Goddamn I think I finally give up

This has been the most frustrating NBA season.  NBA is nothing like it's ever been before.  Maybe I just have atrocious luck but when unders are on track I get OT.  Teams play at a slow in pace for 40 minutes but then score 30 pts between them in 3 minutes and the under is fucked. I take the over and then a team goes completely scoreless for 6 minutes.

The style of play is so conducive to casinos/sports books and is no longer a true competitor sport.  Just feels like I'm taking a pull on a slot machine these days and not anything resembling a sport I once loved.

Anyone else feel like sports outcomes have become wildly erratic?  Is it just me?  Is this all normal?  Either way I can't imagine placing another nba bet until the playoffs.

When ever I bet late games out of the one I pick all other hit the bet and my bet doesnt I pick Over, all others go over and mine under or vice versa. I take the points my team doesnt cover and all other underdogs do... its just bullshit

 It's really never been so extreme before.  The frequency of extreme outcomes is disgusting.  If this was a competitive sports with the ultimate goal being to win, teams wouldn't shoot the ball up 10 with 3 minutes left in the game and 5 seconds into the shot clock, they'd slow the pace down and eliminate possessions.  These days, your team can be up 15 with 6 minutes to go and by the 2 minute mark it can be a tie game bc of some dumbfuckery.  I just don't get it.

Everyone is trying to take your money. They have the advantage now more than ever. Noone can win, no one. Play for fun or run.

Sports betting companies have their logos on team jerseys especially in soccer.Heck quite recently a player in the Premier league making millions of pounds ..Tonali was banned for sports betting activity.Another in Italy Juventus confessed that he owes lots of money to the mafia.Or that Brentford striker or Evander Kane from the NHL

I once thought that pfff these athletes make millions why would they bet?Yet the addiction is there whether you make minimum wage or millions

Nevermind the referees controlling some of these outcomes I truly believe this sports betting business is compromised with the mafia

It would be naive 

@Justasquirrel

 I totally agree with your assessment.  When your team is up 15+, don’t feel happy at all.  Look at the rockets and lakers game today.  rockets was up big at the beginning only for me to sweat my rockets +5.5 all the way until the end.  Luckily Lebron scored 1 ft for the game not to go OT. The day before I got screwed on Warriors +2.5 when the game went into over time with OKC. 

Over/unders can be brutal! Take care
