      The phrase "worst beat ever" gets tossed around too much but this certainly is a game you could make a case for. I have never ever experienced anything like that in my life.

      Pistons didn't lead by more than 3 until there were 3 minutes and 26 seconds to go. Just think about that for a second. On a +12.5 spread.

      And to cap it off, in a position where I don't think I've ever seen a team shoot (the team that's down often does, but the team leading wuth the shot clock off?), Reggie Jackson dribbles towards the hoop and gives it off for a layup. I honestly and seriously hope that fukker tears his ACL soon.

      In the grand scheme of things, it's only 315 bucks and I'll survive but I'm absolutely fuming about this.

            Bro this one is downright ridiculous though. The amount of ridiculous things that happened down the stretch of that game is almost funny. Sixers going 0 for 4 from the line.

            Detroit players asking for the refs to go review an out of bounds play up 11 with 50 seconds to go (like sseriously what the fukk does it change?)

            Sixers trapping and fouling down 11 with about 40 seconds to go.

            A team shooting with the ball, an 11 point lead and the shot clock off.

            Thankfully as soon as I'll make my next bet I'll sort of forget about it. But I don't think I've ever been on the wrong side of anything more ridiculous than this. Maybe the Clippers/Thunder game 5 ending a couple years ago.

                I didn't watch but I believe you it had to be downright awful. It's like when a team blows a lead they can't accept that they let the game get away from them and they just keep trying when it's already in hand. They'll press, foul, and next thing you know they're down double digits. Just in complete denial of defeat.

                  As for tomorrow, I like the Pacers a lot. Just waiting to see what happens down the stretch of this Clippers/Hawks game.

                    Not even seeing a minute of the game, just the boxscore.
                    Up 5 going into 4th.
                    12.5 spread. Lose 4th by 18, game by 13.

                    Against the juggernaut that is the Detroit Pistons. Sucks ass.

                      It was every bit as inexplicable as you could imagine.

                      Then again, that's like the 15th time the Sixers have done this in the 4th quarter this year.

                        The most staggering thing to me is that they never led by more than 3 until 3'26 left in the game. Like never never.

                        My goodness I can only imagine if I'd had more on this. That's the only thing I'm "thankful" for. You want these awful beats to be on small plays.

                          Pacers-3 -110 (paddy power) (risking 6.6x to win 6x)

                          Hawks were off the west coast trip, came home for a game then go back on the road straight away for a back to back. Just a tough spot for them and Indy sorely needs a win so that doesn't make it any easier.

                          If Atlanta had won today this was a 10 unit play. Scaling it down a tad but still pretty confident about it.

                            The Pacers are so pathetic. They'd be up 20 if they were a decent team. Now they've allowed a team that didn't even feel like showing up tonight to hang around and they might steal the game. Such complete bullshit.

                            Lol at Sefolosha making every shot guy is a total scrub and suddenly can't miss. Unreal.

                                    Thanks man. Wasn't always pretty but at the end of the day they just had to get it done. Kinda saw the advantages and drawbacks of betting a team that desperately needs a win - they'll play hard but do lots of dumb shit due to lack of confidence. The 8 second violation to start the 4th was comedy gold.

                                    Grinding away at it. This play actually puts me in the black all inclusive (live plays, unposted plays) on the season, which is not a bad thing. Only need to win 60 more units to get back to where I was late November

                                      Monta Ellis took over the game down the stretch. Gotta show him some love given how much he's infuriated me at times this year. Today I saw the guy who played in Dallas the last 2 years.

                                          Helps that the Hawks completely and utterly quit.

                                            Thanks. Not sure about that one. Hopefully Melo plays at least. Knicks are 0-5 (probably soon to be 0-6) without him.

                                            I'm gonna be very selective fading the Warriors and Spurs if I do at all in the forseeable future. Anyway, as far as the Spurs are concerned, I kinda have an unwritten rule over the last 3 years to never fade them unless they're playing a good team.

                                            Looking at Orlando tomorrow. Things have predictably fallen apart for them but they'll probably win a game sooner or later and they're getting a couple too many points.

                                              They had zero energy all night long. Which was predictable given the spot they were in. Pacers just inexplicably let them hang around by doing dumb shit.

                                              What Paul George did in that first half was mind boggling. How a star player can pick up such silly fouls is beyond me. Know your value to your team...

                                                Nice hit on Pacers. That was about as bad of a spot that the Hawks could be in.

                                                  Nice hit man. I saw Atlanta go up in the 4th and thought fukk he's in for another dogfight. Then I just saw the final and wow. Great win.

                                                    What do you guys think of the Pistons tomorrow? Cavs have looked pretty shaky since the new coaching hire and probably a letdown spot with the Spurs coming into town on Saturday?

                                                      Ha Pacers went up 11 in the 4th, gave up a 15-2 run to go down 2 then closed 23-2 to win by 19. Go figure.

                                                      Cheers guys

                                                        Certainly worth consideration. Pistons have already beaten the Cavs but I'm not sure if that matters. They've proven to be at least a decent team.

                                                          Why is OKC only laying 7.5 to Houston tomorrow? Feels like it should be 9 or so. Thunder have only lost twice at home all year when Durant has played. The Rockets are shit, probably gonna get exposed again.

                                                            Rockets might win but how many times can we bet that team and then get mad at ourselves?

                                                              I mean Thunder just struggled through their last 3-4 games
