stop with your conspiracy theories u got too much time on your hands, jerk off do something chit..

lunchbawks · 12-23-12, 07:39 PM

not a theory.. just a super obvious rigjob by the refs

brigade125 · 12-23-12, 07:55 PM

its obviously the refs dictate the game... keep it close... make it exciting for fans and ratings.. and take the public money...

I love Steve Nash, I love to watch him dish, but the OP is correct, if the refs aren't 'controlling' the game, the players show up when they want.

Betting a NBA game is a crap shoot. Me? I'll bet maybe a dozen games a whole season

If u has under or bears 2cnd half in cardinals game. You would swear a blocked field goal run back for a touchdown is fixed too

wonder how many broke sh*t on that play.

Don't listen to bleek bro, that guy is just... literally there is no word. "I guaransheed a spurs or mavericks victory", is his post... wtf is that.

I think you're right in this instance, basketball is really one of the only sports where refs can dictate points scored directly.

Spot on.
I have pointed this out 100 times, watch the ticky tack touch fouls that are called at the start of the fourth quarter.
Casual non betting fan thinks nothing of it, but if there is an unusual amount of insignificant touch fouls at the start of the fourth quarter a team could easily have 4 team fouls before the 7 minute mark, and could easily be shooting 2 shot free throws from 4 minutes until the final horn.

OP was on Wolves ML so that's why he was complaining :P

that's why you shouldn't never cap but follow a system or more systems with proper money management!

this I can believe because good games means more money for the NBA (future ticket sales and watching on tv). A side effect is making bettors win or lose a bet, it is not intentional. For the people that had the so called "rigged" side, well it sure wasn't rigged against them now was it?

Steve Nash > Kenshin in relation to sharpness.

1) I don't cap NBA, I rarely bet it
2) Las Vegas was built on 'systems'
3) Proper money management? Did you read by baseball threads from April to October?
4) I have to get up for work in 7 hours, I'm out. I do wish you a Merry Christmas and hope you cash all your tickets.
5) Peace

I had the Under 36.5(4team parlay...3hit, needed the under to win) and when that blocked FG happened to prevent the Over from happening, I was happy as F!! Then they ran back for TD... are you serious? Its like they just had to get the OVER when they couldnt just take a knee on 4th and let AZ start the drive from their 2yrd line up 22 pts with 2 mins left!
