        Why? Did he insult Milwaukee as it not being on the map?

        Don’t fines go straight to charity? If so, who cares. But it is tampering. Executives can’t comment on players in any manner that would help induce them in any way to leave. If you knew Magic thought that highly of you, guess what, you start to think? Hmmmm...

        Then the Denver Broncos should be fined millions of dollars for their comments on Kirk Cousins.

        If only the Broncos were in the NBA and thus bound by NBA rules.

        Magic knew what he was doing and was hoping they would have a blind eye and hear to his comment.
