    USA/Turkey FIBA Game - Everyone was in on it
    If 20 years from now the story came out how EVERYONE was in on it, the players, the coaches, the refs, the scoreboard operators...

    It would all make so much sense. Everyone was trying to lose and had a different spin on the result... other than the actual spread of course.

    Intentional foul + ball on standard late strategy followed by 4 missed FT's.. I mean... Can't make this sht up.

        rules in FIBA are different. no play at the ball is always intentional faul. And this was clearly good call.

            I watch a lot of Euroball sink... I've seen the call yes, but interesting time to enforce it. That said, of course i'm just joking.....ish...

            But picture that ending with the idea of everyone trying to influence the score AGAINST the ML winner including those trying to throw it.

            You would get that ending, or something close to it.

            Including the guy that had bet the game /2H over... Everyone won, everyone lost.. Everyone was in on everything...

            Except the spread.. FUUck that wasn't even in play after the first 2 minutes.

              yeah same thoughts all the time. I think it is because it is fairly new rule and they are watching every single situation by the book. there was even a spot today , do not remember in which game when referee said it is intentional faul by the 6th criterium . thats says a lot .

              Except the spread.. FUUck that wasn't even in play after the first 2 minutes
              haha

              huge swing in futures . USA +100 , Serbia +150 after this one
