Some professional basketball players in the Philippines coming from the major basketball league called PBA has shared their reactions on social media.
Most of them said "these players disrespected the game of basketball."
Some said they are even lucky to be playing despite the pandemic where a lot of professional basket players has lost their job.
If the match was fixed then they should get a life time ban as it is not just disrespect to the fans spending their time thinking it is a fair game and then getting cheated and the millions waged on matches.
I personally know that something like this has been happening since before in every sport, but with this obvious is such a huge disrespect not only for the game itself, but for the fans as well. This is such a huge fraud.
Match fixing is not new and it is going on for decades and we only hear about these when some high profile players are caught in some sting operation and rarely we dissect matches and think that they could be fixed. I have lost a lot of money to unexpected upsets in the past one year, some of the matches i felt fishy but we have no authority to know those.
Im sharing this story for everyone who doesn't believe in fixed games in sports.
Match fixing is possible but what i do not agree is that these fixed matches will be sold online and if anyone says that to you that they have hundred percent fixed matches then they are lying.
