I have no $ on the line, but wasn't the Rookie/Soph game total set at 245? 

It was on pace for under and in the final 3 minutes, no one played D and they wound up with 40 points LOL...22s left and they dribble it out.....

Could not have been scripted any better than this.......wow.....

that was really BS, last 3 minutes no one defended, they were all walking at mid court....as soon as they hit 245 no one tried to score again.....=\

yall are paranoid. The rookie game is not fixed. Nobody ever plays defense. They are fucking around the whole time and when it is a blowout there is no reason for the game to tighten up....

That's how all these games have played out over the past years. Last few minutes when it is a blowout they start the showtime.

yea you would think they would be jammin it to the end...it did seem really strange how the end of that game played out...plus they actually played d on gibson to not give him an open look a 12th 3 pointer...instead he had to take some ridiculous half court shot. It doesnt bother me because i had the sophomores -13 which went well...didnt touch the o/u tho. hope not too many of you guys got screwed

The NBA is the most corrupt sports organization in America.It's so blatant and obvious that one of their refs actually got caught. Successful NBA handicapping is being on the right side of the fix.
Bettor beware!

Wow, a competent thought about fixing. I'm shocked. You guys are honestly the most paranoid bunch of degenerates if you seriously think the Rookie/Sophomore game is fixed.

I do not think it was fixed, just incredibly strange. I am not disappointed in my push, given that I thought I was going to lose the bet. However, who runs out the clock in an all star game? Let alone play tough D on the last possession?  After they hit 245 with over 20 seconds left, I just assumed i got lucky and that my bet was gonna be a win not a push. Odd ending in my opinion.

yes was definitely a strange ending that they decided to run the clock out like a real game and screwed around for 39 minutes and 40 seconds

Yep, and it's an All-star game.  You have to expect that shit.

that was just the weirdest ending ever......

on pace to hit 230 or so with 3 mins left and then all of a sudden they score 30+ in the last 3 mins and as soon as they hit 245, they run out the last 22s LOL....
