Top Things To Hate About Betting Basketball🤬

[Wagerallsports]

My volume isn't as high as it once was, but over the years I've bet on basketball more than any other sport

In my opinion these regular scenarios in hoops are more frustrating than of those in betting any other sport

Both have an effect on the side and total, but usually determines the outcome of the total more so

#1 A team down double digits or more with under 1 minute to go, and it's players STILL intentionally fouling, pushing an Under over the total.
Yes we get it "Never Give Up" but when it's over, it's over. Some teams get this and will let the opposing team dribble out the clock, but more often than not you have these unnecessary fouls & free throws determining the outcome of the total

#2 An under is well in hand in a BLOWOUT, but in come the scrubs towards the end of the game running up & down the court like a bunch of idiots trying to get their garbage points, and push a sure under, over the total

I don't think anything in sports betting bother me more than the things above

Anything else you guys can think of I'm leaving out?

Those silly fouls late should be banned
Hoops so many swings

I agree percent as I'm an under player. There's nothing sexy about fn teams down 12/15 points in a game and doing what I like to call.. Here comes the foul fuckery Like I always say with a total it's not Over until it's under.

Just bet overs like most everyone does.

Just bet overs like most everyone does.

I don't think that's the case - Maybe in NBA

And most of my success has been with unders

 

[theriver55]

the runs if on the wrong side of it.

One I hate: when you have the dog + points and lose in OT.

Those are good ones.

Another one that kills me is teams missing freethrows. Sure missing one or two, OK. But any team shooting < 80% is insane.

my thing are all the bs fouls at the end, that why i use a lot of 1st halfs

"Foul Fuckery" is a perfect description!!! Has absolutely no effect on the game's outcome, EXCEPT to f*** up the under bettors!!!

Never forget

Tracy McGrady 13 points in 33 seconds

 

[charliebrown]

Time outs when you just want your bet to be graded in time to get down on the next game

Just once I'd love to hear a coach yell at his players "GUYS! IT'S OVER! STOP FU€K!NG FOULING SO WE CAN GET OUT OF HERE!!?

G league playings participating in dunk contest

 

[jjgold]

Anytime you say over and unders 240s go under

 

[Wagerallsports]

Anytime you say over and unders 240s go under

lol that sounds about right these days jj

 

[carolinakid]

unc game last night was too much like a nba game to me up and down shooting 3's, nba is who hitting the 3's now

 

[pipe]

When you have an under play and the slap fest foul fuxkery happens at the end of the games when a team is down double digits. Meaningless BS fouls.

 

[sharpsquare]

fkb brutal for sure


free throw shooting always gets me too. have a team -4.5 they win by 3 and went 7-17 from the line

UNC down 2 with a second to go. Guaranteed Nelson intentionally missed both free-throws as the game was over, zero ability for UNC to score again. That should trigger an investigation by the NCAA and gaming regulators should it not?? HE SHAVED THE POINTS. I had zero invested in the game and have no idea what the lines were so my give a shit is zero but the powers that be cannot pick and choose what's a deliberate miss and what's not.... my 2cents.
