KD continuing the trend of players getting annoyed with being spammed by sports bettors when their parlays don't hit. I doubt it'll stop anytime soon with the league continuing to expand it's connections with sports gambling

Sports betting is a cancer to actual sports performance. It's fine if you do it but nobody who doesn't bet gives a shit about it, especially the players.

Also, prop bets are basically Goodhart's Law in action. Why would a coach care if one of his players has a low statistical night if they can get the win a different way.

Betting in general is a cancer. They are up there with Cigarettes & spousal abuse for me

Sports betting is literally just fantasy sports. There's nothing more uninteresting than somebody telling you about their fantasy team or sports betting outcomes. That's literally interesting to you and you alone. It's like people telling you about their dreams. Nobody cares about this made up nonsense that effects nobody but you.
