$25,000 for comments on refs. Rivers and McMillan were fined too.

To that last part, all I can say is "duh." NBA's kindof a business, and the guys that get put in charge of businesses tend to care about money.
Other'n that, why would anyone be that dumb?
- Public defamation of your employer
- You likely have no hard evidence with which to back up either claim
- Would anyone be surprised if he had mob/mafia/other ties? Can't speak for whomever, but I like my kneecaps and other organs and supporting structures in their current configuration.
- Even if he doesn't, he's a lawyer. Under most circumstances, you don't publicly mess with them.
- etc, etc
- JVG was fined what, $150k for that? I like money too. He also never would have gotten a job with ESPN/TNT had he not complied, nor possibly even anywhere else, without Stern's intervention. (being fired for insubordination on national TV will do that)
