Are there really people delusional out there enough to believe that sports are rigged to this point, where clearly all or most NBA personnel would need to be involved to make it work?

You guys have heard athletes talk right, especially disgruntled ones, but they all just keep quiet when they’re fading into obscurity because….. now, I’m sure there’s the occasional fixing with a ref, telling them to push calls a certain way etc, but Suns just got bodied tonight, end of story.


Wilt Chamberlain used to shave points so is it really that farfetched? Proof that he did it to gamble on/against himself

If you can comprehend the vast differences of today’s world/NBA and when Wilt played, then yes, it’s pretty far fetched.

Again, there are absolutely incidents, would be foolish to believe there’s not at least some meddling, but it’s not some mass conspiracy where Vegas is controlling the outcome of every game to ensure they turn a profit. Sometimes team A has an off night, and team B excels, and there’s nothing more to it.

You all are welcome to keep those tinfoil hats on, I’ll just remind myself that people will believe whatever they want.

In today's world/NBA they don't even show the lottery balls being picked, they just report which picks are what and we are supposed to blindly believe that they did it in good faith. Just one example of a blatant situation that could easily have unfettered corruption.

There's also certain teams with certain officials that have a long history of winning/losing. Phoenix has a long outlier of losing in Scott Foster officiated games

It would take literally everyones cooperation and sworn silence, from the players, coaches, refs, to the gm and assistants that get fired every year and some never return.. They all take this to their graves even. Y’all silly if you think these elite competitors would silently let this happen while they get washed out of the league, be smarter please.

Nah these refs has their bias even if they dont know it.

Like when jlin was not getting any fts for hard fouls. And with stats and video to back it up these refs are bias.
