    Of course statistics matter but fouling with 7 seconds to go or doing other "shady" things doesn't justify those statistics, it justifies the idea that the NBA is rigged.

    Perhaps it's not 100% rigged but it is rigged, I don't know if it's 50% or 60% or 40% rigged but part of this league is rigged, it's a fact and is proven as well.

    I don't bet on spreads!
    I bet on totals.

    I'm just proving to you the league is rigged, you can try to justify it but facts are facts.
    There are assumptions and there are facts in life and what I'm showing you are facts.

    It doesn't appear you know the meaning of the words fact or assumption.

    What you call shady, is actually part of the game and happens all the time. It appears to be illogical to us armchair quarterbacks, but when you actually try to play a game you do that kind of sh.t in the heat of the moment. Anyhoo, this is hopeless.

    I don't disagree with you.
    Out of all the ones here you seem to be the one who makes most logic out of it.

    I'm just saying there will be shady things that are not genuine, that's all, I don't think we disagree.

    Not shady

    What it proves is line movement and getting good numbers is critical

    For all you newies out there. Vegas does a lot of psychological gambling warfare. How people will react if this team plays that team with this spread. Then they use these statistics and adjust the lines accordingly. Same thing with totals. Lots of statistics involved. Some are closer than others.

    And then they call Drummond via embedded chip in his brain and tell him to foul Hibbert with 10 secs left in garbage time.

    How exactly do you "check cash" ? I assume after each game there are Vegas mules waiting for players with suitcases of cash to pay for the fix, flying directly from Costa Rica.

    I watched that game. Drummond didn't foul him. Hibbert was in the lane with the ball. Got tango and on Drummond's back and ref call foul on Drummond.

    Not a Lakers fan. Had money on them and was tortured for 2.5 hours cause Kobe couldn't buy a basket to blow this game open til the end.

    So willingness to perform is definitely linked to fixing? So all these homies fix games? What if two players on the same team are part of the opposite fix? What if your opponent is part of the opposite fix you're on? lol. There is fixing in sports, BUT people in here act like every damn game is fixed to the exact point.

    The NBA Refs are like the next millennium mafia out there.

    All you brainiacs out there need to take a good look at how many wires these refs have on them. Microphones etc.

    Why the fuk do they need all of these things?

    Why the fuk must teams take a mandatory timeout each quarter?

    It's to change momentum... and game planning.

    All rigged.

    I got Lakers/Detroit over 180.0 live at Pinny and if the game was rigged, thank you Pistons for fouling all the way to the end.

    Every year you post this here and on covers and every year it looks stupider and stupider -- Phil Jackson says the refs are effecting the game (WHICH THEY DO) but somehow that means it is RIGGED? Why would anyone rig a game to fall 1 to 2 points near a line? That would mean every frigging teaser wins? What value is there in that? What book wants to cash parlays and teasers? Cqan you start a new avataer called

    "DON'T KNOW HOW TO POST"

    Please?
