Sometimes they let them play and overlook many obvious fouls and other times they blow the whistle constantly. Funny how you see big line movement on totals! Sucks to watch and even harder to handicap, TOO MANY BAD BEATS. I stopped betting basketball and just situational bet, been much more effective for me and much more peace. Too many games and bad beats not conducive to bankroll and lack of peace and joy.

    google Tim Donaghy in your spare time.

    NBA is def rigged. its very obvious.

    i personally dont give a fukk if sports are rigged so long as i am on the right side.

    regardless if a game is rigged you still have a 50% chance of winning that game.

    now do your homework and you will bump that 50% to 70%

    I wasn't on E. Washington and I was on UCLA. Just interesting is all. The judgment calls that have decided some of these final scores.

    the gtown dunk can be attributed to them wanting to stuff it in the other coaches face who guaranteed a win

    Yup. Refs showing it in the providence game also. All game phantom calls so Dayton scores points at FT line.

    Lol I was on Dayton tonight and I owe the refs some coin for helping me cash. 14 Free throws to 0 free throws for Providence in 1st half lmao + 2 phantom technicals on providence.

    people are missing the point of this thread. If you can't see that the officiating has been super shady than you're blind. It's way worse this year than in recent years

    I've always maintained its not as bad as some believe like the 10 daily threads made on topic. However I'm not naive either and realize this is a business with major $ on line. Truth somewhere in middle but is what it is

    Everything is fixed once your play loses. You never see a thread about a fix on the same game when your play wins.

    Like hey I had Valpo +4.5 and Maryland got screwed by the refs at end. I'd just cash my ticket and keep betting the fixed tourney.

    I was pulling for Providence (didn't have any money on the game either way) and I'll give you that refs were being partial to Dayton but that's not the reason the Friars lost...they played as bad as I have seen them all year long...they constantly missed wide open looks at 3's and they weren't hitting their FT's when they got to the line...truth be told, they played like shit and deserved to lose!...

    Lol. Lets see. Billion dollar industry. Millions being bet on the games every week. SPORTSBOOKS dont care if they make money - sure. Im sure its all on the up and up. Sportsbooks will surely leave everything up to chance as to whether or not they make money on games. Why do you think NBA is now lobbying for legalized sports betting? All in on it together as it is.

    That said you have the choice to quit betting on the games. I just accept it for what it is personally. Has really ruined sports for me tho as its obvious when watching the games

    The point of the thread is legit. But at the same time you either need to accept it for what it is or quit betting. No point in bitching about it.

    Spoiler gets it! We live in a world filled with corruption and our country is among the best at it. Politics/Gov, Wall st, etc and even charity organizations some of the biggest hustlers out there luring people's bleeding hearts in to their scams. But somehow in an industry built on cheats/deceit and tilting odds (gambling)from all sides sports has somehow avoided the trappings lol. Believe what you want I guess no corruption in sports and Santa is real and Mary was a virgin

    Its a fix whether you win or lose, just have to identify it before the game

    I think the ultimate point here is this . If there were less rules in college basketball. if referees were reduced to peacemakers more than anything and I were just: make a shot, score points . Do you think lines makers would look like such geniuses? I know it's far fetched but each and every year there's new little tweaks to the rule books that give refs even more control over the game than ever before. The example of the Georgetown kid dunking to me is just a 20 year old kid making statement . But I'm still young at 28 and can remember a time when guys could just play . when I'm 40 are these entire games going to be spent at monitors reviewing every little thing about the game?

    Except I said I was on UCLA +4 and that was a terrible call that fukked SMU backers. So...yes, I feel I have been objective and while my cries of "rigged" are more in line with the SBR Poker chant, this tourney has been suspect with the refs' finger prints all over some of these games.

    Yes, most sports are fixed. Only degens and losers think it's not.

    I want you all to watch the game of Ark_vs_NCarolina. By hook or crook, Ark will cover the spread( +4.5).

    Boggles my mind that so many gamblers think things are FIXED or rigged. If that's the case why you jerk offs continue to bet and complain when you lose. Your PERCEPTIONS and thoughts CREATE your reality therefore reinforcing your belief that gambling is fixed. Stop and think about it. I enjoy the races occasionally , every time I go same FUKING degenerates losing all the time and complain FIX. Then don't FUKING bet then. Not naive to believe everything is legit but that mindset CREATES a LOSERS MENTALITY! And to have a world view that everyone and everything is corrupt, stay far away from me because I live in an ABUNDANT UNIVERSE and I CHOOSE to CREATE my life experiences. Mind,body, SPIRIT fellas.

    Man saiid he's tired of seeing all the water whipped calls and control on the game... As time grows on, I'm sure it won't get better either, and I agree with niņo on what he's saying... He's accepting truth, some want to accept a lie, win or lose, doesn't make a difference. So for you to say " it creates a losers mentality " is your perception ... Some just want to lose/win fairly, why I thought they don't let sports players take enhancers like steroids ... Ironic

    It took until the 2nd half for Cincy to shoot their first free throws. VERY physical game. No consistency. Kentucky at the line 2:1 to Cincy.
