the only way "the decision" couldv been worse

is if he gathered teams around for a national televised special where the teams played a dramatic match of bingo to see who would get to give him a 100 million $. Could call it LeBingo.

That's crazy talk

He may make a lot of decisions that people hate, but he has an iron grip on the league that has done a lot in fixing the games image. Owners respect him, players respect him, and have you seen the second in command? That guy will be walked all over. Stern is one of the best things to happen to basketball.

What respect?

How do the players respect Stern? He let them run wild for the better part of the last 15 years, abusing drugs and violating dress and conduct codes without so much as a thought to his approval. NBA ratings and popularity have steadily declined over the last 15 years.

More than a handful of NBA teams are financially underwater (or were until they sold all their talent to get out from under the debt), had to borrow from the NBA and he not only brought about a lockout but agreed to a CBA that neither works in generating parity, nor does it keep teams from overloading with talent.

But yeah, he go the NBA a sweet deal with a refrigerator company.
