    I'm with Shannon on this if the casinos had won the bets they would have never said anything about this. They would have just thought oh we just made a bunch of money off some idiots who bet all this money on a 2 way player. but since they lost they're over here crying about it making a gigantic scene because they lost money, so pathetic.

    • @artvanderlay6974
      @artvanderlay6974 2 месяца назад +3

      He stated the obvious. Why would a casino complain about making too much money off a particular prop bet? They are only concerned about bets or transactions that are consistently winning because the system isn't designed for that. The system is rigged for the bettor to lose so what would there be to report when the system is working?

    This is typical “fall guy” BS. It’s a certifiable guarantee that this is going on all over the league from small players to starters and the NBA needs to pin it on someone to look proactive.
    This was all foreseeable and that makes it 10x worse. I’m pretty sure betting is either gonna have to be taken away or else the feds will inevitably intervene once it becomes too obvious.

    Im more worried when NBA employes like Donaghy change the results. Or when an Eric Lewis "retires". Those guys control the results of a game. A two way guy wont.

    I wish I knew the other players that were doing this, also the refs, coaches and owners of teams. I think the Orlando Magic does the same thing bc the way they do their subs in weird.

    What’s scary is that soon enough you will be able to make prop bets right on league pass.

    Could it be that he's going through injuries or personal issues and someone around him found out about it and when he wasn't gonna play the whole game?
