One oddsmaker told me today he’s been taking “non-stop bets on Jordan Poole” as NBA scoring leader.
At @DKSportsbook, Poole has the most bets (20%) to lead the league in scoring

It’s amazing what a guy can do when he’s not being punched in the face.
" Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face "
Dray was trying to do him a favor to give him an opportunity to be resilient and to be able to " roll with the punches " lol
This just means more regular people (read: idiots) are putting money on bad Poole odds, making them even worse.
Do commenters here realize that placing a bet on something 100-1 or 40-1 is fuckin miles from betting that it will “probably” happen?
It’s Giannis’s award to lose lol
It would be really funny if Poole chased the scoring title while we were on pace for 20 wins
No Wizard would ever pool
Casuals.
Wizards could have a pretty good offense this season but their only real scorers in their starting 5 are Kuz and Poole and Kuz is an inconsistent overall offensive player. Tyus’ presence to me means Poole could be a lot more efficient this season than people think but he’s going to be keyed upon and won’t be really in the position to score enough to lead the league. I can see him averaging 27 or something though.
lol Poole is not gonna get the scoring title. Embiid, Luka, Shai will all get over 30 ppg easily.
Made that bet 2 weeks ago at +1000 on DK. Not likely to happen but F-it.
At 40-1, no thanks.
Ah yes, interesting, I probably should have considered the perspective of degenerate gamblers who bet on anything.
