How the NBA Got Away With Cheating for YEARS 

So so true.

I think wembanyama will do at some point

In the finals no less

So true

If he wasn’t so humble he 100% would

Everybody gotta hit those lays

No, just corruption did it

How?

@@mcmerry2846 The corruption is made possible by the legalization of sport betting tho

@@billcook4768 Look up the issue with Jontay Porter. Who knows how much more could be going on especially with the refs. Tim Donaghy did make a suspicious amount of calls to Scott Foster during his time.

All those freethrows for Lebum and Lakers

@@junson3209 lakers arent even top 5 in free throws but keep whining

@@junson3209yeah but the league also rigged it for Kobe and shaq but no one Evers says that

@@crystalizedExposed they have the greatest disparity against their opposition tho so that’s interesting isn’t it? No matter what they always get more whistles than whoever they’re playing pushing +400 against their opponents. But sure nothing to see here.

@@NateO123 they have bron and ad, two of the most prolific drivers and paint scorers of all time. + ad is a veteran defender, he just doesn't foul a lot. orrr its a scheme by the league to get the lakers to the... 9th seed.

statistician corruption ye

I know it feel like that haha, but when a team is down they usually get more FTS not because of refs but because when you are down you tend to drive more and take higher % shots and the team that's up tends to settle for jumpers. It's really just that, It would be so hard for them to fix shit lmao

​@@buttnuts2599just cause you drive more doesn't mean more FT automatically, you still need to win fouls, Embiid drive in more but half those calls are BS, we all know that

@@benishben4364 yes let's talk about Embiid that's genetically and statistically an outlier... C'mon buddy do better.

​@@buttnuts2599 27 free throws in the 4th quarter to help kobe and shaq beat the kings in 2002 was not them driving more it was clearly rigged. If you think thats the onky time the nba has been rigged with fouls you're smokimg rocks.

@@danielkarcis1174 I think superstars get more calls than non stars. And the king's stars have always been disrespected by fans, media, and refs for all of eternity. You are lacking critical thinking skills if you think they rig games.

They're controlling results to give the illusion that the salary caps are working? Why?

That's such a stupid mindset. And to say Jokic gets this benefit when he averages 5 ft a game is crazy.

To much money on the line to fake stats

I noticed he used a different sponsor than usual too lol, kinda spineless tbh. He needs to talk about how bad the current situation is too.

that would mean he'd have to agree he's part of the problem. Just like every youtuber with a gambling sponsor. They talk about all the winnings but never mention they're playing with house funds as part of the sponsorship contract.

There hasn't been a season without a game 7 since 1999. Every decade prior has multiple seasons per decade without a game 7. The frequency of game 7s have almost tripled in the last 12 years as well. Something isn't right.

Its less than last year and no one claimed it then. Its also less than the 2018 Hornets had that year. Does this mean the NBA was rigging it to try and prop up MJ?

@@jake8748 well they lead the league in free throws against their opposition so if it’s less that means they had it last year too. Sure looks like the league wants Lebron in the playoffs to me js lol, plus individuals trying to pad stats for stars is hardly the same as the league clearly trying to keep one player relevant with absurdly biased officiating 😂

​@@NateO123biased officiating?? You got joel, giannis, luka, Sga 😂😂😂 but sure Lakers only had favorable calls 😂😂😂

@NateO123 yes they lead the league in FT differential this season. They led last season in FTD by a larger margin than this season. Also the 2018 Hornets led that year in FTD by a larger margin than what the Lakers lead this year. You think the 2018 Hornets were being favoured for their superstars and to create a narrative in that season? Or, if you understand how bad the lakers are on defence and at shooting you'll realise opposing teams often get easier shots off except if they end up with AD in the middle, and also the lakers have little good offensive strategy but to throw it inside and iso/post up etc in the paint which leads to alot of FTA. AD and Lebron have never fouled much in their careers.

@@No_Iceee Actually not only the Lakers got SO VISIBLE help.

Logical. Cap. He’s propaganda. It still happens, nothing was debunked it’s just the narrative overconfident assholes want to parrot. This era isn’t better, you’re just bias and a hypocrite.

his longevity is wild, missed like 40 games in 20 years

Stockton had fake assists look it up they counted Karl Malone posts ups

​@@MrDiMES123 Dude it was in the video. Nobody is saying all of his assists are fake, that's absurd. The point is even if you removed a large percentage of them, he'd still be the leader even though you'll find players lower on the list that surely have some padding as well.

💯. Which is why I can never root for or be a fan of any team with the same passion I once did as a youngster. I still enjoy some of it though.

@TheGoldeagle99 I see other grown-ups who still passionately root & care and I envy their delusional mindset, but am glad I don't have it.

@@3tp 🤣🤣. Just remember what Morpheus told Neo. Some people don't want to be unplugged from the system. Many will even fight to protect it.

