Rasheed Wallace claims NBA wanted the Cavs in the finals

It may have only been the end of the exhibition season, but Detroit Pistons forward Rasheed Wallace was in mid-season form.

"I still don't think they (Cavaliers) beat us, we beat ourselves," Wallace said. "And I think we also fell victim to that personal NBA thing where they are trying to make it a world game and get (television) ratings. They wanted to put their darling in there (the NBA Finals) and they did, and look what ended up happening.

"This game ain't basketball anymore, it's entertainment," Wallace said. "It's starting to get like the WWF. There ain't no real wrestling anymore either. It's all fake."

My view. I also believe that many of the sports now a days are staged (Just my opinion). For ratings purposes (Revenue), the NBA, NFL, etc chooses certain teams to win or lose.

Brings me back to the World Series where that hobbling fucker Kirk Gibson hit that homerun against my beloved A's.
 
Staged? Even though I believe it was good to have the Cavs in the finals, I doubt they would have wanted San Antonio in the finals again... a Suns/Cavs finals would have been an offensive explosion.
