if they even try to force He Who Shall Not be Named back on us, i hope Castro District starts a riot in his absence.
Ouch...
Dunno what he's crying about. Everyone in Miami seemed to enjoy the game. Didn't you see those fans rise to the occasion when they humiliated the Spurs with their multi-million dollar lineup?
Water off the back...

NBA will sanction the Spurs of draft picks. Pop wont be doing it again.
Stern has disrespected the league for whom he is designated to protect...the NBA is attempting to build a wide-international audience, and the Spurs just happen to be the only team with such a varied roster full of Olympians and World Championship veterans. So, instead of saying that tonight's game was a great chance to showcase a team filled with international players...he basically s on the "quality" of the Spurs bench and the "quality" of all players that are not All-Stars. It's complete, utter bull and I hope someone has the balls to tell that dude he's really lost his mind and can't retire soon enough.
Bring on the "substantial sanctions," choke on this meat and throw that song on repeat.
By the way, I love Craig Sager for asking the follow up to Stern about scheduling.
Stern doesn't care about international player. He cares about international viewers... and let's be honest here, few peeps are paying to see Mills and De Colo brick shots.
Stern needs to avoid issuing statements like that without consultation. I hope he steps down because of this.
Scotty Pippen Tim Duncan
No, the NBA will not go that far. They'd end up in court over something like that, and it would be a no-win for Stern. He'll fine Pop and the organization will take care of it. Time to move on.
GO SPURS GO!!!!!
Stern's minions, aka refs, will be ready to administer "substantial sanctions" against the Spurs during the playoffs.
That's just normal
Yep... where's the substantial sanctions for Lebron James... he didn't meet his 10 dunk, 4 gatorade cameo, 2 Nike poses, 1 McDonalds bite quota per game. Welcome to the NBA where putting a compe ive team together isn't enough; you have to have enough "stars" at the game too or get fined.
When Stern said it was going to be SUBSTANTIAL sactions then you know it has to be picks and fines to.
Stern
substantial sanctions
Pop said postgame he didn't know about David Stern's "substantial sanctions" statement.
Suspending Pop or a fine would not be substantial. Draft picks would be going too far.
I could see suspending the players as in " if they were so tired, they can stay home for a couple of weeks and get some rest". That would really penalize the team.
lol stern
Stern seems to be missing the point of the NBA: it's a sport. Maybe he should be promoting the love of watching the game, no matter who is on the court. What happened tonight was a great game, probably a lot better than people thought. What pop did was something I was hoping he would do in the first place because Saturday is going to be TOUGH. Props to pop and the Spurs supporting cast, games like this is how we are going to get deep again like last year. We may have lost but I guarantee a couple more "no big three" games are gonna help. 2014 can't get here any sooner.
No way he suspends any players. Union would fight that hard, into the courts if necessary.
Stern.
In the ass.
With a running chainsaw.
^ this
Stern can't touch the players. This is all on Pop, come what may.
