Damn, RIP to a great commissioner. Silver has been such a lousy replacement.

I didn't like Stern... But may he RIP.
David Stern had balls.....not like the current guy
POS commissioner.
Did they bury him in his Lakers underwear?
how many ships did this asshole cost the spurs? still the best commish and better than our current sucker
I'm not one to make fun of a dead person or whatever, and David Stern is no exception, but agreed, POS commissioner and Adam Silver is no different. They ran/run the NBA all wrong. You guys know what I'm talking about. ESP ingN is also a huge blame for this. It's essentially why the NBA does what it does. We were very fortunate to win the les we did.

In a Lakers coffin.
RIP
he cost Duncan 3-5 rings but without him SA may not have a team at all
Hated him as a commissioner, corrupt as , but he was a legend. RIP.
Tldr
All the good ones are dying off... sadly. RIP
Would be his wishes.
RIP
Really? Which years?
Dang, that’s crazy! He allowed stars like Magic, Bird, MJ, etc. to build the NBA up. Always made good decisions for the league based on the talent at hand, like Yao Ming. RIP, say whatever you want but I fell in love with the NBA under his watch.
He was a great commissioner and didn't put up with the Load Management bull . It's out of hand today and the Spurs were guilty of flaunting it in the league's face and pissing off fans. No bigger asswhip than sitting down to watch a Spurs vs Miami game and finding out your team pretty much has no shot to win. Stern handled it appropriately by fining the Spurs $250K for thinking they were bigger than the league.

Like so many things, you don't know what you have until you don't have it.
RIP.
Great professional sports league commissioner. He took a terrible product and converted it the #1 sports league in the world. NFL is just american, European soccer leagues are irrelevant in the US, NBA is huge across the globe.
RIP
This. His globalization of basketball not only broadened the talent but created additional revenue stream to help the league grow to what it is today. He was definitely not a player favorite, but Silver has gone to the extreme of player side and it’s damaged the league reputation in the US.
It hurts the product, but Im pretty sure Vegas was definitely not happy about how it messes with the lines and let Stern know about it.
Is that why pop is alive and his wife dead
