The NBA uses replay when a ball goes out of bounds and its hard to tell which player touched the ball last, and also if a shot is close to the shot clock or end of period buzzer, to see if the ball left the players hand in time. The knock on it is that it is being used too much, slowing the game down, and taking away from the rhythm and flow of the game. Also, sometimes teams take advantage of it and essentially it becomes an extra time-out. But people have been saying for years how they believe the NBA is rigged.. a lot if it may have to do with the whole Tim Donaghy betting scandal and the egregious 2002 Western Conference Finals between the Lakers and Kings. But many of those same people who are so sure the NBA is rigged won't entertain the idea that the NFL might be. I say, if one major pro sports league is fixed, they all are.
