the suits are employees so boss up on them

The rigged Lakers vs Kings game would be a good place to start. Superstars abusing HGH. The racist vitriol he has ignored from owners.

stern worked for the owners, this was a threat to the players. any buried bodies had to do with THEIR dirt. so he wasn't talking about racist owners or rigged games.

I hate conspiracy theories and people whining about stages outcomes but Stern was the one commissioner that I questioned

The guy said to the public that he moved the first round from 5 to 7 so less upsets would happen which hurts the later round matchups and nobody called him out on it

That actually seems reasonable and logical.

what's wrong with that? shorter series have more luck in them.

As a commissioner u can't publicly admit you'd rather sacrifice competitive balance for better matchups for tv

I still think his heavy involvement with keeping the Kings from moving and getting the new arena built was payback from that WCF game.

The Golden 1 Center is even on a street named after him

how does removing variability in playoff games sacrifice competitive balance?

imagine if some flunky 3 point shooting team like the Blazers w/ shooters like Dame and CJ get hot and upset the Warriors... NBA would lose millions

Which is why I don't watch the NBA anymore, i'll catch the Finals and thats it.

The other sports have upsets all the time and weird playoff and final matchups and they lived

NBA n MLB can flex on owners.....NFL players can't cuz ALOT of their players are horrible with their money n couldn't survive without those NFL game day checks.

So can we bump this after the Cavs magically come back and win the Finals again?

nba stats more than any other basically
they see so much money off the court
they need to wake up bron is a good start

but honestly it should be a league for and by the players the suits are just there to do the paperwork
