>Well it's it's the probably the the most stupid thing that a player could do.
>Absolutely just stupid. I hate to use that word, but it's the worst thing that any NBA player, any professional player who's had a dream to make it, and especially somebody who's making a lot of money to get themselves caught up in anything like that.
>We've already seen I think some of the things that are coming down and I guarantee you they regret the hell out of what they did and probably didn't even think they were doing anything wrong.
>That's why it's so important we give this speech every year about it about not not giving any tips talking about injuries and stuff like that.
>But when you get in bed with them as a league, all the leagues are in bed with gambling sites and they advertise on your network, It seems like everything's okay. And it seems like to me that's a contradiction of what we're trying to do from a purity standpoint, at least from that standpoint.
>So I think all those things have to be sort of addressed, but as we see all of this stuff play out. We'll find out soon what going to come of it.
>But I think it's the worst thing that any player, coach, official, I don't care who it is, what are you thinking of? You know, what are you thinking of?
>I don't give my wife a tip. I wouldn't give her a tip.
>"Who's playing tonight?" "I don't know who's playing tonight, honey. I don't know." The the doorman says, "Well, how's [this player]?" "I don't know how he is."
>But I'm not trying to make light of it. It's pretty serious. And I just hope the players realize that's not a road you want to go down.
