    This does not bolster Adam Silvers desire to expand wagering on NBA games.


    """The NBA fined Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban $600,000 on Wednesday for comments he made about tanking during a podcast with Hall of Famer Julius Erving.

    Commissioner Adam Silver said the fine was for "public statements detrimental to the NBA." The league said the podcast with Erving was posted Sunday, the day the All-Star game was played in Los Angeles."""

    Couldn't happen to a "nicer" guy. Not that it matters much, 600k to Cuban is like pocket change to the rest of us.

    I dunno--he seems to negotiate hard for $10 or $20k on Shark Tank.

    That show though is as phony as his tanking basketball team.

    Should have fined Cuban 60 million - that would have stung the billionaire at least a little bit.
