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

Ah yes, interesting, I probably should have considered the perspective of degenerate gamblers who bet on anything.
Is there a bet available on number of defensive matador ‘whoosh-es’?
A fool and his money are soon parted
the kids call that easy money nowadays, easy for the casinos
Lol
He’ll win fucking nothing
Dude is going to have the brightest green light in NBA history.
It’s amazing what a guy can do when he’s not being punched in the face.
He had nights like last night all the time on the Warriors. His problem is being consistent on a night to night basis and contributing when his shot isn’t falling.
" 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
Suckerpunched in the face
You say that like he didn’t do this on the Warriors last year or like he didn’t go 2 of 13 in literally the game before that one.
This just means more regular people (read: idiots) are putting money on bad Poole odds, making them even worse.
I don’t bet on sports at all but can I short this position? LOL
I’ve always wanted to do this but the profits are never worth it. It’d be fun to be able to for hyper-specific stuff.
Offer people 50-1
First, you’d have to build some sort of sports betting trade market.
Doesn’t need to build, it exists. Betfair is the best known one.
I guess you could accept other peoples bets on Poole
Imagine basing a bet on a pre-season performance against the Knicks end of bench.
Bro just hating to hate, why speak about a game you obviously didn’t watch?
He’s going to get a lot of shots up on that team, so it’s not that improbable.
It would be really funny if Poole chased the scoring title while we were on pace for 20 wins
No Wizard would ever pool
Honestly wouldn’t that be entertaining?
Tank commander supreme… in a way it must be liberating for him
Surely no one will think to pressure they guy who isn’t aware that passing a legal basketball move.
Second in total assists last season.
How to buy against this?
lol Poole is not gonna get the scoring title. Embiid, Luka, Shai will all get over 30 ppg easily.
Na he could. Sga may not score as much since Chet and others need shots, and maybe Luka decides to sacrifice so the Mavs can win. But u may be right but Poole is talented and he’ll have the opportunity.
Scoring title and a direct flight to cancun
