Both of you need to either stop joking around or get a clue. If you dont see how the NBA would have problems with this than you both need more help than anyone here can offer. Sure its only $10 but gil is still making bets on games he is playing in (that there is the difference between him and barkley). Where do you draw the line after this?? You can bet on games, but, only ones you dont play in? You can bet on games but you have to keep the toal under $58.35 (or some random arbitrary number thrown out there)?
The NBA has enough problems as is with people saying games and/or refferees are fixed, the last thing they need is a potential point shaving scandal with players making stupid bets before games. Now do i think Gil would actually be involved in point shaving? OR COURSE NOT! But why even put yourself in such a horrible posistion?
