’s habit of carrying the ball and about all the calls he was getting that Rajon Rondo, Ray Allen, and Paul Pierce were not. Derek Fisher and Rasheed Wallace are going to cause major problems in the series moving forward and should be watched closely. Wallace is smart and can tell his team isn’t getting the same calls as Kobe, and Fisher will keep on flopping and doing the little things to annoy Boston. Check it all out with video here.

    Funny. Rasheed was suspended by the NBA for seven games for threatening Tim Donaghy when he was a Trailblazer back in 03.

    Yeah, I want to see his report on Game 2. The officials are ruining the playoffs like last year. Bill Simmons did a great piece on it last year.
