The NBA wants 1 percent of every bet made on its games in addition to other regulations, a request that could create massive revenue for the NBA and other sports leagues in the future. (www.espn.com)

I hope the NBA refs try and holdout for a piece so the League can fire them all. -- nm - Beaker Jan 24, 09:54 5
- Yep-If you watch multiple NBA games you can tell the refs aren't calling clean games. NBA teams are also manipulating injury reports, up until tip off -- nm - Flavorize Jan 24, 10:01 2
  - one of the top 3 players in the League has been thrown out 4 times this year, granted Durant is a whiny baby but if I paid money I'd be pissed -- nm - Beaker Jan 24, 10:03 1
    - Yep--and some ejections are on such ticky tack stuff, no consistency They also happen more in games where a team is a high point fav too - Flavorize Jan 24, 10:07
- That would be an interesting wrinkle, players too -- nm - budice Jan 24, 09:56 1
  - I would imagine the players would have language in the CBA to determine what revenues apply to their salary cap - Beaker Jan 24, 09:58
Already have DFS, might as well. -- nm - budice Jan 24, 09:52 1
- Pretty much. -- nm - Strongbad Jan 24, 09:53
