I have always wondered if this was true.

His "retirement" from basketball to play baseball was actually a suspension for gambling on the game, but since he was bringing so much money to the game, they kept it on the down low.

Yes, he received a Stern warning and was told to never do it again. Mike thought he was above the game.

If he was bringing that much money to the game why suspend him and not tell anybody about it? Seems like you would just sweep it under the rug and let the money keep rolling in.

The biggest superstar to ever play in the NBA was secretly suspended for 2 years. Think about what you are saying.

Also, it wasn't a full 2 years. He came back almost mid-season.

You are a moron if you believe this stupid arse conspiracy theory.

He wasn't suspended ndude.

He was being investigated though. Leave the game for a while and things settled down.

Come back and play
