The public destroyed Vegas and Local Bookies all around the US with Warriors futures and this game. If Vegas had any influence the Nuggets would of got the last call, but they don't. The NBA Ref intimidated by the home crowd controls everything. The Refs gave the Warriors the ball back at 11.2 with game tied on a 50/50 play. When I just looked at it on DVR, that play never went out of bounds and Faried should of had the tying dunk. It should of been a jump at the very worst.

I don't think the ball being out of bounds in that situation can be reviewed, although it did look like it bounced in bounds and very likely would of led to a dunk. Also, the refs weren't necessarily going to cave to the home crowd, especially with the multiple "ref you suck" chants throughout the gameComment -
If you describe this as a "great season", why in hell did you think they had a chance to win the West?
Mavs fan. Bash away.
And chill also. It's the internet. No need to take what I'm saying so seriously. Rubbing it in is what people do on this site in case you haven't noticed. Part of the game as a fan. If you had bet on them today I would not have taunted you dw. If you don't want to see people bashing your team after a loss, do what I do when my teams lose and just don't check the internet that evening. People are going to bash...Comment -
Are there any big books that offer live betting for huge amounts or is that an online thing?Comment -

Highly doubt it Frost! For starters most people don't mess with futures. However going.into this series even with Gallinari out I doubt the average person was pounding Gsw before this series with most considering the Nugs as superior with the superior coach.Comment -
Just depends. At bookmaker Ive seen $500 limits up to $5,500 limits.Comment -
I used to believe pro sports weren't rigged, but then Tim fukkin Donaghy called me directly on my cell and while trying to sell me his NBA picks, answered all kinds of questions I had about his actual cheating, how much went on, how much still goes on...
Now I'm not saying this game had anything funky going on necessarily, but I will no longer call people crazy when they say NBA is rigged because I've now seen enough evidence and first hand accounts to believe it can happen.Comment -
its the 'ol "i lost so lets say its rigged excuse"

In this game the refs botched two critical calls in a row on the Nuggets in that final 20 seconds. They should of not calls outbounds on Chandler missed because Faried would of had a game tying dunk. The ball clearly never hit the baseline on replay. And then they completely botched the ensuing inbound play where Draymond Green took 6 seconds to get the ball to jack

The only people who've I witnessed that say Sports is rigged is been from losing gamblers. Its been a toss up on who rigs the game, half say Vegas rigs it, the other says the Commissioners and refs. But its a pattern I've experienced over and over as I've never heard winning gamblers claim its all rigged.
But its a good thing, because Ive made a very good living for over 25 years winning money off of players who claim poker is rigged. So please never stop gambling, some of us need your money...Comment -
Uh... You don't seem to understand.
I'm not saying the game 'might' be rigged, I'm saying we have 100 percent proof it IS or at least it WAS rigged completely. Tim Donaghy is one of who knows how many examples. He clearly goes into detail on what and how he rigged games, phantom calls among all kinds of other shit.
You know he was an actual NBA ref for years right? Fixing games and doing what he pleased until he was caught? He 100 percent affected the outcome in many, many games.
So don't sit here and talk like its Santa Claus. Hopefully there's no paid off refs in the NBA today but fact is there HAVE been paid off refs in the past who HAVE rigged point spreads and outcomes, so your argument is moot. At least as far as the NBA goes.Comment -
I win and lose all the time with sports betting. But, the shit is manipulated in ways for certain teams to win. Money is involved. You just have to be on the correct side at times. I don't care what you say about certain "Sports" not being rigged. This discussion is brought up everyday. We as gamblers need to get over the fact that you win some and lose some. Some people/gamblers just don't like losing as much as others. Take your frustration out on yourself or just laugh about it and avoid the decision to make a silly bet the next time around.Comment -
Theres a big differnence between cheating and rigged. Everyone cheats at some point in their lives, like taking steroids is cheating, or players and refs skimming points. But rigged is a whole other level. People will get put away in jail if games were rigged. I don't think the Fix believers fully understand how hugh a undertaking it would be to rig games and the monumental consequences involved at being caugt. Do you really think Stern would risk 20 years to life for rigging this league when hes got a gravy train keeping it legit? Can you comprehend the amount of people that would have to be involved and keep quiet? All it takes is one to blow the whole thing wide open. There would'nt be a Lawyer, Senator or Governor that wouldn't be clamoring to get there cut. But what ever, just please keep believing its all rigged, I'm trying to do your guys a favor. But again, I make a living off you guys, that is, the guys that blame losing on everyone but themselves...so stay in your reality bubble and never change.Comment -
Improper influence placed on a sporting event by the gambling world happens often, in every sport.
Tim Donaghey is not even shocking.
The shit that went down in futbol - is shocking.
The fact that it went public at that mass a scale is proof positive that it is rampant. It's not an "isolated incident". It never has been. But it is at the "officiating" level the majority of the time.
Listen, there is way too much money in it.Comment -

Its not just the home crowd its the money the league makes as well. So many sweeps should have happened but the league won't allow many sweeps especially for some big markets.Comment -
Games are never rigged , just ask all the guys that went to prison for it.Comment -
every single nba game is riggedComment -
lmao conley just called for a block on a chargeComment
2009 went 5 games too if I remember. Surely Stern and the league wanted those series to go 6-7 games... ?
