    Done betting the NBA

    Anything. Fantasy. Totals. Spreads.

    Sac vs. Cha

    How can a team of "Professionals" lose a game being up 123-115 with 2 free throws to come from their best player and 1:09 left?

    Not only 2 free throws but and the ball too because it was a flagrant foul

    Charlotte has a young and talented team. Building blocks are in place. Watch this team next couple years.

    If it makes you feel any better I haven't bet NBA in about 8 years. Impossible to handicap crooks.

    @ Sato

    Michael Franzese is one helluva smart guy. Anybody can sign up at his website and become one of "his crew". Every day he puts out a 15-20 minute podcast on mob stories and amazing advice on living a wise life. He's awesome!!!

    and on top of that only 1 point difference as if they said to themselves "job done here guys"
    this reminds me of that scene in the movie "The Gambler" (mark wahlberg rigged a game with a rising star player)

    No

    When you are a professional you should catch a wide open pass in the endzone or a routine flyball regardless of who you are playing against. No kidding, a varsity high school basketball team wins in that spot most of the time.

    Walton's team plays no defense, hard to watch. Buddy Hield missing a free throw when it counted.
    But until walton starts making his guys play defense, victories gift wrapped into losses will continue

    NBA is where "amazing" happens. Atl/Mia were tight all half and tied at 95 with like 2:30 to go. And then Atl managed to lose by 10. Of course I had them +9.5 at halftime.

    No watching the games is actually pretty good advice for sanity's sake.

    That must be why totals are often inflated.

    Had to be .....
    like I said , when I came across this thread
    it made me go and see the actual play by play
    just to see if his anger was warranted
    and absolutely it was

    If you’re talking about point spreads everything is random regardless of the sport you just got a hope you guess right

    The National Football League is no different than the National basketball Association

    How'd everyone like the Bulls foul down 116-112 with 1.6 seconds left? Decided the spread and (early) total with a useless foul. And then they didn't even shoot after the inbounds. So what exactly as the point of fouling?

    lol NBA is a joke

    not betting but reminded about how much these losers don't care ... a team down 30 at half can't even make a dent in the deficit vs a lakers team who didn't give a shit entire 2h

    And then who had the Nets/Spurs under? Nets up 108-98 with 2 minutes left. What happens? 108-108 overtime. 10 straight points. Yep, I had the under.
