Portland Trail Blazers coach and Miami Heat player arrested on charges of conspiring with mobsters to fix games and bets.

When leagues partner with sportsbooks, they invite the fox into the henhouse and then act surprised when feathers fly. Federal indictments do not happen in a vacuum, they follow years of normalizing betting as part of fandom. I want accountability for anyone who cheated, and I want the NBA to stop treating integrity as a PR slogan. Fans, especially kids, deserve a game that is not quietly priced and packaged like a slot machine.
