KD continuing the trend of players getting annoyed with being spammed by sports bettors when their parlays don’t hit. I doubt it’ll stop anytime soon with the league continuing to expand it’s connections with sports gambling

    If I could defend my guy here… I don’t want anybody betting on if I clear my audit at work either. That’s just a weird situation. Your money is riding on my performance in a specific situation. That bet is on you, not me.

    Legacy points added. I’d say this puts him at #1 in the mvp race

    Been there done that. Spammed a tennis player from Myanmar’s DM because he screwed up 10 match points. Not proud of it

    I have no qualms about the legality or morality of sports betting itself.

    However, sports media getting more and more sports betting-centric over the last few years has been so fucking annoying.

      Same boat as you. I enjoy watching nba but I don’t bet and I don’t mind if people do but the constant coverage, and commercials talking about over and under is annoying.

      Try live in Lithuania where every other sports team and league has some betting company baked into their names

      People talk more about sports betting than they do small market teams! And I get that’s what people want to hear but it still sucks

    Gamblers that can’t take accountability for their bets and then harass players are the lowest form of sports fan.

    I know this is reddit and this place tends to be an echo chamber regarding most topics. This particular topic though bugs me to no end. I honestly wouldn’t mind sports gambling if it wasn’t so in your face.

    The start of the game brought to you by Draft Kings! The Fanduel halftime show. Sham breaking news sponsored by FanDuel. This player is shooting free throws so its time to show you the over/unders for today. Welcome to JomboyMedia sponsored by Draft King. Today were playing Madden brought to you by BetMGM. The FanDuel Postgame show. Bet 5 dollars and you COULD win 1000000 dollars ^(see terms)

    It’s so crazy to see how normal it is becoming to pushing such a harmful addiction onto people.
