What's bad about this is Arenas isn't really a bad guy. He just likes to be funny and entertain people. Yes he made a mistake, but the worst part about it is that the NBA has really turned things around in this area, so the casual observer will point to this and say "AH HA! The NBA still has problems, that's why I don't watch anymore", even though the thug attitude and selfish individual play has diminished. The level of team play has improved and players seem to really want to win now instead of just pad their personal stats and street image.
but, you still have those refs that make some shady calls and david stern really needs to leave...other wise the league is getting better...unless the team you root for sucks.
