    Duke will score 90+ SDSU better slow the pace to a crawl if they expect to have a chance.

    My uncle knows a bookie and they have been friends for 40 years. His bettors throw 5,000-20,000 around like nothing. Doctors, lawyers along with average guys. Most of them lose. How much you bet isn't indicative of how good you are. Most likely those are degenerates or have money to lose

    Not a terrible bet IMO.

    11/1 odds for a group of 18 year olds to slip up on vacation in Hawaii to a long & athletic team that can shoot the 3 and will be playing their hearts out... crazier things have happened.

    Agreed... My brother is wealthy not rich.. He doesn't know anything about sports and he has a local guy he bets with , with the guys from his firm. They bet 5-20k like I bet $50 on a game.

    It's difficult for a sharp to get 10k down on a game anywhere in LV; most likely he's a square with money to burn.

    Taking the points is not bad. But putting that much on the points is bad.

    Duke Blue Devils freshman Zion Williamson joins Scott Van Pelt to recap the No. 1 team in the country’s 90-64 victory vs. San Diego State in the first round of the Maui Invitational, what it’s like to practice under Coach K, getting to play in Maui and his monster windmill dunk in the second half on Monday.
