10 years from now, Stern will be sitting in a Federal Prison eating turkey gravy potatoes, it might not be from this "reffing" scandal, (although I made my screen-name after the '03 Blazers-Lakers conference finals that were heavily favored toward the Lakers) or the disgusting antics behind the moving of the Seattle SuperSonics, or from the Suns '07 screw job, or the hundred of terrible moves by this idiot of a commish.
This guy has unbelievably survived the fall of the NBA, turned it into a superstar love fest, and then when moderate Americans turned their back, traded our loyalty to the Europeans, letting hundreds of should-be post players who prefer to loiter around the three point line infiltrate the NBA to get out of nation interests amped up. The Spurs aren't the biggest market in America, but worldwide they're huge. Surprised they find it into the finals every other year? (they are a good team, but they do get an unhealthy dose of friendly calls).
Long story short. Stern is dirty. Where is the investigative journalism that needs to put this guy behind bars. In an era of dirty CEO's, Stern is getting a free pass because he isn't affecting the pensions of thousands of workers. But he is equally as unethical, immoral, and downright criminal as any the "thugs" he's allowed in the NBA.
