A conspiracy theorist's delight

Sporting News, The, June 14, 2004 by Fritz Quindt

* A conspiracy theorist's delight: Maybe the NBA should've moved ESPN Radio to the auxiliary press box during The Finals. At courtside for Timberwolves-Lakers Game 6, Brent Musburger and analyst Tim Legler heard referee Eddie F. Rush ask the scorer how many fouls Shaq had after O'Neal was whistled with his fifth.

Musburger faithfully reported the incident; Legler asked why a ref would need to know such a thing. He wouldn't--unless he was protecting a player, or the league's marquee team.
