Steve Kerr lied about his lineup last night

[Consumed]

Don't remember Mark getting criticized for it, but I do know fantasy basketball writers criticize coaches for lying about their lineups pre tip all of the time. Rotoworld hated Thibs this year

What did Thibs do with his lineups?

The "unwritten rule" term in sports is strictly a CAC thing.

Cant recall every hearing a black athlete speaking on it or even caring about an unwritten rule

No, "unwritten rule" means Las Vegas doesn't like that shyt.

What did Thibs do with his lineups?

Misled reporters about who was and wasn't playing. Which is a good strategy but makes it hard for fantasy reporters to do their job

Line up? Does it even matter? Teams are always changing their line up when they let subs in.

Any links to all of this outrage when Mark did it?

And did Mark just lie to the media or lie to the scorer's table?

Did Mark lie to the scorer's table or just to the media?

You can't lie to the table. Changing starters would probably result in a technical foul. It does in NCAA and HS.

As some who bets a lot I can tell you its a very big deal what Steve Kerr did..


People use that knowledge like this to make betting decisions. Its the same reason why you can't fake injury reports in the NFL

I wouldn't be surprised if he gets fined for this

Yeah, the NBA has the same rule. You have to report 10 minutes prior to the start of the game.

Kerr lied to the media.

The only "backlash" I remember Jackson facing was George Karl mentioning it months later in an interview when he was accusing Iggy of being a mole.

I'm guessing for Vegas odds

now me personally I don't care. But remember mark Jackson doing the same thing last year and everyone saying how bush league it was and it wasn't nba ball and its an unwritten rule



Now it was a great move and may have won the series

Mark Jackson was on the Kay Show saying he wouldn't have done what Kerr did.
