Sorta off topic - mostly off topic. Was checking out espn for a second to get their basic thoughts on the game....

When did espn get so heavily focused on gambling lines? It must be huge for viewership, as it's featured once every 10 minutes or so, but this is a recent phenomenon, right? I suppose the combination of recently legalized online sports betting and quarantine will do that, but I was surprised.

Exactly

More than $20 billion has been bet with U.S. sportsbooks since the Supreme Court struck down the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act of 1992 on May 14, 2018. The federal statute, commonly referred to as PASPA, had restricted regulated sports betting to primarily Nevada for 26 years, before being ruled unconstitutional.

Eighteen states -- representing just over 30% of the U.S. population -- now have regulated sports betting markets, with several more on deck. The District of Columbia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Washington and Virginia have passed legislation, and 16 additional states have active sports betting bills, according to the American Gaming Association. In the coming years, industry authorities expect more than half the states in the U.S. to offer legal sports betting.

Heat are playing well lately.

I wonder if the Jazz like starting being down for some reason. Every start is off for some reason.
