Is sports betting causing NBA teams to rig games and throw playoff series?

Sports Betting is ruining sports. The teams are clearly throwing games they could easily win. Take the Celtics, you don't make me believe that you won one game against the same team by over 20 points, and then the next game you lose against the same team by over 10 points. That's a 30-something point margin of difference. That used to NEVER happen in Basketball. Like with the Chicago Bulls double three-peat team, when they blew you out one game, they blew you out every game, especially the second three-peat team with Rodman on the team with Jordan and Pippen.

I think and some of my family things they throw games 4 and 5 in the playoffs to increase ticket sales and television advertisement incomes and ratings. The only exception this year has been the thunder winning 4-0, which I'm surprised they even finished round 1 at 4-0, unless they're the one honest team in the league.

Similarly, I NEVER beat either of my neighbors in Basketball when I was a teenager, because both of them were better than me. IN a game to "first to 20" i could score 6 or maybe 8 points on them by the time they made it to 20... and I never even came close to beating either of them 1vs1 and never would since then either. You don't make me believe you can beat someone by 20 or damn near 30 points one night and then the next night, get beat by the same team by 10 points. That doesn't make any rational sense.

The FBI caught players losing games intentionally already. Just wait for it. There's more coming in the pipeline. I think the OWNERS are involved in the rigging of sports betting.

Just another example. The other night, one of these teams of PRO BASKETBALL PLAYERS shot just 59% from free throws. I have -10 vision in both eyes, but I can shoot 80% from free throws. I don't even consider someone "good" at basketball unless they can hit 80%. So explain to me why supposedly professional basketball players can't do any better than 59% from the free throw line.

Check out the Knicks with a FIFTY ONE point lead at half-time over the Hawks. They could have and SHOULD HAVE won this series in 4 straight games.

This is freaking ridiculous. They've rigged the entire series.
