    Atlanta +3.5 has gotta be the worst beat in history of gambling

    I had Chicago but holy moly if you had ATL



    ATL was up 108-105 with 1:50 to go
    Chicago makes it 108-107 with 46 seconds to go
    Chicago gets 3 pt play with 15 seconds to go to make it a 2 point lead
    ATL misses a shot - Javonte green makes 2 free throws
    ATL misses last shot



    ATL missed last 5 shots after making like 70% of shots in the half

    literally the only way they could lose is if bulls hit a 3 pointer or 3 point player - then get a rebound, make 2 free throws and ATL misses last shot


    the odds of all these things happening is like 1%

    Yeah it was a tough bad beat, not a historical bad beat, but a bad one.

    Nope.

    I can tell you a story how Atlanta burnt a 1Q ticket once like this.
    Atlanta was - .5 (half point favorite) to win the 1Q
    They were up four points in the 1Q with 1.1 seconds left.
    And wound up giving up five points in 1.1 seconds.

    A million to shot.

    OP is a troll.

    I knew this thread wasn't going to live up to the title based on its author.

    How in the hell did that happen in 1 second?

    Let me give it a go- When they inbounded, he catches and hits a 3 (or gets fouled) then must have been a steal and a layup or a foul? Hard to see all that happening in 1.1 seconds. Not saying it isn't possible just trying to picture it.

    I remember back in the 90's when the Bulls were down 9 with 7 seconds and somehow Jordan scored 11 and they won. Don't recall exactly how it happened but I do know I was in shock

    Pretty close.

    Last year, Knicks/Hawks.
    Hawks up four, 1.1 seconds left in the quarter.
    Randle on the foul line for NYK, like I said, down four points.
    Randle hits both free throws, Hawks now up two, still 1.1 on the clock.
    Even I said to myself, "what could possible go wrong"
    If I wasn't watching it I wouldn't have believed it.

    (As they used to say on Dragnet, only the names have been changed to protect the innocent)

    Regular Joe Smith on the SBR boards had Hawks 1Q, that's how I know this.
    Hawks guard (I forgot who, wasn't Young though) inbounds under his basket, throws this wounded duck, dying quail floater right to Randle (again) right before the horn sounds Randle heaves a desperation at the buzzer three point shot, wait for it...wait for it... that's correct, nothing but net at the end of the 1Q.

    Knicks score five points in 1.1 seconds.

    1% chance (1 in 100) is the worst beat in history which include millions of events?

    Thanks for the visual. I would say that has got to be one of the worst bad beats for sure. You had to be sitting there in disbelief. Unreal!
