Like most of us, Metta World Peace—who, yes, is actually still in the NBA with the Los Angeles Lakers—has had enough of the "NBA is rigged" chatter after Thursday's Game 6 of the Finals. It's a ridiculous argument. Yes, refereeing is suspect sometimes, especially when it's under a microscope with millions glued to their televisions watching the NBA Finals. But there is no grand scheme in the NBA offices to make sure one team triumphs over another.

You can take it from here, Metta.

Allow Professor World Peace to further explain on the whiteboard.

As you've surely heard by now, Ayesha Curry initially supported these conspiracy theories. After Game 6 Thursday night, Ayesha sent off a tweet that accused the NBA of plotting for a Cavs win. Surprisingly, some people actually agreed with her.

Most rational objective basketball fans didn't, though. Just take it from Charlotte Hornets forward Frank Kaminsky.

I'm the biggest conspiracy theorist that I know... That being said anyone saying the Finals are rigged is a fool

World Peace, formerly known as Ron Artest, is an unrestricted free agent. He earned a minimum contract with the Lakers this year and appeared in 35 games, averaging 5.0 points per game.
