How? This is how a vast majority of non pro ballers would do a shoot around.

actually in regards to "fairness", custer agreed to all the little stipulations and changes you wanted to make after the first bet was proposed (ground balls + shooting), so i think it's entirely fair that you agree to the no rebounder stipulation

In regards to "fairness" I entered a bet I'm -EV in. He's the one that proposed the mystery shot, not me. The only thing I wanted to "add" was that we total all 300 shots, and since he's a better shooter, he should LOVE that add.

you're -ev in this bet?

why did he propose the mystery shot?

Wtf lol? If you're shooting around with more than 1 person, someone is always getting the rebound for the shooter.

I didn't propose a mystery shot. I proposed a mystery athetlic competition. One would assume that would mean a skill inherent to the sport in which the competition is from. I am sure your behind the back blindfolded granny shot fits this. But I should have seen your attempt at this. I knew you wouldn't actually want to test your athletic prowess.

I also accepted the ground balls comp on a 2/3 basis. You then bailed on both of those after you proposed and I accepted. Just be glad I don't force you to do them. Your men's softball skills would have to come out to play.

You know nothing about my shooting skills so stop saying it's -ev. You know nothing about babs shooting skills either. The difference is that you are simply a bully trying to pick on the one kid in class you think is actually more of a joke than you.

Yeah, I mean, I definitely agree that trying to handicap because you're tall is silly. The original bet against Babs he was a pretty big favorite in because Babs is in bad shape and probably unathetic, which is not the case here.

I think there should definitely be a rebounder for free throws at least. The point of FTs is to get into a rhythm and standing at the line while someone rebounds for you keeps that going

3 pointers is interesting for getting your own rebounds, but 100 would make it super long. This is just my opinion and not even sure if it would be possible because of equipment necessities but an extended version of the NBA 3 point contest would be great. Moneyballs wherever you want would add some strategy and you could do 3-4 rounds and add up your score at the end. But I'm just thinking about it from a viewing perspective, that would be way more fun to watch than running around shooting 100 3s (with or without a rebounder)

In all fairness you said your max bet was $2000 so then bet the $2000.

You are a man of your word aren't you?

Because he knew that I would be able to gain some minuscule advantage from it and be more likely to increase the wager amount, I'm guessing?

Wasn't there a separate thread for these shenanigans?

I have a range I was going to consider, and I'm still considering. It was instantly clarified. He initially offered the $500-$2,000 range, I'm considering.

Taking my post as an offer (when the offer had been proposed to me) is so "gotchaaaa"

I'll let Custer know the amount by tomorrow night.

Custer, how are we going to know that we will have a half court to ourselves if we're gonna meet at some random gym in Toledo?

Also, it's weird that you'd want to meet in Toledo, which is probably just as bad as Detroit.

Since you're willing to go to Toledo, how much "gas money" do you need to drive 40 more mins?

How dense are you? It has nothing to do with how safe or unsafe Detroit is.

No just no.

Also you just made me realize that toledo isn't nearly as neutral as my first glance! Good point.

$500 min, $2,000 max.



The secret shot will be within court, it's not something absurd.

This is the post greear.

This literally means you're taking action between $500 and $2000.

Your "character intentions" don't mean jack squat. Just like at the poker table if you clearly tap the table but didn't mean to it's still called a check.

Stop angling the prop bet.

G10,

Detroit is 200 miles away. That's 400 total. Wear and tear is like 30c a mile on my car. Gas is like 10 a mile. 160 in car expenses plus 7 hours of my time. I'll be nice and value that at $20 since it's a weekend. That's 300. Of you pay me 150 I'll drive to detroit.

Let me know.
