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

Gambling has always been an issue but there's going to be a gambling addiction epidemic in the next decade. The high school kids I coach, who aren't even of age to gamble, are already putting way too money on sports games. I try to make them see that it isn't a good idea, but they're in it already. It's a plague.

The rise of gambling ads in the last few years have been sickening. I remember it used to be just the fantasy league shit with FanDuel and DraftKings. But now it has been on the whole different level with even the pre game shows promoting it.