Glad you enjoyed it

Anyone else here go screwed over by a Jimmy Butler bet a couple weeks ago where they awarded him an assist in real time but after the game was done, they took the assist away?

He yoinked this from Pablo Torre Finds Out.

Exactly zaddy I don’t know why people say that

It's almost like there are 1230 NBA matches a year, so many many random outcomes can happen.

It’s definitely as rigged as wwe

NBA = WWE

@@bigbangbasketballnope

What game please! We have to know!...

The NBA needs webby to be great.

It happened but they did actually basically engineered it to aswell. It wasn't naturally scored. The entire team kept giving it up to him. Its like Kobes last game, it was clear that wasn't just him.

Scoring points is more objective than whether who should get credit for tips for rebounds or time to count assists.

I actually don't think its rigged, the sport wasn't even popular thats why theres no recording or anything. They assumed no one would really care

There's video on youtube that shows every point he scored in that game-allegedly.

​@@jake8748you think so?

POV 2K LUKA DONCIC

It still shocks me to know that there are people who believe that the NBA and NFL are no different from the WWE.

Ok buddy 😂

draymond maybe but i think you’re stretching it

He’s their favorite ref. The nba controls him

Agree fully. To my surprise(!?!), Casey has become my favorite NBA blogger, and I watch a lot of NBA bloggers.

I heard that trend for like 2 days ago, what's with it btw

@@adriancomia6618Basically a bunch of young idiots hating on the 90s to retaliate against the old idiots who hate the modern gen Id stay outta it since it is filled with a bunch of dummies

the trend is legit, I grew up watching the entire 90s era. nostalgia plays a part, if anybody has the nba league pass please watch those games. The level of skill is massive aside from the generational talents from those era. you will never find a guy like steph curry moving off the ball most guys were standing around off the ball slightly shifting or clogging the paint.

​@@avengerkill809 lol Curry wouldn't be able to move as freely with hand checking not to mention shooting 3s at a high clip was frowned upon so Curry wouldn't play like he does now. 🗑 take

@@tdup191 if guys like John Stanton with no left hands can play during that era then Steph curry would destroyed defense with his off the ba movement and coming off screens. Reggie Miller took MJ and bulls to 7 games, Steph curry would've been a nightmare for defense. Shooting 3s was not frowned upon mf just couldn't make it. Reggie was taking almost 5 shots from 3 per game and he's nowhere near as efficient as a shooter as curry. You sound like you don't know basketball.

Sounds about made up

Trollll

Tell me more....what youtuber and what year?

The guy is still hustling and lying to ....yup sell something

So the goat is Stephen curry

@@edwartoelrico333 sorry but thanasis is here

It's called consistency 😂. Avg 2000 a season won't win you scoring title but it gets you to 40,000 points in a career.

​@@ayoa1173expecting oldheads to do math when their favorite mj can go above the rim???? It's eye test only for them

Old man yells at the clouds

Scoring is hard to fake. Rebounds assist is easy to Block but you can't fake Point.

@@emilfrederiksen.1622so true . Scoring would be hard to do

thats kinda how assisting works its not just the nba if your new to this game

@@Kamylamy nope. like I said, traditionally, if a scoring player does extra movements like iso dribbles, a bunch of steps right after the pass, it does not count as an assist unlike today. you only need to see Tyrese Haliburton's record-breaking 32 assist game for that. and to help you understand that, here's the actual link - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MR-abuQovp8.html , then at the 25-second mark, when Tyrese passed to Turner, that play wouldn't have counted as an assist in the 90's and early 2000's because Turner right after getting the pass behind the 3-point line, instead of shooting the ball, took a pump fake, then a couple of dribbles and a few more steps for the layup. if you watched basketball during those era's and compared it from today, you would know the difference....

​@@PapaMatt107You clearly have no idea what youre talking about. That assist at 25 seconds is dubious for sure, but you can't say that about a single one of the other assists in the video, which you obviously didn't watch. There weren't 32 assists in a game, it was over the course of two games as you can clearly see by the bright red court at just over the minute and a half mark lol. Why would you cite a video you didn't even watch as evidence for your argument? Shit doesn't make sense. And calling it a "record-breaking 32 assist game" shows you didn't watch much of the video you're commenting on because it mentioned the actual record holding 30 assist game (from the 90s) and how it's likely fraudulent. In fact, this whole video is about how stats such as assists were routinely manipulated during the 90s, 2000s, and before (Nick van Exel, John Stockton), and how this wasn't combated until 2010. So did you even watch the video you're commenting on at all? lmao

@@user-bw9qy7yl4s clearly your reading comprehension was off. I did watched the whole video clip and I know it was in a span of two games, which was in fact still a record for a two-game stretch of most assist without a turnover, so I just stated you facts. and I never said all or most of those assists were dubious that's why I only stated one as an example. If you haven't actually watched the games during the 80's, 90's, early 2000's like most of us old folks did, you won't have perspective to compare with how it was today. so it was you who had no clue what you're saying that's why you can't see my point. which is, like you said, today's stats are manipulated to an extent that it became the norm unlike before when it was only done to a handful of stars and players. if you still don't get what I'm saying, Josh Hart just had a triple-double at home against the Sixers. still don't get my point? today.... everybody can get a triple-double because that's how manipulated stat keeping is unlike before when it was just reserved for the true stars of the game.

