I’ve always enjoyed reading your material, win or lose, but it pains me to see when people think the “right side” lost. A loss is a loss, doesn’t matter if it’s right side or not. If you want to say there are external factors that come into play on a cover or not then I’m 100% right there with you. But those factors must be considered when evaluating a play and the NBA is poster child for this in the realm of wagering. These external factors play a part in certain games, not all, ending up on the “right” side or not. You can be looking great on any wager in game but down the stretch when shady things happen you can’t be surprised, just except it as part of the game. Your angle on capping is informative and entertaining but limits eliminating certain plays that are “at risk” for situations like this. Best to you, happy holidays / Merry Christmas and to the rest of the covers community
In general you are right. And we can debate these factors all day. But as soon as I saw that delay, and how it took the air out of the building and the Clipper players (which the cameras showed walking around confused and frustrated) I knew something awful was in store. Now was it coincidence that my fruition came to pass? Was it coincidence that Russ asked the officials to check the rim? Is icing a player or a team before a big play, a free throw, a FG a common strategy in sports? Then why not icing them just before halftime to steal the momentum? You might think it is all just a coincidence, but I don't. That's all I'm saying.
