The teams essentially let each other score as much as possible and rushed up shots every time down the court. At the end, each team let eadch other team dunk on purpose, partng the court for each other, as well as open threes. 160 closing total and they scored 221. They obviosly intended to just score as much as possible. I hope some of you stole some money on the over.

I didn't see it, but what a joke........

I don't think this game has gone over 160 in previous years past, most being much less than that.......

Did anyone really expect it to be anything other than a joke? I sure didn't!

The game was meant to be entertaining & it succeeded. Why do you sound like someone who is crying about having the under. I had the under but am not mad as loading up on the West side was easy money.

The East is totally overmatched & this year had to be the biggest case of a mismatch ever in this league.

They didn't clear the court until the last minute of play when the game was clearly not in doubt.

I did not have the under. I did have a free middle attempt on the 2nd half.

What nimue says makes sense though. As I said, in all previous years this game came nowhere close to today's high scoring affair.....

Clearly they were only trying to make the game more entertaining for the fans with lackluster defense......

Bought down and laid the 3..West doesnt lose this game..Another opportunity to wager..and a good one..

The league is far from a joke..Gaining stature each year..And guys like Lambeer..Cooper..others can stay in the game..Rothstein with the Sol in Miami..

High school womens HOOPS also gaining popularity..And some of these girls can play..
