NEWS: Federal prosecutors have been investigating whether NBA player Terry Rozier manipulated his performance as part of an illegal sports betting

[Ohene]

My homeboy got mad because he thought Jaren Jackson Jr wasn't getting rebounds on purpose. I was like "nah, dude just ain't a good rebounder. Bet on his blocks and pts"

Vegas made the call to St. John's recent game at halftime vs Georgetown. It was a lot of money on St. John's over on pts and Vegas was like

@Anerdyblackguy

I know for a fact shyt like this has to be happening in all sports especially basketball and football. Family members and close friends of the players have to be good off of this. If I'm a NBA player that averaging 28 points a game I telling my family and crew to always play the 19.5 over and 15+ shot attempts

I'm sure a bunch of nikkas averaging 15+ or consistently getting 10+ rebounds purposely tweaked and ankle in the first quarter and acted sore so the fam can eat off the under.

I'm not gonna lie, I would do it once a season in an irrelevant ass game if it kept me from having to spend my cash to help nikkas.

I think the penalty should be less for what Rosier did, but if you are throwing games then you should go to jail. No bullshyt.

I wouldn't say what Rosier did was harmless, but in a way, it was. He's no longer an effective player and the team ain't really a playoff threat. Id suspend him for like 50 games and fine him a nice amount.

To help people he knows without it coming out of his pocket.

Dumb asf, but I can't lie, I understand how a nikka would think this was a good idea.

He has to be stupid as fukk. You can see the logic, cause if I’m in the NBA it’s easy to tell a few of my trusted partners if I’m gonna come out the game early and to bet the under. But I also should know that any significant amount of money is gonna set off red flags so it wouldn’t be worth the risk at all, cause to stay under the radar it would have to be a insignificant amount. Thats if this situation happened like this

Problem is the league makes 8-9 figures off data providers/legalized gambling under the guise of integrity and things being on the level, yet they routinely turn a blind eye to this sort of stuff when presented with the evidence. Their own “investigation” into this when folks raised it in 2023 they brushed off. Now the feds involved and they have the goods, so they can’t ignore it anymore

Yep.

I wonder what is the minimum that would be considered a red flag. Like, if I bet 1,000 that he would get under 7.5 ast, and that was my only bet, is that amount enough to red flag the bet.

Watched eastern Michigan play and a guy had ten turnovers was literally handing the ball to the other team

Man Vegas likey got computer algorithms to know what the historical average is for amounts bet on teams, players, certain bets etc... So it’s probably gonna be different for different folks. Like I’m sure much more money is wagered on LeBron every night than Terry Rozier. He’s not gonna be one of them marquee players where so much money is wagered on him so I’m guessing you can’t go too crazy consistently without some alert being set off. I don’t know this for sure, I’m just assuming.

That one random guy on twitter knowing about Terry pulling out of that random game tells me this is a whole ring, maybe even organized crime

Probably in bed with the Russian hackers fukkin manipulating the stock market. While failing horrifically.
trying to make it look natural as day traders.
Yet so brazen. They go on Twitter.
To make the consistent oublic admission. That their success is a lie. As well as self admitting. Those same so called traders. would be trash as traders. If not for being russian government slash red mafia level hackers.
