This was the last chance Stern had for a Lebron Kobe finals, and he didn't pull the trigger. In fact, he let the mavs go colorado on Kobe's tired old ass.

Maybe it's not rigged after all.

One thing Stern and his goons are defenseless against are open three point shots that are falling. No way they can stop that unless they call a few off the ball fouls on the other team.

Stern didn't get where he is by such short-term thinking. The beat-down set the stage nicely for the upcoming Dwight Howard trade, even down to the flagrant fouls by the principals.
