Toews Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Hated him when he was commissioner but since they brought in some bald, pencil-necked, poindexter, the NBA has tumbled further downhill. It was probably always getting there but the decline has sped up. Stern had an iron will, that everybody in the league had to bow down to. The new guy seems to always pick the path of least resistance, which requires him to bend over for everyone from players, coaches, agents, GMs to autocracies. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6string Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Stern like Bettman are actually are figureheads doing the wealthiest's bidding. See Democracy.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetterssonOrPeterson Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Say what you want about Stern but he played a MAJOR role in making the NBA a global brand. More well off than the NHL at this point RIP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xbox Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 He played a major roll getting the NBA to the juggernaut it is now. That Ewing draft was rigged af though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
