We Just Caught the NBA Lying to Everone 

Yeah, I could not care less if they lost a shit ton of money during this process, they are a cancer to the competition of sports. “oh no, we can’t upset the degenerate gamblers!“

It won't be any of the sports organizations humbling sports betting. It would have to come from the federal government. We need more regulation on that shit.

@@cm9241Yet it was ok for MLB to keep Rose out of the Hall of Fame for betting on his team, but we allow Scott Walker to keep his job when his partner Tim Donaghy bet on games. Get gambling out of sports period. Especially if you are a participant in the world of sports including the media of TV or Radio, not just coaches and players and refs. Get politics out of sports also. If players don’t want to wear woke uniforms or participate in team gay night, that is their right. Politics and businesses don’t mix period. Besides, sports needs to be boycotted. 500 million for Ohtani and 300 million for Brown of the Celtics is moronic. Have we gone insane? Having gambling online for sports betting is moronic as the having the G league around.

To hell with gambling

@@cm9241how do you regulate sports betting? You want the governments hand in that pie?

Yep i also notice fans being way more happy winning 103-100 than winning 145-143 fans want defense and competitive basketball at both sides of the ball Defense and Offense.

So how about if low scoring games become the norm?

@@masp809then that would mean that the high scoring games would become interesting, as it wouldn’t be the lack of defense being played, but the skilled offense being played

@masp809 - it’s not the scoring that’s the issue, it’s the lack of defense and all the touch fouls which often seem to be called one way They can still score a lot, as long as there is some semblance of defense

Same. I think of this change sticks, it will finally let players show how good they are on the defensive end

Facts

Funny isnt it? They try to desperately imitate the scores in the 90s now. :D

I mean... At least we finally get defense were games won't go over freaking 140 points...

90s minus Bulls. Ghost fouls on mike, like Chuck said

2000's had better defense and less scoring

@@Iyoska_Edgerunner25 you can play perfect defense and someone like curry can still score 140 points (only 2 three throws) though just by hitting contested 3s. thats how good these modern guys are compared to older generations.

Which is crazy because they have that 10 second rule for free throws but don’t enforce it.

@@user-nn6ow3xt5o Most players take there free throws inside 10 seconds tho only guys like Giannis violate it.

@@user-nn6ow3xt5o Unless it's Giannis lol

LoL

Free throws are boring as shit to watch regardless of whether or not they follow the 10 second rule. You really want me to watch 400 seconds or 6 minutes worth of free throws every game? Not to mention the setup time and the fact that the clock isn't moving either.

Nah they are just more skilled right? It doesn’t have anything to do with officiating right….?

@@user-nn6ow3xt5o The players absolutely are more skilled than before. Todays games arent high scoring because of FTA being higher, the 2020s has the lowest free throws per game out of every decade. Todays inflated scoring has everything to do with spacing, 3pt shooting and pace, not inflated free throw numbers. This just doesnt fit your narrative at all.

This is more proof that the NBA and refs are fixing games.

@@user-nn6ow3xt5oliterally the eye test can tell you this 😂 stop watching hoops bum

@@Mmmm-lx9vbagree with everything you said but I think pace is the biggest thing that dictates scoring. Yes the league is more skilled now but even in the 80s in a supposed defense era has some crazy scoring games and on average the league scored more per game then they do today. NBA players are nba players for a reason defense can only go so far. When pace goes down as it did in the 90s and 2000s

well thats where the money comes from

A.M.Hoops is concerned, they are his main sponsors.

they be more like - we don't give a fuck about fans or the integrity of the game, so what, if the Luka scores 200? it's nice to make money from gambling without the interruption of an actual competitive game

Refs were suss well before sports betting was legal

that's actually crazy😂

The Warriors weren't getting calls pre this memo.

Don't count on the whistle don't even wait for it

Its a skill, just the worst one

@@emmanuelmondesir8677 yeah, it became a skill because of how they officiate now. Like flopping, players only used to take charge when a player was driving hard for a layup or dunk. Now, they are calling it even on small bumps during dribble or positioning.

who tf plays 2k.. Stop giving them money

@@LivinProoof dont worry, that was before. 2k14 was the 1st and last 2k i owned.

That would make teams score more 3s lol and make the game even faster paced because players would just find the wide open 3 take find the wide open 3 take it. And so on. Also the Defensive 3 second Violation has been implemented since 2002 and it let to no rise in Scoring back then.

@@emilfrederiksen.1622 That is a risk indeed, but I think is worth to see what happens, it's an obsolete rule in todays NBA. If the threes go up, I would personally eliminate the corner 3, a glorified long 2.

Thats because the nba wants the lakers in the playoffs

Wasn't THAT huge. The point remains.

Lol he made many mistakes in this video and others.. he just spews bullshit

LA 43 ft's

Lebron, Davis and Reeves drive hard. Warriors are jump shooters so it makes sense

Nah man, theres so many break downs of the disparity. They baby Bron and LA.

​@@oliverhutchinson5039Yeah ok, you got a point. It may be a combination of aggressive driving and bullshit calls for the Lebron and the Lakers

A quick search will let you know what team shoots the most free throws per game. Spoiler, it’s not the lakers.

​@@WJGSixIt's not always about how many foul calls; sometimes, it's about the lack thereof for the other team or when said calls are made.

@@MrSweatLeisure Then it’s subjective. Every team has fans who think their teams get screwed. You can literally see it after each game with RU-vid channels having podcasts right after each game and the comment section riddled with “those refs were bought”, “ who let that one person ref an nba game”, “the nba is so scripted”. The only thing we have to prove that wrong is stats, and based on the OP’s posts the stats don’t back his statement up.

@@WJGSix Good point made.

​@@WJGSixits the free throw differential that counts. Lakers have shot 350+ MORE free throws than their opponents. Its fukking ridiculous

money laundering ?

Every game there is some suspect crap going on but nah

Someone is running the NBA like an international bank... wonder who and why 😃

does it ? It's not like he gets paid by the league or something, they're not gonna burn his house down like the mafia you know

Appreciate it!

@@mekacrabno, but they have tons of influence

NBA is making way more money of Tv deals than Sports betting so they will likely do a lot more to appease them than the sports bookies who will eventually figure out the decrease in scoring and adjust there odds.

@@emilfrederiksen.1622 I’m well aware that tv deals are more lucrative. However, you wouldn’t know with all the gambling ads we’re constantly showered with.

Reality is that a lot of people only watch the nba because they could increase the size of their wallet through betting on the games. Without gambling the amount of viewers would decline immensely.

Lmao this country is just a business you think your feelings over rule gambling is delusional buddy

​@@user-lg9rf9df7wexactly that is the only ones who watch are gamblers True fans see this game is rigged, not about winning just profit $$$

Thank you!

​@@AMHoops I was wondering, can you pull similar graphs reflecting the number of blocks and steals from the beginning of the NBA? It would be interesting to see how these two stats have been affected over the past couple of decades. I was thinking it would give an interesting perspective to the defensive nature of the game. 😜😅

I edit his videos. He doesn't pay me though 💔

I doubt the NBA will ever get as physical as that again especially as physical as the bad boy pistons were but its still a good change.

classic GSW fan excuses

Theybget away with moving screens all the time shut up

​@@RealShaquilleOnealeveryone does illegal screens. Not everyone gets 30 free throws a game like Lakers

​@@RealShaquilleOnealeveryone does illegal screens. Not everyone gets 30 free throws a game like Lakers

@@vulcanraven9701 embiid gets almost 20💀

😂😂😂😂

Thanks!
