David Stern: "I have done more for people of color than Bryant Gumbel"

[MillionMills]

its not "wassup"

but how you feel about Westbrook coming into that bytch lookin like shorty from Dirty Dancing tho?


Levels to this shyt

I don't fukk wit how he dress either nikka always looking moist

 

[UserNameless]

Stern sounding like Donald Sterling, "I feed them I clothes them"

 

[///Vega+++]

what has he done exactly
It's the players talent and hard work that made the NBA what is it today not the owners
he should be humble and sit down

 

[Nintendough]

Why you delete the comment nikka take the L and G up

 

[Squirrel from Meteor Man]

Bryant Gumbel wasn't lying, Stern did his best to treat the sport like slavery entertainment (shut up and play, stick to sports, etc).

Stern sounding like Donald Sterling, "I feed them I clothes them"

I was coming in here to say the exact same thing

"But but look what I've done for you boy"

 

[Made Myself A Boss]

but see heres some funny shyt for you real quick while i can get in a little more words than i normally would
ME, having that mentality of "being a man" and not buckling down like a child to some muthafukka is whats kept me able to do what i can and be a valuable asset for WELL over a decade at the company I work at
now how come its cool for white muthafukkas to be all Gordon Gecko and have these "take no shyt" attitudes...
but me as a black man cant do that shyt?

David Stern can answer your question better than I can

 

[Squirrel from Meteor Man]

That n word mentality keeps a lot of people on here from understanding basic mathematics...

They would rather "be a man" as one poster wrote and "keep it real " while being grossly underpaid. Instead of making real money

Its lonely at the top but I can't deal with them anymore

The NBA has been a star driven league. Stern didn't do anything to make Jordan, Bird, Magic, Shaq, Iverson, etc marketable. You think people wearing suits (which they don't even wear anymore for the most part) really made the game palatable

More white kids wanted to be iverson than anyone else, it did the exact opposite Stern wanted. He backed his way into gold like Columbus

 

[Rev]

Stern proved Gumbel's point with that quote alone.

 

[Squirrel from Meteor Man]

Let's not forget Stern was responsible for one of the most boring eras in basketball and tried to "popularize" the game bringing in 30 random European players every draft "

"but but it's the high school players killing the league!" Overlooking the numerous busts coming from overseas

 

[calh45]

of course stern gives the consummate slave owner's response

Stern sounding like Donald Sterling, "I feed them I clothes them"

And with that slave owners response he proved Gumbles point

Exactly.

I'm waiting for the coli brigade to explain how they wanted folks to boycott the NFL, but get real quiet when folks start speaking on the NBA's skeletons.

Talent is talent...but you taking the top 5 talents and making league wide assumptions...


Now nikkas like Mike Connley are getting paid the same that an iverson would ...

Im saying, call stern and slave master all you want..

but he got those slaves paid something serious

 

[BigMoneyGrip]

Exactly.

If Stern stayed as commissioner folk would have boycotted because Sterling would still be the owner in the face of the bullshyt he was on..

At least with Adam Silver he's showing he's more progressive and haven't said any suspect shyt plus him making Sterling sell the team shows he was about that action

 

[LastKING_BLU]

i really hate this smug fat faced fakkit

 

[bl2k8]

He did get NBA Players to stop dressing like 10 year olds

Went from

To

And that went a long way to changing the image of the NBA thus allowing the tv networks taking these guys serious and cutting them the record breaking money they're receiving today.


So I give him respect for that


But fukk him for that bullshyt as technical rule for being "demonstrative"..

it make the league look silly when you receive a tech for a stare down meawhile Baseball and Hockey are out here being priaised for fighting one another on television leveling it as "part of the culture"

Players started dressing better because Hip Hop dictates fashion trends in the black community, not David Sterns Jew ass. You sound just as bad as Stern

 

[CouldBeWorse]

Stern has zero chill
