Did you see Dick Bavetta tonight? He was outstanding as a double agent! Way to give Denver the win to extend that series. NBA doesn’t get paid if there isn’t a Game 6 or Game 7.

Don’t worry Laker fans, Bavetta will be back for Game 7 assuming his typical role. Stern isn’t going to miss out on a Kobe vs Lebron NBA Finals.

I just made a somewhat decent justification for trading for Zach Randolph… and I was sober at the time

I believe it was written by David Stern to get us to come out of the bushes.. Rat Bastard!
I have it from a good source that Sterns birthday is February 14th even though he cleverly uses another date in his bio (get it 214 a coincidence I think not!), By the way ElRonToro just incase you’re reading this Mr. Stern, i mean 214.

Or an entire 3-cheat where the rules were changed for one team.

I can see that the worst of this site comes from the top-down, just like Reagan invisioned. : )

The three teams that vaulted the Kings to the #1 pick had the same number of wins (combined) as the Cleveland Cavaliers, averaging 22 wins each. They included the Clips (generally regarded as the worst franchise historically in the NBA, if not all of major sports), and Memphis and Oklahoma City (two NBA outposts that actually make Sacramento look like a big city). I can’t figure out what David Stern is up to here, but I know that you can.

Clippers – When David Falk refused to present the teams offer to Elton Brand, hence leading him to sign with the 76ers, the Clippers were preparing to legally challenge validity of the free agent process since there offer had been blocked by a vindictive agent. The plan was more to threaten and strong arm Brand back to the team. Still, David Stern intervened fearing a judge’s verdict could overturn his collective bargaining agreement. He avoided the legal battle by promising the Clippers the top pick in next year’s draft in order to look the other way.

Memphis – After the Tim Donaghy scandals and years or rating killing Spurs and Piston title runs the league was in financial pearl. Needing a ratings boast Stern decided to push his flag ship franchises to the forefront. He convinced his good friend, Sonics owner Clay Bennett to send Boston Ray Allen in order to grease the wheels and complete the Kevin Garnett trade to Boston. He than turned his attention out West to the Lakers, except there were no natural trade partners to improve their roster. After a half season of closing guarded talks with Memphis, he was able to secure Pau Gasol in very poorly executed trade scenario. In return he offered Memphis’s struggling franchise secret financial considerations and at least 2 lottery picks in the next 4 years. The Timberwolves for there effort are next in line to win the lottery, wait til next year.

OKC – I’ve already spelled out above that Stern owed Clay Bennett’s Thunder a favor, still it goes deeper. Cities out west have become increasing hostile towards financing new arena projects, which is vital for continued growth and profitability. Stern needed to make an example out of one franchise in order to get the rest of the cities back in line. Although Oklahoma City is Bennett’s home town, he’s still taking a great financial risk moving the team to such a small market. To help with the transition the Thunder have been promised a lucrative, young crop of talent. Hence a past #2 pick, current #3 with one more top lottery pick to come.

If you weren’t so crazy, then Section wouldn’t have been inspired to write this hilarious thread making fun of you. Keep doing what you’re doing. It takes all kinds to make the world interesting.

Thank you Mr. Stern.

TIM DONAGHY TESTIFIED TO SAYING SO!
F@#$ DAVID STERN!

There I said it. Call me a conspiracy theorist, but the odds of getting this much bad luck are about the same as not getting any calls in the second half of game 6… Just seems we are snake bitten, or it’s rigged. If it’s rigged, no one should care anymore. If it’s bad luck, no one should care anymore. Either way, we probably wont win 20 games next year either.
