I know Vit, I was just funnin' with you.
My question was directed at Goldy.
If Embid has never, as in ever played a full season, why would one lay ridiculous -400 (4 to 1) on him winning the MVP if he can never finish a season, or at very best play a full season.
That's something Corky would do, lay 4 to 1 on a player who has MVP potential but will never win an MVP because he won't play enough games because of injury.
I'll go one better.
If Corky ever did lay 4:1 on Embid winning the MVP and lost the bet because he missed the last 28 games or so he would blame his loss on the injury, and I'd be like "Well Corky you knew he was injury prone before you made the bet, it's your fault, not his"
And then (hypothetically of course, of course) Corky would respond to me "Dumb shit, he would have won if he didn't get hurt"
And I would say something like "Yeah, I'm a dumb shit, just not the dumb shit who made that loser bet"
I know this first hand, I got the same routine when he bet the stupid Knicks no to make the playoff prop bet.
I explained to him "that's not a good bet based on the standings, games left, etc.
So after proving out the math and after the Knicks indeed made the playoffs he says to me "they're trash, Atlanta crushed them in the playoffs"
And I said to him "I never said the Knicks were all that" I just said they will make the playoffs, now Corky if you had bet to make the playoffs but get ousted in the first full round, they yeah, you would have won, but that wasn't the bet"
Vit?
Would you lay those odds on him winning a MVP award know Embid's fragile history?
