[GoldenGlove]

You make millions of dollars every year. Why bet?

Bet on yourself Kings

Or something like that

Feels like we aren’t far from a star getting caught up. And as a guy who plays parlays…


I’m looking at you Bam and Jimmy..

 

[MicIsGod]

Rozier now him
Porter Jr bro getting caught and banned from the league

James harden.

What’s wrong with these dudes?! You can’t be making that much more betting on games if you’re already a millionaire. Damn.

its got to be an addiction at this point

gambling is way to accessible

 

[Hawala Man]

If he did it he is a fool....just simply greed.

Pistons were going to offer him a bag next couple days on a contract extension.

They make millions but I think a lot of these tight blockheads see it as a way to enrich friends and family without being out of pocket. The soccer player Lucas Paqueta was caught because of suspicious betting patterns in his hometown.

It's a bunch of players in this, It'll be interesting to see if the ones I suspect are involved.

Time will tell because it's definitely bigger names doing the same shyt

Any day now that an nba ref will be caught, if millionaire players are doing this, why not the refs? I remember some baseball ref was being investigated

One has already been caught Donagy or whatever his name was back in 07.

We have like 3 NBA players in 10 years, thats 3 / 4800 players. If you have the same percentage of refs, it's probably a few decades until you have another Donagy

Smh

They couldn’t have at least waited til dude secured his bag before they went Public with this


Diabolical shyt

That man earned that contract

Fools don't understand how advanced models and algorithms the betting companies have to detect suspicious patterns.

Every time I read about stuff like this it's like some idiot who only placed small bets than all of a sudden he's putting big ass bets on random shyt like over/under on some no-name player.

1. How can you earn a contract when you can't play?

2. If he did indeed break the law, why do you want a criminal to get money other non-criminals can get?

3. It's not a bonus, it's a salary. If he's banned or suspended he doesn't get paid, it's just a headache for the team that it might affect their cap space and that they couldn't find a replacement.

Malik's play during the NY series was suspect as hell, and his unrelenting positivity on social media during the series seemed unaware at worst, and insincere at best. I kept thinking back to that @Absolut post throughout the whole series to be real. Maybe I'm thinking too hard, but Malik was bizarrely ass for sure.
