    Gambling is out of control and almost every outlet talking about sports, including this channel is benefiting from it. It's bad for sports and bad for society.

    Calling Ohtani the "Wembanyama of baseball" is a huge insult to Ohtani. Wemby is physically amazing and has excellent potential to be the face of the league in the near future, but Ohtani is coming off three all time special seasons and is a multiple time unanimous MVP. He is far more accomplished than Wemby at this point.

At a minimum, prop betting needs to be banned. It’s much more difficult to corrupt the outcome of an entire game. One reason Boxing lost its status as a sport was obvious and blatant corruption because the sport catered to gamblers and not actual boxing fans.

Your logic is pretty flawed, that's like telling an opiate addict that moving to a secluded cabin with no dealers around won't help them, they just need to "cultivate discipline".

    Excellent video as always! I'm less concerned with fringe players fixing games, than referees fixing games, because they will never make what players make, and can affect the pace and the outcome of the game in subtle ways throughout the course of the game. The danger of fixing elements of the game is amplified by the fact that you can bet on almost anything throughout the game, so individual things like the over/under for a quarter, or a player prop for a half could be manipulated without really standing out.
    The NBA already gives mandates on what it wants officials to call/not call, but in the last month we've seen games where the totals ranged from 152 (Sixers 79, Knicks 73) to 295 (Lakers 150, Pacers 145 (no OT)), that seems like an extremely wide range, and can't be solely due to the energy levels of the respective teams.
    The fact is that NBA games (and other sports as well) have gotten significantly weirder since gambling was legalized and became more prevalent. The microscope on referees has intensified, the injury reports started resembling those of the NFL and the players have started taking days off for load management to the point where the NBA had to put into effect rules to keep them from sitting out too many. We've seen unexpected late scratches of players, and games where half the team is listed as DTD so you have no idea how many key players will be out.
    You don't have to rig every play to rig a game against too evenly matched teams. Just a couple of little calls here and there can make the difference, and swing the odds and momentum in the favor of one over another,

    I think the NBA will probably throw Jontay out permanently if the allegations are true to show themselves as being a league of integrity. Future stars in such a situation would probably see their scandals swept under the rug like Michael Jordan's were in the 90s.

      I remember Dejounte Murray had a discount on his points on Prizepicks on St patty’s day. He went over and I won but how he hit the over on his points prop was just so suspicious. Literally the hawks were up and they took all the starters out besides Murray and he hit his point prop in garbage time with two free throws then he got a personal foul and finally got subbed out right after hitting those free throws. Earlier in the day they released a Jokic and Rozier discount. Jokic was one of the three that didn’t hit their over on those discounts, and to me my lil theory is if murray didn’t hit his over, a lot of people would delete that app so they def made a call before or during the game to make sure he went over and they also like that viewership money so they had him hit in the last quarter with very little time left in the game. I have many instances where I placed a bet and it hit and it didn’t feel “real”. One of those instances was a jahmir Gibbs TD during the nfc championship game with the lions vs 49ers. Somehow I just knew deep down he would score a TD and the 49ers just let him walk right in and I was like ok Buddy that sureeee seemed real. Remember I won these bets and something just seemed so off about those wins.
      After Murray hit that discount I just knew I was done spending my own money on these gambling sites and it’s not even worth it anymore. Idk about y’all but some stuff that happens in sports don’t even seem real to me anymore.
      Anyways just want to wish y’all a great day and stay blessed!

The company is simply saying "Hey i lost money, therefore this player must be rigged" to issue an investigation to ruin a player's life. Imagine this happening in the finals and this could very likely affect the final result.
    As for Porter, nba analysts aren't stupid. Gambling legalized or not, they can at least know he is hurting the team instead of helping the team. He ain't getting contracts and this is the ultimate punishment.

The then head of World Vision Australia, Reverend Tim Costello, spoke out against it claiming that it will ruin peoples lives (gambling addictions leading to broken marriages, increase in domestic violence, increase in crime, increase in permanent self harm). He was laughed at and ridiculed, written off as a religious do gooder. 10 to 20 years later, he was proven right.

    With the AI that betting companies now have, and even with their previous statistical models, you just can’t win outside of the standard deviations and not get caught.
    A player might underperform in half of their stats over a whole season, or bowl a no-ball in cricket on the 4th ball of an over, miss the cut in 3 consecutive golf tournaments or make two rebounds in a game twice in a row when you usually get 8+ , but the odds of that happening at the same time that someone is laying huge bets on it are basically zero, and the computer will flag you every time.
