Nope. Everything's on the level in the NBA. Nothing to see here.

hawley · 04-09-12, 09:37 PM

didn't watch but not surprised really.

Inkwell77 · 04-09-12, 09:39 PM

the play before where they waste 6 seconds while down by 4 makes much less sense than not fouling with 1 second left.

I imagine there are alot of bookies in Queensbridge. Ron is making cash ;p.

brainfreeze0 · 04-09-12, 09:40 PM

Conley has been involved in some strange finishes this season.

Conley's fishiness is well-documented. He's at the top of the "suspect" list as far as I'm concerned.

The only reason I started wagering was because I was convinced games are fixed. I was never a sports fan, and never someone who needed the rush. I just felt it was common sense that games were fixed. 90% of games go through the same kind of pattern, and it's so easy see where it goes.

I want to know how we can use this info to make money. The 90% naive idiots who don't believe its fixed can stay and handicap all they want, I don't care. But us guys should be able to band together and make some money.

I have a feeling Utah will now cover the original number but lose SU to SA.

Watch.

Pauulzcappin · 04-09-12, 10:09 PM

It wasn't Conley, it was OJ Mayo.

My personal favorite was a few years ago. 5 team parlay, all 4 hit. Raptors gotta be within 7, down 5 with less than a minute to play. Calderon goes over half, then randomly runs back and gets called for the over and back. Other team scores. Coming back up court, makes a cross court pass with nobody there, out of bounds, other team scores to be up 9 and parlay crushed.

It happens.

PaperTrail07 · 04-09-12, 11:07 PM

that was a ******* joke and I didnt lose a dime on that game

Landrew · 04-10-12, 12:23 AM

It happens. It happens a lot when I bet.
World Peace, I wanted that over but needed NOLO +3.5. Thanks for trying though.

your an idiot, go troll on some other forum

lmao... how moronic can a human being be o believe the entire first 47.6 minutes of the game are designed to setup for it to be that close, etc.If the game was fixed they wouldnt let them come down to something so miniscule. Also heres a question. For all the games in the week, how many did something "weird happen in the last 30 seconds". And what exactly is something weird??? Someone hitting a shot, making a foul, making a turnover??? That happens all the time, HELLO. Now that being said I am sure fixes happen sometimes. I am also sure THEY DO NOT take place in the manner that you read all the time here on SBR. "He hit a 3 at the buzzer, game was fixed". Are you people for real???

I was talking to Calderon after that game. I asked him what was up with those turnovers, and he said "There's this dude called superjeff24 who posts on SBR, and he had this 5 team parlay going, and he's hit the first 4 and he only needed us to cover 5 points to win it, so I decided to **** it up for him."

Yep, that's what happens.

1. You guys have all heard most NBA players in press conferences. Do we seriously think that the majority of them are intelligent enough to rig an entire league without it being blatantly obvious?

2. If the ending of a game is rigged, then as warriorfan said, the preceeding 47.5 minutes need to also be "following the plan" to get it to the point where 1 turnover can swing the entire result.

3. There are 2 teams playing in this sport. If 1 team is working for a rigged result, they also need the other team to "play ball". There is no way in hell that teams are both working towards a fixed result. "Hey Dwight, stop blocking my shots man. I thought we agreed we're going for the over?" This isn't wrestling.

4. Timeouts are mic'ed up and televised. Has anyone ever seriously listened to a coach's 20 second timeout play-call and heard him say "right, we're down by 4, so we don't want to hit this last-second shot otherwise we'll cover the spread"??? Nope.

These guys get paid astronomical amounts of money to play a sport that they love. In order to make it to the NBA, you have to show that you have sheer talent, pride in your game, absolute killer instinct and an unwaivering determination to win. Anyone who thinks that these guys have any other thought in their head other than to hit shots and win games is out of their mind. You cannot win money betting on this sport if you think the outcome is predetermined.

Sure, I've had bad beats where I lost big bucks because Nate Robinson chucked up a meaningless last-second 3 (for example), but this is sports betting. This is an example of a guy who is thinking of nothing other than put the ball through the hoop.

brainfreeze0 · 04-10-12, 04:33 AM

I lost the bet so the only obvious solution is it was rigged. Of course according to the genius up top we're the 10% (a figure he pulled right out of his ass) naive idiots who just can't see it's fixed. If it were fixed You would have had many a whistle blower over the years of players who were approached to "Play ball". No way what something that big be ept that tight a secret by every team in the NBA lmao.
