This is not right at all, and the League did the right thing by scolding Arenas for this before it could get out of hand.</div> Exactly, good points CB4. Considering what the league doesn't allow, it's would be ridiculously hypocritical for the league to let a player bet with fans during the game...etc...like Arenas did.

    Meh, it's 10 bucks. It's no big deal. I can understand them getting pissed off about it because it's a lot worse than some of the other stuff they fine for these days. But like most things that players get fined for these days, I see it as no biggie.

It's not that bad, but it's not very good for the NBA to be going against betting and so forth while one of its own players is betting. He didn't get fined, so I would consider myself lucky if I were him. The NBA is lucky that it hasn't had to deal with betting like the MLB has with the Black Sox thing back in the day and the Pete Rose thing not quite so long ago.</div>Okay thats exactly what I said. It's not that bad but it can't go withotu bringing attention to it, read my post.
