It's two different sports. People attend hockey games partly for the fights, which the league still allows to an extent. We're talking about serious misconduct OFF the court with these thugs in the NBA. If Allen Iverson doesn't play, people aren't going to watch the 76ers play. If Kobe Bryant doesn't play, people aren't going to watch the Lakers. We'll see what happens with Gilbert Arenas, but he wasn't really a huge name to begin with. A year-long suspension is a long time....
