oddly enough the sport you'd think would have good reason to be against it, the NBA, has a commish willing to discuss it

Adam Silver: I believe that sports betting should be brought out of the underground and into the sunlight where it can be appropriately monitored and regulated.

He's relaxed, though not unguarded. "One of my concerns is that I will be portrayed as pro sports betting," he says. "But I view myself more as pro transparency. And someone who's a realist in the business. The best way for the league to monitor our integrity is for that betting action to move toward legal betting organizations, where it can be tracked. That's the pragmatic approach.
