Knicks · Blame David Sterns! more than Dolan for few things wrong with Knicks & the NBA ways of keeping league afloat (page 1)

Yep

The wait for the big NBA Appeal file vs Knicks winning the 'Early Larry Bird Rights' decision.
This nonsense all led by Big Chief 'Blow-air' David Sterns the real villian vs Knicks as much as Dolan, moreso than our lame owner. Since ever time good can happen with Knicks David Sterns name is mentioned on the negatives for Knicks.

ONGOINGs perspective for Jeremy Lin/ Noval NBA Appeals:
http://espn.go.com/blog/new-york/knicks/...

Now you all tell me eh ? which team can have 3 players on same squad in the youth of their years
and each guy being a #1 draft pick (Lebron), #4 draft pick (Bosh) and finally another #5 draft pick (Wade)
Answer is: Miami Heat.

And ya know what ? Pat Riley somehow will still have bit mo $$$ to spend this summer.
All of a sudden Pat Riley is Knicks killa again even more than Lebron. David Sterns of course loves it !
LAKERs Part 2 in South Beach.

Dolan or not if any past or present NYK GM ever got Knicks few high draft picks in trades, Mr Sterns would find
some way to mess around with that too!

Whether its suspensions for early Knicks Ewing teams & the Riley Heat finally getting benefit of beating 1 of those
Knicks teams that year, again Mr Sterns and his nba law.

You think with Miami Heat winning finally a title, we can talk about LBJ for 1 week & regardless of I could care
less for Lebron he's earned his NBA title stripes this season, cutting the OKC throats and very very good Thunder team
in NBA finals.

You'd think like how the world & David Sterns talked about Michael Jordan, loved MJ rising his status and made David Sterns
look great, while whipping Knicks each time MJ was here, only MJ stopped NY from 1 or 2 Pat Ewing rings.

You'd think Mr. Sterns having the Fabolous Tim Duncan Mr 'No' Personality #1 and his coach Greg Popo Mr 'No'
Personality #2 winning 5 NBA rings to keep Sterns interested in his NBA kingdom and pro hoops successes.

You'd think David Sterns having a fill of Shaq, Kobe & Phil Jackson again winning the 3-peat 3 times NBA titles would
have Sterns glad there was Kobe and Jordan comparisions on the horizon then & now.

You'd think also Mr Sterns would better things to do with his time with NBA draft this week on his agenda, few bright
new rookies joining league & even the WNBA started and gaining excitement each season.

You'd also believe Mr Sterns rather than let this Knick 'Win' for the players side go and everyone can enjoy the summer
BUT no no no no, Not so fast! Not yet for our Knickerbockers.

You mean to tell me this Man David Sterns wants NBA appeal filed for likes of J.Lin and S.Novac ? What are they allstars ?
Don't get it ? ? ? You'd think Knicks was robbing someone for trying to hold onto their own players whom aren't stars.

Once Again David Sterns prove's he's a bigger A_ _hole than any knick foes, than it's owner, than any past or current
player that tried to help Knicks win (e.g. for Melo haters), ESPN Haters and current analyst haters such as Charles Barkley.

David Sterns needs to go to HELL ! as much as J.Dolan needs to sell team.

I rather take chances on Sterns retiring as better chance for Knicks to do Knick business & improve to compete with elite.

As long as at least one of them guys are around the NY Knicks will have more to contend with than getting as good as HEAT
or THUNDER teams of the NBA!

Andrew bought this up last week:

Replace Stern with "Owners".

He works for the owners. The owners are very happy OKC was in finals and drew great ratings!

Thats what matters.

Don't forget Billips and Hickson are a big part of the arbitration.

If we are blaming Stern for losing our shot at a championship then there is some things wrong.

Don't forget, BOsh, Wade and Lebron all took pay cuts where Amare and Melo did not.

It seems like you see and hear from Stern more than from any other major sports commissioner. He generally is smug and arrogant. He hasn't done the Knicks any favors and personally I have been anti-Stern since the playoffs suspensions against Miami. I personally think he should be held accountable for his recent episode on the Rome show as he sees fit to fine players for using words that he finds offensive. Personally, I am very tired of his smartest guy in the room routine. I was glad to see a different side of him when I watched Magic's Announcement but that was a long time ago. I think it is time for him to move on or at least for him to be more in the background. This years draft crowd could be really rough on him. He has had a bad year.

What major sport commish is beloved in the last 20 years?

Stern has major personality defects. Personally I thought Stern going back after Rome was kind of cool. Stern is a dick, but so is Rome. Two dicks going at it.

MOst Commish's are way to stiff. Stern don't care as his juice card is full.

The owners don't want the knicks, clips or Warriors to have The bird rights on the players. Stern works for the owners.

I didn't see Rome as being antagonistic in that situation but he has that rep. However, if it is ok to respond to someone being a dick on a radio, why isn't ok to respond to a prick on twitter. Seeems to me there is a double standard there.

I thought Rome kept after the "Conspiracy" issue and while Rome has no history of domestic violence, Stern was trying to equate Rome line of question as fictional. Stern should not stoop down to Rome's level as his attempt to outsmart Rome failed.

Amare used as word that you can't used anymore.

The Rome thing was extremely unprofessional.The Commissioner of the NBA should not be acting in that manner. That being said I hate Jim Rome,He is a blowhard.I love when these AHole Sports writers get it thrown back in their face for acting like Jack asses. Skip Bayless is the worst . He is the main reason I dont want ESPN anymore unless a game is on.
I dont get why the NBA is making such a big deal over players nobody cared about 6 months ago. Now that they r good everyone is up in arms its BS. By trying to create competitive balance all they are creating is an easy path for the Heat to win every year.

F*ck David Stern I will never forget the 1997 playoffs vs the Heat when he suspended half the Knicks for leaving the bench when PJ Brown flipped Charlie Ward, including Patrick Ewing even though he did not join in the fight he just took a couple of steps onto the court to see what happened.
