Risky stuff.

[insidehoops]

With 1:56 left in the first half, Duke leads by three.

Butler's 9 offensive rebounds are what have kept them in this.

HALFTIME: Duke 33, Butler 32

Duke is shooting 50%, Butler 34%. But Butler has hit the offensive boards very hard (10 in first half) and taken 12 more shots than Duke.

For Duke, Kyle Singler has 9 points, 5 rebounds. Nolan Smith has 9 points (but on 9 shots). Jon Scheyer has 8 points, 3 assists and 2 blocks.

For Butler, forward Avery Jukes has come off the bench to hit 4-of-6 with two threes for 10 points. Shelvin Mack has 8 points (but on 9 shots). Gordon Hayward has 4 points (on 7 shots) and 7 rebounds.

The entire Butler team has just 3 assists, 1 steal and no blocks.

Butler got hooked on about four or five calls in a row, and they're still only down one. Every single one in that series of calls was a bad call, and every single one went against Butler. If those calls had been made correctly, Butler would have a 5 - 7 pt. lead.

So if a 72-10 team is facing a 20-60 team, you don't know who will most likely win? Okay.

the raptors beat the bulls

[brwnman]

the raptors beat the bulls

yessir they did. on that 72-10 season...

[GP_20]

the raptors beat the bulls

And would you lay $50 on the Raptors or the Bulls? Now do you get the point.

It's not about who wins. It's about who would you put money on. That's what I was arguing.

if i had fair odds and knew all the game circumstances, possibly.

hopefully this guy gets a greater return than $50 if butler wins
