Have to wonder about refs on this issue too.

I have no doubt there are many more players and refs involved. Way too much money.

We’re gonna have to rediscover as a society that gambling is very bad.

Reading that article, I was wondering how our leading scorer go so many quick fouls that were ticky-tacky.
Some of the problems aren't even coming from organized crime, but giving betting tips to friends and family on some small statistic like number of a player's rebounds or some other factor in the game.

Prop bets should be banned. They are the biggest part of the problem, and it is much easier to have a friend or family member to place a bet that you will have 1 less rebound than what is called for. Actual point shaving is a little more difficult to work, but all the prop bets are just too enticing. Clean that up, and it will go a long way.

I’m shocked at how many of my friends make these sucker bets.

I was thinking more on football.
But how many times this season in basketball has one of our players just turned the ball over without even being guarded with less than 2 minutes on the clock in the game or just falling down for no reason turning over the ball in the process
