wow, thanks for posting that bbd. what a mess for the NBA.

Cuban stepped up and hit a home run with his public statement. We'll see how Stern fares.

You know Cuban is smiling inside and rejoicing in some amount of vindication. That's the biggest difference in my opinion between people like Cuban and people like Sterns. With Cuban, I feel we've seen the genuine person, the guy doesn't always stop to think about tact, diplomacy or public perception before blurting out exactly what he thinks and feels. With Sterns -- Selig and about 99% of the politicians could be good examples as well -- you never know if you were just fed a shovel of bullsh¡t or not. Chances are you were just lied to once they've opened their mouths. Right now, I'd bet that Sterns is being coached on what to say, and how to say it. Cuban just sat down and typed out his thoughts.

You forgot to add Gary Bettman to that list Willie. Bettman might just be the worst of the three. Now what I find rather interesting about that is the fact that Bettman was under David Stern's wing before he took the NHL commissioners job. All three of those commissioners are a joke, but the worst one is has to be Bettman bar none IMO.

Knowing what we know now could you really blame Dantoni going crazy. Just checkout some of these calls he made in this game. Unbelievable.

Nice share. Thank you.

On the opening the video is hard to see a conspiracy largely because refs are so inconsistent in their calls anyway. The NBA opens themselve up to this by letting stars get away with shit and not having uniform calls to begin with.

Sorry, Dan, but the only thing I know about ice is you use it to make margaritas or to cool down a tall glass of sweet tea. I've been to one hockey game since the Howe's were in Houston in the 1970s.

One team losing on purpose? Nah, the Celtics did that just last year. This ref issue raises questions about the integrity of all major US sports and could have an economical impact.

David Aldridge ask that 1951 scandal question to Stern today, and Stern admitted it was a good question. Then avoided to answer the question ad claimed it wasn't the same type of thing, because it happen with college players and not pro players.
