Inside the FBI and NBA’s Explosive Gambling Scandal: What Sports Bettors Are Refusing to Admit
Billups’ alleged involvement bums me out the most. Granted, he was arrested for participating in illegal poker games rather than rigging NBA games. Billups was used as a “face card” by the Mafia to lure his rich associates to the table. But I used to go to underground poker clubs in a past life. As far as I knew, they were legit. I mean, I won money, and I didn’t cheat.
Yet, the idea that Billups could’ve been in on the scheme to rip off gamblers is disgusting. There’s “illegal” and then there is “unethical,” which, in my world, is far worse. Hopefully, Billups and his legal team can prove his innocence. As far as Rozier, Jones, or any other NBA player involved in rigging is concerned, if the allegations are true, I hope the judge throws the book at them.
