excellent news.

Yea if you take your sport from tape delay to live broadcast then you;ve doine a good job overall. No doubt he got some blemishes on that record but overall I'd say he done a good job. He easily has the hardest sport to regulate. That dress code shit was a major issue but years later that shit really helped kill the hip hop/thug image that folks were over blowing off a few bad apples. Basketball players has the most negative image in the media even though a NFL player is arrested every 5 mintues.

That changing of the basektball shit was dumb as hell.

never mind...they just said dreams of european expanison teams added to the nba will not be possible due to the economy downfall.....

The GOAT commissioner...compare Basketball from where it was in relation to other sports....and to what it is now. Look at the other commissioners....Gary Bettman? Is there a bigger clown in sports? Bud Selig who does nothing to improve the game for his fans?

Its the only sport of the big three to have a real international following and feeder system. Player salaries have damn near quadrupled and are second only to Baseball contract and they dont have a salary cap. Cleaned up the sports image which expanded its fan base.

And keep it real when he needed to...

The man can't be the commissioner forever. And to say that people are completely ok with it is irrelevant because fans dont have a say in these matters. But this aint new. This happens in all the major sports. Its always the person underneath the commish that takes over.

I gotta give him respect for bringing a team to my city. Its one of the better things he has done during his time as commissioner.
