No I never said that either.
We said that the betting odds aren't always equal to the actual % chance that each bet has of winning according to the bookmakers. And that the lines are moved to encourage action. You made all the dumb assumptions. Again, you trying to take me to school on this.
hilarious

You can sense the desperation in his posts. It is past denial. He wanted this MVP so bad. It has consumed him.
And just like that, Russ took it away.

Boom: They are giving good odds on harden to encourage bets to come that way bc most of their money is tied up in Westbrook bets.
Me: says the guy who thinks the odds wildly shifted from Westbrook as a long shot to a huge favorite just to get the money closer to even.
Boom: No I never said that Or anything close to it
FYI gambling afficionado, they're giving good odds on Harden because he's a big underdog to win the award. Vegas doesn't give a favorite to win an award "good odds"

Boom was Trump before Trump.

TL;DR Russ is going to run away with it from what it seems.
Looks that way. I'd expect him to get 60-70% of the first place votes.

NEVER said this. never. Odds shifted from Westbrook long shot to where they are now bc of what happened on the court. Now the bookies realise they have too many westbrook bets and are encouraging bets on james with a tasty line. Again I can recommend a few books for you. This is one of my fortes you could say.
Can never tell if you are trolling or if you actually Believe what you're typing.

So the odds shifted because Westbrook's odds of winning greatly increased?
Got it!!!!
Just to confirm, Harden is 60% to win while the big Vegas underdog to Westbrook's favorite line?

What percentage of Piñata's posts the past fortnight have had to do with arguing something regarding the MVP race?
I'd set that O/U at 65% and take the over.

I guess Vegas no longer has voters on payroll to set a decent line...

He def has a lot of time, energy and emotion invested into the NBA MVP debate.

Not many people I know irl care one iota about MVP. If I wanna chat it up a little this is my best spot. Don't think NBA MVP affects b life outside of posting here TBH.

Why do you talk in 3rd person
Posted on 4/13/17 at 9:06 am to shel311
You gotta follow the line movement. And when and for how much bets were placed to get the whole picture. You don't have the capacity to put it all together and see what's going on. I laid it out CLEARLY.

Boom are you claiming you never said someone else's quote? Because, I think you spouting about reading comprehension may be a reflection on you, Cabron.

Westbrook is more likely to win.
You can come to grips with that now.

You should take a hint from them.

So the spreadsheet in the OP has 14 1st place votes for Westbrook and 5 for Harden. Westbrook also has all 1st or 2nd place votes, while Harden does have a 3rd.
3 suspected ballots, 2 more 1st place votes for Westbrook, none for Harden.
What does all of this tell us with about 20% of the 1st/2nd place votes known? Harden - 60% to win, obviously!!!

Lowe chose Kawhi.

Looks like he went against the grain on a few picks. Picked Pop for coach of the year. Also picked Iggy for 6th man. But that really isn't against the grain. I've seen more people voters pick Iggy for 6th man than anybody else.
