 In a world where tons of money can influence government, the sale of nuclear arms and assasinations. Yet it couldn't influence the outcome of a fucking sporting event. If it is fixed what are you going to do write your congressman.
 
 In these desperate times who's going to feel sorry for someone who decided to lose his house for betting on NBA games. You are a moron if you let it get that bad anyway and definitly suck at it. I bet these games knowing shady shit happens. Just try to hit the spot when it does. Short lines on teams that have no business being favored and ridiculous totals. Like tonight on Suns GS total. I took over 244.5. I think it's ridiculous for a reason. Small play. They don't hit all the time but more times than not.
 
I rest my case with this. Line of course was Portland -7 or 7.5.
 
 
  100-104 Brandon Roy makes free throw 1 of 2
  100-105 Brandon Roy makes free throw 2 of 2
New Jersey 20 Sec. timeout
Keyon Dooling misses three point jumper 100-105  
  100-105 Travis Outlaw defensive rebound
Bobby Simmons flagrant foul type 1 (Steve Blake draws the foul) 100-105  
  100-106 Steve Blake makes flagrant free throw 2 of 2
  100-107 Steve Blake makes free throw
Brook Lopez personal foul (Brandon Roy draws the foul) 100-107  
Trenton Hassell enters the game for Brook Lopez 100-107  
  100-108 Brandon Roy makes free throw 1 of 2
  100-109 Brandon Roy makes free throw 2 of 2
End of the 4th Quarter
End Game

It just doesn't matter if games are being fixed or not .
 
Say for argument sake there is no fixing of games period. You still will have majority of gamblers losing and only a small minority winning thruout their entire gambling careers.

And so like I said at the top it just doesn't matter if games are being fixed or not. So why bother always bringing it up? You know if the majority of gamblers were winners and just a small minority were losers than eventually gambling with the establishments would cease to exist because they would go bankrupt!

Here we go again. As I stated earlier in my post. I took the over 244.5 because of the ridiculous total. 84% on the under and total moved higher. Still 3 more quarters to go but like my chances with 78 first quarter points

Turc you are hitting like over 80 % on totals you are making money bro. Especially on totals thats tough. You hit another today with Orlando Utah Under.  Great Job. I'm just saying with this shady shit  going on there's lots of good spots to make money like this one. I like my chances of hitting this over 244.5 with 146 at the half. We'll see what happens 2nd half.

i wasn't really arguing whether games are rigged or not, i have no idea whether they are or not. personally, i am mentally blocking out the possibility of cheating just so i can have more fun while gambling. 

best of luck with your wager

Once again a totally fucking absurd line hits. Congrats GS and Suns over 244.5 backers.

The end of that Portland/NJ friday was sick but if you think NBA games are rigged(I dont think they are) why still bet them?? Its hard enough picking winners and if games are being fixxed it makes it harder to pick winners.Just my 2 cents.BOL to you in the future

I accepted f i x -ing in NBA from day ONE.

 

The most notable fix for the day

was in thelast minute of the MAV$-LAKESHOW game, where the OVER backers were left .

Had the refs and players wanted the OVER,

 there would've been  at least 6 free throws.

Worked out for me, as I had +8.5

----- but know that with FT attempts, The Lakers should've covered.

I lost both of my Wiz and over bets so I say the NBA is rigged, at least for today when you see how either it was dog or under.  And no I wouldn't consider myself a square bettor either.  Off all the games today, I only expect one fav and over and thought for sure it was gonna be with the Sac/Was game.
