If you were as smart as you claim to be, you wouldn't be crying about the NBA being rigged.
I don't think the refs had anything to do with the Bucks shooting over 60% tonight.
I was a wrestler, and I can say first hand that it didn't matter how much better I was than a kid. If I didn't show up to wrestle hard, I could lose, and a couple of times, I did.
These guys are pro athletes. The margin at that level is even slimmer.

The oddsmakers just know there garbage. Its almost unbelievable at times.
Refs make bad calls but they don't affect that 3 pointer someone shoots and somehow makes it for you to not cover.
I'm not sure what you are talking about. The Kings were $12.05 ML odds to win that game. How is that the oddsmakers knowing their garbage?
Going by those odds, the oddsmakers had absolutely no idea the Kings would win, let alone get close. The oddsmakers predicted a blow out to the Warriors, and the Kings win. Oddsmakers were way off, just like everyone else.

I believe that basketball is a hard game, when people believe it's capable of being consistently rigged makes me laugh. Point totals can be rigged. I agree. large spreads can be manipulated, I agree, but either of them woukd be very hard because of variance. you want the Warriors to lose, you're going to have to find a way to stop them from performing at an elite level, and they are an elite team.

Agreed. I don't think anyone denies that it might not be "completely" free of manipulation, but the lines makers are so sharp to begin with, and there are so many sports games, and so much money bet, they don't need to manipulate all that much to make huge profit. Definitely not worth crying over, especially when you claim to be so smart, but yet still bet your money on something that's rigged? Either you're a dumb behind or you don't really believe what you're saying.

Scott has a pretty good point. Except that WWE is dudes acting like they're beating each other up. A lot less grace involved with that than putting an inflated ball through a hoop 50 times a night.

It wasn't an intentional missed layup, if he had no intention of making the shot he would have passed it off or never drove to the net in the first place!
Every single night we get 'fixed' threads started from people who lose money.... It's sports, you win sometimes, lose sometimes, get over it.

So it just makes you laugh that people think it can CONSISTENTLY be rigged.Point totals can be rigged,large spreads can be manipulated,but that's as far as they would go rigging a game,god forbid they would never fix the whole outcome of a game.
You said,you want the warriors to lose,your gonna have to FIND a way to stop them from performing at an elite level.Seems like some officials have FOUND a way to stop elite teams,crappy teams,and all other teams,its called making bad calls against a certain team,if you don't want that team to do well.Everyone seems to forget about that NBA referee that was fixing games,not to far in the distant past.People used to say the same thing about fixing games back then,"It could never happen in todays league,teams just happen to do bad in certain games,crucial foul calls just coincidently ALWAYS get called against the team that is the public favorite.Until the FBI started bugging some criminals phones,and accidently found out about an referee fixing games,the NBA was "supposedly" completely blind about any of it.So don't be to sure it couldn't happen again,or should I say,hasnt been happening ever since.
See I was betting NBA games during that time frame,and sometimes things and calls did seem a little fishy,but I was one of the people,like some of you are now."Sports could never be fixed in this day and age,ya you get a couple bad judges decisions in boxing every now and then,but professional sports could never be fixed.Then BAM it comes out that this referee was throwing games,so don't try and sit here and tell me,it can never happen again.
