MPJ was in on it too

MPJ would NEVER throw a game to make a measly 5 figure win when he's in the middle of a max contract.

That's why his post doesn't make sense

You absolutely can keep tabs. Now that it’s legal shyts getting outed, whereas before with illegal bookies they had no recourse

I get that. So obviously Lavar Ball cant bet on LaMelo. But shyt lets say Melo is sick and it hasnt been officially announced and Lavar casually mentions it to an old friend from his childhood (you know parents tell all your business ). They monitoring that nikka? Or if the friend tell his friend. What if the stealing brother (cant remember his name) pillow talk with his broad and she tell her cousin? Like the 6 degress of seperation with any pro player is insane. With stars its gotta be impossible.

I always wonder how they police prop betting. With a player on his level its one thing because any sort of activity is gonna raise eyebrows. But with prominent players and coaches what is stopping them? I mean you cant monitor everybody they know.

why would a prominent player making $20M+ annually even risk it? they make too much money to be worried about a stupid prop bet.

Made 20 racks off Raptors misery. All @MikelArteta gets is pity and embarrassment whenever he leaves town

Mans can never be discreet. Always crash out.

Why did you have nikkas betting tens of thousands on you in any direction.

Nobodys gonna know.

"There gonna know"

My thinking/scenario is:

Jontay talks to his brother as normal
MPJ tells him about his health status (i.e. my back has been killing me the last 3 games but I'm playing through it)
Jontay relays info to his people and they bet the under
Jontay & co. profit

This is all without MPJ's knowledge.

Too bad he doesn’t have an interpreter to dumb it on

 

[Braman]

A rare stern move from Silver (don’t ask me how)

This was a really important example, most specifically bc they detailed how he was caught. These are young 20 something’s who think they’re smarter then everyone else. There’s plenty of nggas doin this on a lower level: having a direct associate place bets, or changing their name by one letter or some shyt and think that’s makes them undetectable. A lot of dudes will dead shyt all together off this

Anybody ever notice Shais O/U is always 30.5

And he scores either 31 or 30 pts like every game

Fishy bets get looked into, yes. Seasoned bookies can flush that stuff out with ease.

Silver used Porter as an example for the rest of the players to not do what he did.

I respect it….its about time he showed some balls nh.

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

I'm saying what if he did it tho?

The nba would hide it. The nba is tied to lebron in the present and the future when he becomes a team owner.

That being said Lebron is a legit billionaire he’s not dumb enough for this
