i think its like diving in football, all pros would say they dont agree with it, but many have done it when they think the reward is great enough, i dont agree with cheating, but i have done it, when on the spur of the moment i have made a decision to loose a shot or to play on for a second or 2 to trade out with a guy, which im pritty sure everybody has done, knowing u got shot first but making sure u take the guy aswell is just as much of a cheat in the eye of the law as losing i shot, are people bigger cheats if they lose a shot or simply just play on with a shot on them, i dont no. plenty of people do both, Its that situatuion like spangley said is the gain worth more than the risk and players make a split second decision about it, i think to be the best in the game and compete to the highest standard you have to go into the game without being naive to cheating, the best teams will cheat to a degree and that will be part of the reason why they are the best so you almost have to match it to give yourself a chance in the game! its part of the game and people just have to accept that,
But i am a firm believer that when its your teams time to win, then you will win on most occasions, for example if london nexus turn up to a tornement and draw billy and the bollocks, who do the refs expect to win?? NEXUS of course, so were do the refs look when some one is gun fighting at the nexus player or the billy and the bollocks player? not the nexus player because they dont expect him to get shot, now its not a criticism towards the reffs its just natural instinct of the reff, of course they will look at the stronger player at times but they expect the other team to get shot,
so when your winning and everybody expsects you to win it becomes easier to win, and possibly cheat, i beleive when a lower team beats a stronger team they have do go a long way to beat them and not just match them because if all they do is match them then the favorite team generally wins!
i guess people wont agree with what im saying but its just my opinion and not gospel,
