#7 2006 NBA Finals
In the best of seven contest, the Dallas Mavericks were up 2-0 against the Miami Heat in the 2006 NBA Finals and were crushing the Heat in Game 3 before the tables were turned by the referees.

Tom Donaghy, the disgraced controversial referee revealed after serving his sentence. He was found guilty of match-fixing.
As per Donaghy:
"I think basically Dallas basically got screwed out of a championship in that situation because the NBA started to manipulate the series to make sure it was extended, and Dallas could never recover from it…Let’s not forget at that time, Ed Rush was the supervisor of officials. And he hated Mark Cuban’s guts. He absolutely hated Mark Cuban.”
That’s a tough pill to swallow, don’t you think?
