      they made alot of money off this game.  All those early Rocket bets, and Durant determines massive losses for Bettors.  NBA is corrupt/complicit with injury information process.

    He's a sick twisted F___K up there.

       With Durant vs Lakers w/o Luka and Reeves, Rockets win that game.

    So much for star is out, ball out.. all those guys were on the take tonight. It's a 7 game series, so no big deal right. 

    Nothing like the first four play in games. Those were excellent  basketball games.

    And now we're back to this rigged bullshit. Last night and today, more tomorrow. Just out there playing to the gambling lines. Straight garbage.

      Of all the main sports, NBA clearly is the worst regarding integrity of the product.  It's not even close.  Very difficult to bet on because of factors that you don't have to worry about in the  NHL,. NFL, and MLB.

    you were right except you forgot you were betting the nba.