​@@PapaMatt107You can just admit you were wrong dude lmao. You called it a game, singular, and clearly meant it that way. You said "that play wouldn't have counted as an assist in the 90's and early 2000's" when there's an even more egregious example of an inflated assist in this video for Nick van Exel in the 90s. Now you're saying it did happen, but just for some people which would be good goalpost moving if you were having this conversation verbally and not over text where I can see exactly what you previously argued. "so it was you who had no clue what you're saying that's why you can't see my point" is a pretty silly thing to say while you change your arguments lol. It's possible you meant the things you're saying, but you certainly didn't say them or provide any reason for someone to think otherwise. For the record I've watched plenty of regular season games from those decades and full playoff series as well. I have a better idea than most how those games went. "today's stats are manipulated to an extent that it became the norm unlike before when it was only done to a handful of stars and players" This video actually shows the average assist totals for away vs home teams, and the first time in league history it was an even ratio was after the 2010 rule implementation. This shows less bias in today's calls, not more, and to directly address your point this data indicates that entire teams (not a few individual players) directly benefited from phantom assists. Josh Hart getting a triple double is the result of being a good basketball player and being on the floor for a long time, not conspiratorial stat padding. You're talking about a guy that has 65 career double doubles while only being a starter in 195 of his career games. A person who gets double doubles in 15% of his total games that has averaged more than 4 assists per game in multiple years is liable to get a triple double when you hand them 39 minutes in a 48 minute game. In fact, he's had two other triple doubles and his minutes for all three averages to 41.5. Just to remind you, "triple-doubles have somewhat became the norm for superstars" was your original argument. You followed that up with "almost every week you see at least one player have one." There are 52 games this week alone, so just one player doing that doesn't really sound like some horrible epidemic in context. Triple doubles are only "somewhat" the norm for a handful of players now, like you said before, but now you're saying "everybody can get a triple-double" which is a massive leap in argument from really anything in your other comments. Oscar Robertson and Magic are 2nd and 3rd in triple double totals over their careers. Jason Kidd, Wilt, and Bird are also top 10 for that stat. There have always been elite heliocentric players in the NBA that routinely scored triple doubles. There are certainly more of these types of players in today's game, and the statline is absolutely more common, but that's a testament to the overall skill of the league's players dramatically increasing over the years. It's immensely more difficult to make it to the NBA in 2024 than it was in the 90s. The level and quality of training has gone way up, the sport has become more accessible internationally, and kids are taking it up as their primary sport earlier and earlier. The style of coaching has changed a lot since the 2000s, which was different from the 90s, and the 80s, and so on. The rules have changed to allow players more opportunities on offense. In 2024 we're talking about a league where the 7th option on a team might be a 40% 3 point shooter, and where 7 footers who can't shoot have been almost entirely phased out. Furthermore, if you actually look at the numbers you would see that the team with the most assists per game in 2004 was the Sacramento Kings at 25.8 a game. Last year it was the Warriors at 29.6. Not even a four assist difference per game in almost two decades. As a matter of fact, teams averaged about the same amount of assists per game from at least 2004 until 2017. After this, teams increasingly committed to modeling their offense after the Warriors' system and the assist averages are up because of it. Again, you do not know what you're talking about.

Who? Post it please

Sydney moncreif n Alvin Robertson if I'm correct...

Sidney Moncrief,i belive he won in 1984.and 1985.but i am not sure. Also M.Cooper won the award as a sf.

@@capricehollis1372 yeah,Alvin Robinson is so underreated and underapreciated. AM hoops should probably do video on him.

Moncrief, thank you. All I could remember was Sydney without looking 😆

@@slobodanjamedzija7545 forgot about Coop winning, another non big man

What website do you use for that?

@mysportisyourpunishment73188 basketball reference and stat muse to double check (player game stat tracker). You can side by side the stats and see the fluctuations between the two. I'm not a die hard Kings fan so I can't speak to how they decide to run their offense night in and out- but I saw a thread on this on reddit and it peaked my curiosity and held weight after digging.

Everyone all your fav basketball RU-vidr

That’s not proof that refs are manipulating games because of betting, buddy.
