Does Anyone Else See The QUality of Basketball improving when Stern retires?

[I-Hate-You]

Nope...we're going to miss this Jewish Tyrant!

at least Seattle can get a team back when he's gone

 

[USSInsiders]

at thinking anything is going to change with Silver instead of Stern. Not like Silver is a jewish name or anything

wait....u watched the NBA 30 years ago? how old are u? Stern is the only commish I know...

Baseball is in trouble. The only thing that's saving baseball is the influx of great Latin American talent. Football and Basketball will always be 1 and 2. It won't happen in our lifetime but Soccer will become #3 in about 25-40 years. It has already begun.

Basketball is gonna take a small hit but it'll weather any storm. Having said that I don't think the NBA gets any worse or better.

Unless you were born before 1984, you wouldn't know who the last commish was. Larry O'Brien was the last NBA commish before David Stern took over in 84.

c/s All I see in Silver is another uptight, bytchmade Stern clone.

Don't see the NBA gettin' any better, if not worse. Hope I'm wrong...

Some folks will tell ya hip-hop died when it became mainstream, circa 1986 or so. So this point is kinda moot

He need to take all his refs with him. I'm waiting to see how Silver will run things if he's gonna be a little loose or just Stern 2.0

Silver's a nice guy, but likely a pushover.

damn so Biggie Pac NWA etc... wasn't good. The last great year of hiphop was 2002 or 03 and the NBA been ass since. It is too modernize and doesn't reflect America ways of living. They made it a business and international. Only reason NBA is alive now is instagram and Twitter lol the league so out of reach now.

Ppl in this generation belive Jordan to be the greatest. Older ppl from the past generation will tell u Kareem was the greatest, or how two generations ago, Russell was the greatest, etc. Jordan was great no doubt, but some will tell ya he ruined basketball. Same sorta thing w/ hip-hop. This generation crowns Biggie and Pac, yet Rakim, Melle Mel, and Kane arguably were better(@ the very least), and trashes this generation's rappers for talkin' bout the same shyt they did. Not to take away from their talents, but as great as Christopher and Lesane were, they ultimately helped to contribute to the mess that hip-hop is now.
