Does this mean players will be wearing chains and coogi sweaters on the bench again?

Good. There's no need to state all of the reasons why I don't like him so I'll leave you with this gif.

The return of business casual?

Re: Breaking: David Stern To Retire

I feel about Stern the way I feel about Shaq. They're usually a dbag and not very likable but they have their moments when they're hilarious and/or bad ***.

He did a decent job, but the the past 6 or 7 years, he's so full of himself he should weigh 400 lbs.

It's been time to go.

I give it 2 years from the time Silver takes over before people start asking for him to be gone.

I wouldn't be so quick to applaud this.

Stern has been one of the biggest opponents to advertisements on NBA jerseys. The new guy might not care.

Re: Breaking: David Stern To Retire

Stern has done a good job with making NBA players the most marketable athletes, and has been a pretty good commissioner for the most part. But I won't be sad to see him go.

2 years... I give him until the draft lottery in 2014 when people complain the draft is fixed.

In my world, Bill Walton would be named NBA commissioner and the universe would be restored to its natural balance.

Re: Breaking: David Stern To Retire

Cool. Maybe I'll be interested in giving more of a **** about basketball again when he's gone.

He's firmly entrenched within the group of people who are on the deepest darkest level of hatred I have for anyone.

Re: Breaking: David Stern To Retire

Silver is nothing more than Stern's lackey anyway. I doubt it will make a significant difference.

Re: Breaking: David Stern To Retire

We can all agree... the draft won't be the same without Stern.

Re: Breaking: David Stern To Retire

Great. Can we get Billy Hunter to step down as the players union rep? Also, not sure if Adam Silver is the answer so I'm not all that thrilled about it.

This X1,000,000.

Silver will be a less pompous Stern.

I agree Stern has done some great things for the league in the late 70's.

Although he played a role in saving hoops in my city so I'm not allowed to say anything negative about Pimp Daddy Stern.

I don't care.

Has nothing to do with the game or how it's played.
