It’s no big deal that Bradley Beal missed a layup (or two) in the first half of Wednesday’s game against the Boston Celtics, right?
It was just an honest mistake by a player who makes that shot nine out of 10 times, someone who has averaged over 30 points per game the last two seasons. And his Washington Wizards still held a 10 point lead going into halftime.
Sure, no big deal. That is unless you bet the over on a 114.5 first half total.

Beal’s misses weren’t too costly for the Wizards, who held on to beat the Celtics 116-107. But with the score 62-52, a total of 114, they definitely made a few bettors sick to their stomachs — and maybe a few others, who bet the under, extremely happy.
