Chauncey Billiups and Rozier got arrested by the FBI on gambling charges.

[QUOTE=tpols;15039062]Theyre black! Innocent!

Free OJ!!!

Thats exactly where I know Gobb has been gritting his teeth, ITCHING to go.

All this sports gambling shit and athletes rubbing elbows with mob figures is gonna lead directly to another OJ Simpson high profile kind of case.

You can book that.

[QUOTE=GOBB;15039069]What do you think was said about Malik Beasley? Honest opinion. In fact there’s a thread here made about it. Wasn’t no defending in there. Not many doubling back about judging him when charges were dropped. Yet he lost millions. So I’m not getting it. t[/QUOTE]


Charges being dropped doesnt mean he was innocent.

He was almost certainly not.

OJ murdered his ex-wife and her lover. A mafia member killing a high profile athlete's family member will not be the same thing at all, lol.

[QUOTE=FultzNationRISE;15039058]According to Windhorst:

The indictment also alleged that Billups, WHILE COACH of the Blazers, tipped off some gambler that Lillard, who was listed as probable for an upcoming game, would not actually play. Lillard was indeed downgraded to questionable LATER in the day and in fact did not play.


GOBB, your thoughts?[/QUOTE]

Damn, looks like he might have done some Pete Rose stuff.

OJ was connected to a mob figure named Joey Ipollito. OJ was involved in all this same kind of underworld stuff. Gambling, drugs, prostitution, extortion, scams, etc.

The shit we all saw was a high level, multi layered, fix job, cover up.

I feel like the NBA has been hiding a shit ton of scandals in recent years.

Remember that one ref Eric Lewis who favored the Celtics during games in 2023? Fans started to get suspicious and he conveniently retired after the season was over.

Legend also says MJ’s dad was killed because of his degenerate gambling. Yup a victimless activity. lol.

A lot of good fix jobs when it comes to the “gambling mob world” scenarios.

Hard to believe what’s real when it comes to Rose, MJ, Donaghy, and everything now since gambling has been legalized.

Recent years?

Laughs in Tim Donaghy. :lol

Its always been corrupt. Me and a lot of others tried to tell yall and we're labeled "conspiracy theorists".

Pablo Torre: Sources tell @pablofindsout Malik Beasley’s fate also hinges on DOJ announcement. And that MB was previously investigated and cleared by the NBA for “making a bet or two on another sport.” Source: “The NBA is under strict confidentiality but you can’t control the government”

x.com

Terry Rozier: Terry Rozier was never "cleared" by the federal government in this investigation, according to @pablofindsout 's reporting. Neither was Malik Beasley

x.com

What did everyone expect? Sports betting being made legal meant this story and who knows how many more in future were inevitable.

Did people really think only scrub two way contract role players would be corrupted? This is money and this is America. It also doesnt help that there is a gambling commercial every 5 seconds everywhere you look.
