Yeah, Ellington talked to Parsons about something, and he was also the one who scored the basket that led to a cover. The Lakers are disgraceful

Saw what happened. Figured the spread could be in this range. LOL'ed when I saw 7.5.

That's brutal. I don't think that ever happened to me in the 9 or so years I was betting. That the team could have scored, but pulled back, took the shot clock violation without even putting up a shot, and the opposing team got a mercy basket uncontested.

Dallas had no business covering that game though. Lakers playing some decent ball lately as well. Bunch of retreads and misfits have been keeping it close with a lot of good teams, but they have no closers and always let games slip away.

Lakers were scared to shoot in the 4th quarter. It was 90-84 LAKERS. And before you knew it it was 98-91 DALLAS.... Lakers literally would get down by the rim and passs and pass and pass.  Stop their dribble pass some more and chuck up a hope and dream shot... It was sick to watch If you bet LAL like me.

LAL are a well known rig team. I try to stay away, especially if they are playing at home

Man! Have the mav at 7.5, after they went up 2 under around 2 mins i know they would pull away.
Aminu is stupid, you are playing pro ball so even on the breakaway and over 24s you have to score. Or run the clock and get a decent shot. Shouldn't passed it up for ellis to hold on to the ball when they can't run the clock out. The laker did what they have to do, with 3 sec they have to run down and take a shot. It wasn't a fix, its just aminu is stupid and he screw the cover.
Had the under on celtics game also. The over happened cause of the magic keep turning the ball over everytime they in bound letting the celtics believe they could be around the 5-6 point margin. They ate just a couple of 3s away. Lost of both of these games but overall still up a bit for the day. Oh well! New week Monday.

If he misses the layup, there's no fix... huh

Helluva coincidence that the Mavs held the ball until the shotclock violation.  But the inbound was pretty obvious...he was looking down court.

And once he catches it, and sees Aminu sleeping, he doesn't need to just try a 3.  Watch it again...Chandler Parsons even half-azz runs towards him when he sees the pass is going to him (and not just an inbound, run the clock out).  He just gives up when he thinks Aminu is gonna defend.
Instead, Aminu gets scored on (for no reason), and Chandler comes over to high-5 his guy...and Aminu walks off slamming the ball and ignoring him.   Yeah, it was a huge theatrical performance, err..a fix

really funny to see some guys are saying Lakers are right side. i'm quite sure there must be Fix, i mean all basketball games. referees are main thing always. with 3-5 sec left, Elington's lay up? that is not normal cause Mavs didn't try to score, then Elington booom. 
if you think this game is normal, ordinary, you will get fucked in the long run

My best advice to a lot of you would be to stop gambling.

I know no one on here is going to listen to this, but, I will say it anyway.  Stop gambling.  Everything you guys posted in this thread are all clear signs of a gambling problem.  Whether you all want to accept it or not.....  

Now don't get me wrong, I don't think any of you are seriously addicted to the point you will never stop, but, the chances of you stopping are much lower than the chances of you continuing and here's why...

You're interpretation of a mathematically random event as being as being "fixed".  Perhaps a good portion of you are new, or, haven't seen much.....but there is nothing that happens or has happened in sports betting that a professional sports bettor as myself or anyone alike hasn't seen over and over again for many many years.  Back door covers, last minute shots, frustration fouls that shouldn't happen to blow a cover, cause a cover, blow an under, force an over, etc.  These things are so random when you involve humans and EMOTIONS, ......to even suggest these things get fixed on a regular basis right there suggests that you may have a gambling problem.  

When you can't accept that the sheer odds of the GAMBLING and BETTING is against you in every way....when you start making excuses, and telling yourself "I made the right bet, there was just some forces working against me" instead of just accepting that you don't have the ability to pick consistent winners, or, that the ODDS of gambling is NOT in the favor of an average bettor AT ALL long term, then you have a gambling problem.

Most of you don't want to hear this.  You want everyone else who lost in the same way to agree with you and console your frustrated feeling from the money you lost in such a sh*tty way.  I feel for you....gambling can suck....it's not meant to work out for the majority.....but to make excuses about why your bet lost instead of just accepting you bet on the WRONG side? Is a sign of a GAMBLING problem.

lol...

Very intelligent, competent response.  I see my point being dis proven and debunked in ways I will never be able to refute....

-_-

I and many professional gamblers have been winning consistently for years....YEARS....and not ONE pro complains about fixes the way degenerate gamblers do.  I hear it from degens ALL the time.  Especially when I'm at the local bar, seeing all the young kids slam their beers on the table saying "this sh*t is so scripted", every time a call, or a shot goes against them.......crying over their $100-$500 wager....while pros like myself have $5000+ on the line and not making one sound, comfortably watching the game.

Learn how to properly interpret the odds and math of gambling or STOP GAMBLING.

Don't believe me?  No problem.  I'm not here to prove anything.  Watch my thread where I post my picks for a while and see how many times I blame ANYTHING but just being on the WRONG side whenever I lose.

You are a self proclaimed professional gambler telling others they have a gambling problem and to stop immediately....lol.

I bet props...Im up a documented $2,200.00 in the last 3 weeks...why would I quit?...I treat it like a side job.

However, I too can get frustrated at some of the outcomes...I dont claim fixes, but stupidity plays a large part a lot of the time.

Yes, if someone or a group of someone's show's signs of having a gambling problem, why wouldn't I suggest they stop?

If I started losing all of my money, consistently, chasing losses, and could no longer find a way to win, and started blaming last second losses, or , "mooses" or "back doors" or "fixes" or "traps" or any of that junk degens say, as the reason for my huge string of losses, instead of just accepting I can no longer win and just STOP?  Then I would have a gambling problem.

If you're not claiming fixes or doing anything degenerates do, why would you even respond to that post?  It was geared towards those who I believe maybe degenerates with a gambling problem.

Why?  Because you are on a message board and its not your place to lecture anyone. 

I find it hard to believe that someone who says they are so cool calm and collected when betting, gets so disturbed by a few who are a little frustrated at some outcomes.  Thats not the sign of someone who is calm under pressure...its the sign of someone who tilts very easily.

Get off your high horse.  Alot of times the lecturer is talking to himself.  Maybe its you that should stop?

Are you kidding?  LOL

Who makes the rules of what one should or shouldn't do on a public message board?

And how could you possibly, with any slight level of accuracy, believe that you can interpret my tone or emotional output based on the responses I made to this thread?  Or any other thread? 

There is no way to tell, from ANY text, with any good accuracy, whether someone is mad, sad, angry, happy, hot, cold, etc.  Text is very misleading.  

It is not a waste of time and it is not something that is "not my place" for me to post responses to threads in a way that I choose.  That is the whole point of a free public message board. 

You think I need to console/lecture myself? Boy is your interpretation way off.  Which is normal.  Text is very misleading.  :)

But hey, I'm not here to prove anything.  Like I said above, follow the thread where I post my picks for a bit.  You'll notice no chasing, no bs, and no excuses.  Just wins, consistency, solid money management, and professional reactions to losses.  :)
