There's no coming back from this for the league. They're so in cahoots with sports gambling that there's absolutely no way they could break away clean. Not to mention they'd be losing a ton of revenue.

That's that epic new money that Silver promised....

That's why he is so dead-set on Euro-NBA league. Needs to get that ArabOilMoney. #HumanRights #ShutUpAndDribble

Heard a rumor that one of the games in question is game 7 of the ECF in 2018.

Either way this guy is done.

Rozier making $25M a year....I just cannot fathom being this reckless (if guilty).

You'd have to threaten my life to even get me to buy a lottery ticket if I was banking that much legitimately :nonono:

It's Silver who should be gone, given entire nba games are investigated for being fixed.
All that after Silver got caught lying about not knowing what's Aspiration. Like 20 days ago.

You literally now have to look at every game he played and every game Billups coached. Ridiculous

Degneracy doesn't care what its salary is.

The lion does not concern himself with protecting a $25M/year salary 8-)

I wrote it on other thread, nba already has history of game rigging via tanking. Basically, every tanking team is already fixing games after all star break by giving shady "injury "reports and resting best players for sake of boosting tank & securing good draft position.

This is how game rigging looks like, even without official gambling involved. This is end of Pelicans season. Should anybody actually believe that every single starter and important role player of same team was hurt at same point, when it was in their best interes?

I'm not trying to point finger on Pelicans, every team that tanks does this.

Concept of rewarding losing in league that is being plagued by gambling is deadly combination. Flood ates are now wide open.

People keep mentioning gambling addiction to explain Terry Rozier, but there are plenty of things he can gamble on if he's an addict, to place bets or be a part of placed bets on your own performance implies to me he needed the money, no? Particularly when you account for all he's risking by doing this. IDK.

Is this the main thread for this issue? There's also one with Chauncey Billips in the title.
Anyway...

The most shocking part of this story is that the mafia is still alive. I thought Rudy Juliani killed it in the 90's. Maybe I should've put this comment in the other thread since it pertains to the Chauncey Billips branch of this scandal.

I still think one of the worst was OKC sending Al Horford home around the ASB in the year when they drafted Chet. I mean, what the heck was that?

But yeah, let’s all focus on Rozier bouncing out of a game early when many shady things are done by teams to intentionally lose games. Scratching players before the game start is almost like deception to those buying tickets hoping to see a particular player.

NBA has far bigger issues than Rozier and Porter making bets related to their over/unders.

Adam Silver is joke. Likely the most corrupt commissioner of the last 100 years in pro Sports. Has to be if this is true, which would not surprise us.

One thing is very clear, regardless of the result of this scandal, is that Adam Silver is a failure of a commissioner. He doesn't run a tight ship and no one seems to be afraid of any repercussions from him. They pulled Rozier out for the season? That's it?

It's like the patients are running the asylum. I didn't like David Stern but the league never seemed to be so chaotic like it is now. This right on the heels of Ballmer's cap circumvention.
