I knew the NBA was rigged

We now have YouTube proof the NBA is rigged.  Read this article and watch the video and you'll see the NBA put Patrick Ewing in New York when the league needed a superstar in a big market really bad. Its so freaking obvious Stern looks and picks the envelope with the crease first.  I was watching and was speachless.  And here's the clincher, when NY is anounced the TV anouncer says, "The horseshoe worked, basketball is back in New York City my friend".

I knew the NBA was rigged, I just knew it.  It should be of note that the NBA no longer televises the lottery ball drawing, they just give us the results from a closed off room.
