Gambling Scandal

[Process]

The NBA investigating and clearing Rozier seems like something that could be, or should be, a major issue.

What is most interesting to me was likely how long did the FBI sit on it before acting?  The feds don't play but they don't rush when it comes to going after the common Man. Celebrities often get a little bit of better treatment to lock up every detail, cross every t and dot every i. 

 

So, has this been going on for over a year? 2 years? How long did the federal gov allow this to occur?

The NBA has been a source of fraud for a long time.

I can't believe that there are people who don't believe things like this aren't happening in the NFL. Refs, Vegas, Owners, who knows. I'm just not going to be surprised that one day someone will follow the money and we'll have some answers to all the questions and doubts we've had about officiating and unexplainable play calling. The doubt and questioning by many already has had and affect on me and how I view the game. 

Yep. If mafia families are in NBA, what makes people think they aren’t in NFL- which is a much bigger payday?

Here's a professional poker player discussing rigged games on a podcast over 2 years ago. I'm actually familiar with Berkey and have played poker with him before. It seems like the rigged poker games with Billups have been going on for a while.

I've always wondered why the NBA allows LeBron to do commercials for DraftKings gambling site.  

At least the NFL wouldn't allow an active player to do gambling ads.

If you look far enough back on this board you will find a thread in which I predicted the next three NBA Champions accurately.  In it, I predicted the Mavericks who were not a high seed, the Celtics, and then a 7 game final between the Celtics and Lakers.  I gave a slight edge to the Lakers in 7 but was adamant it would be Celtics/Lakers and would 100% go 7.  It did and the Lakers won.  I had no insider knowledge but the narrative was extremely obvious.  
 

The NBA has been fixed for a long time.  It’s still fixed.  I haven’t watched for quite a while so I have no feel for the current narrative but it is obviously an orchestrated product.

The Lakers won in 2009 and 2010 the Mavericks won 2011

 

You might be a little confused with the years.. Boston beat the Lakers in 08

These guys have already made tens of millions of dollars, if not hundreds of millions. Did they piss all that away already, or are they just so arrogant that they think they are above consequences? Either way, they have to be complete idiots. They deserve what they get, and I hope it’s a heavy price. I haven’t watched the NBA in more than a decade, and I don’t feel I’ve missed anything. 

 

The NFL is not far behind the NBA in my book.
