    Vegas was behind the All-Star game
    I did not place any bet on the All-Star game, but once again we see how the bookies (in Vegas) can bring in any results they want, the players are just chess-players, they don't play for real, they just do what they're told.
    If you would see the game, check out how many times players with the balls were given a free-road to shoot, to make a slam-dunk, not that I have anything against a nice game and a nice show, but have you seen what was the final score?

    East - 119
    West - 146

    In Total? 265 points!

    You got it right, the Under/Over was 264.5 and some bookies had it 1 point above or under.
    How can the bookies guess exactly how many points they will score? Are they prophets? Did you see the players playing like a prize would be given to them if they will win?

    It was like 1st quarter, they scored only 61 points, so the coaches in both sides took them aside and told them "listen, we're here to give a certain number of points, so stop guarding, let anyone who wants to score to score, otherwise Vegas would be upset and we don't want that".

    I can swear that exactly what happened, yet I haven't placed any bet on this game, but just my 2 cents.

    Peace.

          They were the only ones who scored, the East tried to score but the ball didn't get in, so Vegas gave them the opportunity to win the game, because they need to have a certain number of points, and better to let the West to win, but get that 265.

                        Lebron threw the ball off the backboard, while the whole west team watched him dunked the ball. The only thing these players cared about were the whores they were going to fvck after the game.

                          They don't need to play defense.
                          The game could ended with 300 points in total, but instead, 265 lol, gimme a break, if that's not fixed then Jessica Alba ain't chick.

                          It was FIXED, the whole match was a big FIXED match, I will say it again, FIXED, because Vegas like to screw people, they need more money to decorate their big hotels/houses/god knwos what.

                              No shit, genius. That's what they do in all star games. They don't ref, they don't play defense, and they try to make as many spectacular dunks as possible. It's a show, not a game. Have you never seen an all star game before? Jesus.

                                    Are people really surprised by the sh1t that went on? Do you really think the players care about this Sh1t? All allstar games suck, they should just get rid of them, and give the players a short vacation, home filed goes to the team that picked up the most STDS over break.

                                      So it's fixed because it went a half a point over instead of 35? That makes perfect sense. You are retarded.

                                            The only genuine and legit All-Star Game is MLB. The players are actually playing to win and it has significance in regards to the post season. NFL, NBA and NHL All-Star Pro Bowl games, whatever, are a joke.

                                              Palming and carrying the ball is a violation and a turnover Einstein. The refs didn't call it.

                                                  Even though the MLB all-star game has home field in the WS riding on it, it is still a joke, half pitchers show up but cant pitch, half the players dont want to be there, home field should be decided by the best record, and not some gimmick because Selig is trying to make up for the tie in 2002. This is not 1949 the all-star game does not matter.

                                                    If you would see the game, check out how many times players with the balls were given a free-road to shoot, to make a slam-dunk, not that I have anything against a nice game and a nice show, but have you seen what was the final score?

                                                    East - 119
                                                    West - 146

                                                    In Total? 265 points!

                                                    You got it right, the Under/Over was 264.5 and some bookies had it 1 point above or under.
                                                    How can the bookies guess exactly how many points they will score? Are they prophets? Did you see the players playing like a prize would be given to them if they will win?

                                                    It was like 1st quarter, they scored only 61 points, so the coaches in both sides took them aside and told them "listen, we're here to give a certain number of points, so stop guarding, let anyone who wants to score to score, otherwise Vegas would be upset and we don't want that".

                                                    I can swear that exactly what happened, yet I haven't placed any bet on this game, but just my 2 cents.

                                                    Peace.
                                                    Dude you don't know what you're talking about

                                                    The O/U for this game started at 263 IIRC, and went up to 264. That means people were pounding the OVER.

                                                    If the game was rigged, wouldn't it be rigged to be UNDER 264?

                                                    Also, Vegas moves lines so they can get equal (or close to equal) action on both sides. IN THEORY, 50% of people win, and 50% lose, so who's being screwed here?

                                                    This wasn't a case like last year's Superbowl when the public pounded the Giants and ended up fcking Vegas. The O/U in the NBA All-Star games doesn't get a lot of action so why would they try to rig this game?

                                                    If I'm wrong about this then tell me why, but seeing how you think the NBA all-star totals are rigged, I expect this post to go wayyyy over your head.

                                                          i never said the over was rigged, I was using sarcasm.

                                                                  Goodness.

                                                                  Do you know in which continent is Korea located?

                                                                  I recall 25% of Americans had a survey and were asked where Korea is located on the map and they said it's on the East coast of United States.

                                                                  Maybe it's not a rumor after all and Americans are really dumb.

                                                                  YES, 265 points in total, what's so hard to understand? If you believe Vegas are prophets then fine, I believe in logic, and logic says a game shouldn't end just like that on the line that Vegas has offered, they are not prophets, they fixed the game, just like many other games.

                                                                  I think betting on US sports is a suicide, at least in Europe when players play and the game is tight they don't let the clock run out, instead they actually play around with Free-Throws, not thinking what Vegas would say about the Over/Under line. They just try to win the game, just as it is.

                                                                  Only in Vegas world Lakers can lose to Clippers and next day beat Orlando.
