BAM
Good job Stern. I called this earlier today
Can't have owners representing the NBA like this. Plus LeBron did not deserve that. He was a Free Agent.
The things Dan Gilbert said is grounds for a civil suit for libel.
He had it coming. The letter was way over the top. Criticizing a former player is one thing, but I draw the line at Comic Sans.
I think we've reached the limit for Comic Sans jokes, unless they're really well done.
figured he would get fined, just didn't know when. Now if the NBA could fine itself for becoming a complete joke this summer I'd be happy
How dare he talk to the King like that. Off with his head.
It should have been a million IMO..hopefully the 100 000$ goes to the B&G..
It is a small price to pay for the loyalty he gained from the people of Cleveland.
Gilbert should match the fine and donate it to the boys and girls club.
Let this be a message to all NBA owners who shall act unprofessionally in the future.
what a philanthropist. for the kids!!!![]()
It does. Which suggests the obvious question, why are you upset over Gilbert getting fined? Clearly, he did it for the kids.
Um, what?..I wanted him to get fined more, because he deserves to lose the money and the kids deserve more money..
Step it up please..first rule of trolling is comprehension..
He pays the guy that wipes his ass 100k. No big deal.
civil suit and libel? oh cmon you ing pussy who wants to live in a world where we can't have free speech. he can say whatever the he wants about lebron, of course stern isn't going to want bad publicity against his collusion. i guarantee if i worked for espn and wrote an article about the nba being fixed it would get pulled, just like Gilbert was hushed.
If Cuban did something like this, he would have been fined at least 500K.
