    GM/Commissioner for a day.

    Let's say for whatever obscure nonsensical reason the GM of your team suddenly quits. While you're at home eating Cheetos and playing XBOX you get a call from your team owner (how the hell does he have your number?) asking you to be the new GM with full control over roster and staff. What moves do you make for your team?

    Same scenario for Commissioner but David Stern gets caught in a sex scandal with Betty White. You are now NBA Commissioner (yay!). What rules do you change, what do you do about officials, technicals and so on?

    Bulls GM -

    Not much. I'd quietly but aggressively pursue Dwight. Second see what two guards open up on the trade market.

    NBA Commissioner -

    Have the Lakers release MWP's contract. Sign him immediately as deputy commissioner and watch the chaos unfold.

      GM- I'd fire D'antoni.

      Commish- I'd let players show some emotion on the court.

        Commish:

        - Cut the season to 55 games

        - Cut out 2-4 playoff teams, Make Divisions games meaningful, and make a sort of Wild Card for the rest of the teams.

        - Contract 2- 4 teams.

        - Any time an offense player aggressively initiates contact with a defensive player, make it a no call.

              Can't even begin to list, I don't know where to start.

              I'd issue an executive mandate to overturn the superstar system. This includes on--and off--the court.

                  Cut Lucas and Scalabrine immediately.

                  Do anything to get Dwight Howard.

                  Fine Kobe anytime he sticks his tongue out

                  Ban anyone for life for flopping more than once, in their career.

                          Yeaaaaaa, i know a lot of people like him, but I can't stand it. Can't give any particular reason why, but it's like a side show act when he comes in.

                            Yeah, I understand that but the guy is a good bench guy plus he has a solid hoops IQ. He's more of a coach player than a player coach.

                              GM- Trade Oakfor, Ariza, and Jack for draft picks and/or young prospects
                              -Keep Kaman and Landry expiring contracts and let them expire.
                              -I'd look to build the team in this upcoming draft.

                              Commish- Reduce the season to 56 games
                              - Reduce the number of teams in the playoffs 2 each conference
                              - Reduce the number of playoffs games to the best of 3
                              - Get rid of individual tv deals
                              - Fine and/or suspend for flopping
                              - Allow hand checking
                              - Fouls would be called on whoever creates the contact.
                              You looking at the Chair MAN!

                              Number may not tell the whole story ,but they never lie either.
