Last night had one of the most insane betting endings I have witnessed in a long time, and it happened in a Pistons @ Kings regular season contest at the end of December smack middle in the NBA season. I had Pistons +5, Over 224.5, played back with Under 227.5, and a Demar Derozen Under PRA 29.5 Prop, here is what happened…
The Pistons were down 17 points at the end of the 3rd quarter and started chipping away at the deficit midway through the 4th. With just under two minutes left, it was a 5 point game 107-102. It was still over 15 points away from my total, pushing not even covering the spread, and as had I thought every bet had lost I was suddenly back in striking distance but it was bleak. Malik Beasley would go nuclear, Cade would come up with some big plays… and then my man Jaden Ivey won the night!
Down 3, 113-110, with 9 seconds remaining the Pistons inbounded the ball. The Kings did not foul (they absolutely should per emerging NBA end of game strategies- hat tip to Joe Mazzula for bringing this into the prominence of the NBA), and the ball would swing swing swing and find Jaden Ivey in the corner. Pump fake and gets De’Aaron Fox in the air. Side step and jump, Fox fouls him on the arm, Ivey fights through it and drains a 3. 113-113, with a chance at a four point play to end the game. Ivey sunk the FT and it was game over.
Pistons +5 ✅. Over 224.5 ✅. Under 227.5 ✅. Derozen Under PRA ✅
I swept the board and hit a middle on an insane comeback win for the Pistons on the road. WOW! Here is the highlight ⬇️
