I’m hearing a lot of thoughts that regulation is key to catching these NBA betting scandals, but my father in law ran a book back in the late 20th. It was against the spread and over/unders. If you came to him with a Terry Rozier prop bet, he would have chased you out of the shop

A little unlucky for BVB. Not that the red on Mane was a bad call. I think they played fine.

BVB halftime thoughts: Midfield w Jobe
Is a vast improvement. Couto had some fun plays. Guirassy remains great at everything but PKs. When/id Can comes back, really hope he takes them from now on.

Having Haller as a backup to Guirassy seems more than fine. Guirassy wants to play every game, so a younger backup probably won’t get many chances anyway.
