No one deserves to have the refs make obviously wrong calls to give your oponent multiple attempts to make a last second shot to give the opponent the game. 

And this predates pros playing the game. 

Well I'm pretty sure all Soviet athlets where actually paid pretty well by the government so they actually kinda where professional athletes. 

Well yes, there's that.  The Soviet's were cheating there too :P

But the last seconds of that game were the most brazen rigging of a game in basketball history.  Virtually none of the players on the US team have accepted their silver medals.  And many have forbidden their children from accepting them.  It was that bad.
