Thanks for blocking the CP3 trade. That Lakers team with D12, Kobe, CP3 would have destroyed any team in the NBA no one whould have ever beat them. It really would have been a globetrotter leage then. I glad Stern did this but it would have been nice to see the destroy the Heat year after year after year after year in the finals.

As the commish David Stearn is making the "NBA" look really bad. He has is hand way too deep in the cookie jar and is messing up the intergrity of the "NBA". It's just not right the way he is handling everything. I am just wondering why they ended the strike, seriously??

What exactly did Stern mess up. The Hornets are league owned and he didn't what any good owner would do, get the best young talent for one of its superstars. If the Lakers had gotten
Chris Paul in the first deal, there would be no way the Lakers would make up the approx 30+ points from Odom and Gasol. Plus CP would be one and done in Lakerland...

Stern messing up the integrity of the NBA? I think the players have done a pretty good job of that on their own. I knew that the Lebron & Bosh deal was going to create a trickle effect around the league where all the super stars would join forces. These selfish players have ruined the game. You have 3-4 teams out there with the exception of Oklahoma that will actually have any sort of chance in the post season.
I think Stern and the NBA should just start over. Draw up a new contract and which ever player is cool with the terms of the contract can play, the rest of them can take a hike. Through drafting over the next 10 years you'll be back to the competitive and talent level your at now. And that my friend is the only way you'll save THE INTEGRETY OF THE GAME.

(agreed) The three queens in Miami started this but what should other so called superstars do just sit around and let the Heat win championships. For now just enjoy NBA entertainment because the rings will be as fake as WWE belts for a few years. Its not David Sterns fault that players are lovers and not fighters anymore.
