Back in the day there were a lot of exposed point-shaving cases, especially in US college basketball. Players messing up shots on purpose, keeping the margin just right, and all that because they got paid off.

Now my question is… do you guys think that really stopped? Or is it just happening in a quieter way today? Sports betting is way bigger now, and with live betting, props, and even crypto sportsbooks, there’s even more money floating around.

Sometimes you watch a team blow a big lead out of nowhere, or some dude just missing free throws he normally sinks easy… makes you wonder if that’s just one of those bad nights or maybe there’s something fishy, like shaving points. Idk, maybe I’m just being paranoid, but feels like it never really stopped, just harder to catch now.
