Lol, you clearly were not watching the game. Bum.

I wasn't . But losing a cover with 5 seconds left is far from a horrible beat... Anything can happen. It's gambling

No. It's a horrible beat 75-53 at half time. Then the Wizards have 2 points with about 4 minutes left in the 3rd quarter. They they're up 9 with 6 seconds left. I think it was 2 missed FT and a turnover with the Bucks making a layup to end the game and lose by 7...

Since when is -8 not safe with a 22 point lead at halftime?

Dallas had a 30 point lead at home last night and almost lost... Nothing's safe in the NBA .

I get it. Point is, it's a shit beat.

NavsPicks · 03-09-14, 02:04 AM

Anyone have a video of this

Spreads are sharp. Just random BS at the end. Fixes would not come down to last minutes plays, it would be settled before that.

I watched the final minute and I basically observed what was obviously an attempt to simply cover the spread. Bucs were not even remotely trying to foul with 30secs left down by 7. then, when wiz went up by 9, oh no, we need to foul now? huh, why? Ariza misses first free throw, Last free throw goes in but is was called off for jumping the lane. huh, how can you jup the lane on a made free throw? which would have made it 10 point lead, instead 9. So, bucks down 9 with 5 seconds left. Do they inbound the ball and let it go. no, of course not. They call timeout, inbound the ball from half court. Now being down 9 you'd think they go for a three pointer right? No, we just go for a layup to cover the spread at -7 instead of -8. . I generally don't subscribe to "conspiracy" theories but I also don't believe in coincidence , especially when teams don't stop clock while they are covering and stopping clock to make a pointless lay-up. Also, Cavs game yesterday was a joke. Knicks were clearly the play if you watched that game the refs were so blatant it's ridunculous.

That game was definitely fixed. They also fouled and called time out with 11 seconds to go down 9. That doesn't happen in the nba. They always just let it run out.

I watched the end of game and ended up with a push at -7. Could not believe the lane violation call no ref calls that at end of game unless they have action on the game. Refs have bet on NBA in past and I'm sure its going on now!!!!!

Ever think that an average guy like Pachulia is just delighted to get 2 free points to get his avg up?

You guys are pathetic.

RavensFan2k3 · 03-09-14, 09:00 AM

Vegas wins? So did I...had Bucks +8.5

steelerpunkie · 03-09-14, 09:37 AM

i had the wiz at -6.5 bought the points

gasto · 03-09-14, 03:35 PM

Its all fixed man. I think if you just bet games where the half time score difference is do far from the full game spread you would be ok. It always reverts to the mean. I dont but that Spreads are sharp. Do you think if these Odds maker set Spreads but did not make them official, how many games would be coming so close to the set spreads and game totals. The variance would be much wider
