NBA did everything in its power to make sure clips would win this game.
We are so desensitized to it but how is this shit not investigated. The amount of money riding on games now should have the fbi all over this type of shit. One play here and there isn’t an issue, it’s that this happens every single day with such blatant reffing.
The FBI tried. Stern purposely blew their cover and ended their investigation because it IS crooked.
No different than the WWE, only difference is the fans of wrestling know it’s scripted and love the production anyways. NBA is like that for me. It’s not fully scripted or anything but there are outcomes the league wants and nudges towards, but I still enjoy it.
well the other big difference is that the performers aren't aware of it either
