Pinnacle Team Point Prop?

So yesterday some of you in the NBA forum might have seen I played team points.
Well my biggest play of the day was a team prop at Pinnacle, Portland over 97.5.
This question is for those familiar with this bet because they have the 15 bonus points. Well Portland scored 83. Portlands 83+15= 98. Over the posted total of 97.5.
If you know anything about this bet please tell me if I'm wrong because this was a big play for me and I think they made a mistake and graded it as a loss.

and their explanation of how this bet works is this
NBA/NCAA Propositions - Team Performance:
15 points for a win.
1 point for each point the team scores.
Total points equals team performance.

Example
Lakers 98 Final
Suns 80

Lakers Performance = 113
Suns Performance = 80

Thats insane. No wonder I lost every damn one I played.
I just thought I had to hit 83 then add the 15 points and I'd be over 97.5.
Their explanation for this bet is crap. Gonna get my money back.

Bro, I think it's explained pretty well in the rules that you only get the 15 bonus points for a win.

Sorry to hear that ODDS.
That performance PROP is shit.
They shouldn't even call that a prop.

A prop should be simple and is what it is.....a proposition.
Such as: Who will score more pts.....player A or player B??
None of this crap that if your team wins, you get another 15 pts added to your score.
That is like a penalty for "looking so good" LOL
