    NBA referees have stolen $850 from me last night!

    I had a bet of UNDER 202.5 on this game and those referees have made me lose a 275 GBP bet to win 250 GBP ... In total I've lost here 525 GBP which is in today's value around $850 USD.

    Here is a copy of my bet slip:


    And the video:

    It was the right call. Believe you me I'd love to be the one to call out when something funny is happening. It just sucks cuz it was the technical basket which made the over hit.

    It's freaking 6 seconds to go man ... just call a foul and give the guy 2 free throws ...
    You know how many times the refs ignore what happens in the last few seconds of the game?

    It sucks ...
    Anyway I had another bet UNDER Lakers-Kings to cover that loss ... but still, I felt like dedicating the time to post this and upload the video to Youtube because it just sucks ... they gave the bulls free 3 points in the last seconds of the game ... also somebody was shouting "hurry up" as if they intentionally wanted this to happen.

    So many bets are decided by which way the ball bounces in the last minute. That's gambling.

    why were the Clippers actually trying to score in those last 20 secs? a 36 points win was not enough?

    It's normal they do, they play ball ... my biggest question is why that block was counted as goal-tending ?
    There are lots of mysterious things about the NBA ... I just need to suck it up.

    U're unlucky that the bulls even bothered with the last possession. Garbage time, many teams will just let the clock run out. Brutal way to lose the over, feel your pain bud. Better luck nxt time.

    These jerkoff threads crying refs cheated are getting old.
    Betting an NBA total is one of the worst bets you can make. No edges in any totals in any sports really except hockey.
    Unless you are getting +100 or better on your wagers, it's a waste and a horrible bet.

    he was hanging on rim and tried to block shot. Easy goal-tending call. Refs got the call right. When the score is at 200 with 1 minute to go, and the over and under is 202.5 - be prepared for some side to feel bad. Happens every night at least once a night. But to make a post about this is just plain childish. Grow up and accept your defeat. Sorry, but if you gamble...you have to expect things like this. It's apart of the game. But I do hope you better luck on your next bet.

    Did you bet this in-play? Because the total was only 193.5/194 pregame.
