David Stern believes the New York Knicks are "loaded" and he is also hoping they form a budding rivalry with the Brooklyn Nets. "They are loaded, and that's why the Nets decided to load up," said Stern. "I would say that they're loaded still, but Amar'e Stoudemire being out six to eight weeks is a real potential game-changer, and they may be loaded in different ways," Stern said. "They have a replacement for Jeremy. ... I think the pundits that know more than I do were picking them preseason to do pretty well in that conference." With the Nets moving to Brooklyn, the rivalry with the Knicks figures to intensify. "I think the competition level is going to be wonderful for fans," Stern said. "I think it's great and it's going to propel the league to better situations." Source: ESPN
anyone hear about stern giving the spurs a $250k fine for not traveling a few of their superstar players during their recent grueling stretch of road games? stern is such a dumbheck. coaches rest their key players in EVERY sport all the time. only stern would try and dictate to each team which players they should play.
Yea I mentioned that in the post tramp thread. Completely out of line. He's just mad because it was against the heat on national TV. He's a freaking c**k sucker.
