Here’s my random thought pls chime in. I think most bettors will look at Nuggets and think man if they would have hit 1 more of those 13 3pters in 4th qtr they could have won that last game in OKC. Also they’ll shoot much better at home or Joker won’t go out like that. But in my strange mind it is a bad look for the League not only if Denver pushes #1 team to a G7 or even win this series but also if Joker shows up MVP SGA. The message would be we have all #1 and #2 teams knocked out of the playoffs so why take the regular season seriously. That’d be a nightmare for the League having all teams coast in reg season and having #2 MVP vote getter take out the #1. We’re really going to have a Final 4 with no 1 or 2 seeds? Cmon.
I don’t think the League can take a chance with this game and send it back to OKC. Anything can happen injuries or upsets. That total diving tells me OKC dominates and Nuggs have trouble scoring. They need to end this one tonight and get the coveted Thunder/Wolves matchup which will be tremendous. I haven’t been right on this series sides since the Clips so hopefully I break the streak and get some mo for manana.

they set the hook for Celtics bettors it’s beautiful. Celtics got to save face at home and make those billion dollar new owners satisfied and at the same time in a 25pt win made ppl question that they are better and can now challenge Knicks at the Garden no less. The League imo does not want a Celtics/Pacers matchup, not without Tatum that’s got no taste. Knicks haven’t won a playoff series at home since 1999 and who did they meet in Conf Finals? Pacers. This is too good to pass up and have at least 2 more games in the Garden. This won’t go back to Boston, too big a risk for an upset or injury. Thanks for the 25pt win Cs to give us this great opportunity.
Knicks -2.5

lakers and golden st wouldnt be on summer vacation. far as books controlling games, they dont need to. On top of that people dont realize how many legal and illegal sportsbooks there are all around the world, all needing different outcomes. So which book would be doing the control. Lastly if books were rigging games, they wouldnt spend massive amounts of money trying to create good lines. They could have the janitor make the lines, since they are controlling the outcomes. Also watch interviews of real pro bettors and how they use info and computers to try and make better lines then the sports books to get an edge. Why would they waste their time and money doing this, if in reality all that work wont matter cause games are predetermined
