Mike McDonald Makes 90/100 Basketball Prop Bet

Mike “Timex” McDonald has come up with the latest crazy prop bet to entertain the poker community. With everyone basically under house arrest these days it’s no surprise that people will do anything for entertainment.

For the uninitiated, this might sound easy enough with practice but it’s not so simple.

As a small hint that Timex himself doesn’t think this is a walk in the park he has set himself the remainder of the calendar year to achieve his goal.

Just to put this into perspective, Steph Curry of Golden State Warriors fame, shot 90.56% from the free shot line over his entire career. This is an all-time record.

Aaron Jones, a former high stakes crusher, has been getting in on the Twitter threads pointing out that physical conditioning is another major factor here.

Can McDonald get himself into good enough shape under quarantine conditions to be able to throw shots accurately over the time required.

Another stat that will make you believe he is never going to pull this off is that Shaquille O’Neal, a legend of the sport, shot only 52.7% accuracy over his career.

Good luck Timex, you’re really gonna need it this time. $13 million in live tournament cashes or not, you probably have made a bad calculation this time.
