2013-2014 NBA Thread - IND @ WAS and OKC @ LAC on ESPN

[tomdiginson]

Whole bunch of nothing.

 

[hsalem]

Damn, Silver looks nervous as hell

He was planning on this being such a happy event, and then bang sterling and then bang grizz owner dies

 

[nelson999]

That Vince shot was crazy. With the exception of game 2 of the LAC GSW series, every west game has been insane

 

[captainjackson]

so we need a press conference for silver to say he's not ready to do anything to sterling? lol

silver looks and sounds unsure of everything he's saying too, should have never scheduled this.

 

[Bert.]

Whole bunch of nothing.

pretty much, i knew they gotta investigate. i think worst that happens is he get suspended and cant enter any nba arenas for awhile and maybe a fine.

Adam Silver: "Ay hold up this Memphis barbecue is phenomenal, give me some time to finish these ribs."

So that's why he was a half an hour late

 

[100027]

Well this is horrible so far.

I know the commissioner is a lawyer, but aren't you supposed to be a leader too?

 

[Bert.]

so we need a press conference for silver to say he's not ready to do anything to sterling? lol

i mean the head of the NBA has to release a statement to the media regardless.

Real punishment should be to force him to attend games and feel the wrath of the fans

 

[sea manup]

this guy could give james harden lessons on side stepping

 

[kevi]

dude is shook

 

[iheartboost]

"Mayor Kevin Johnson is now evolved in this..."

 

[franco23x]

dude is shook

Can't blame him.

The biggest thing that he has to deal with.

 

[japanair21]

Donald Sterling has agreed to not show up to tomorrows Playoff game.

I hope I never see his face at a basketball game ever again.

The NBA is a global game. This kind of bigotry should not be tolerated. We just watched a game between the Spurs and Mavericks, two of the most diverse teams in the NBA. French, German, Brazilian, Australian, Canadian, American, Argentinian, Spanish, Italian, Israeli, Haitian.

White, black, brown, yellow, it doesn't matter. Play the game.

"Mayor Kevin Johnson is now evolved in this..."

what is he turning into?

 

[100027]

"Understanding the context in which it was recorded"

...wow

 

[Bert.]

"Mayor Kevin Johnson is now evolved in this..."

what is he turning into?

i think hes part of the union, no idea why they are talking about him tho

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Adam Silver can't speak to past decisions that were made?? HE WAS THE DEPUTY COMMISSIONER.

 

[hsalem]

Hope they do another pressed in a few days

 

[Arthur Shelby]

@ that press conference

There's no director of the NBPA

KJ is in charge of the search committee.

Since there is no director, they are sort of putting him in charge of overseeing this situation in the meantime.

 

[blastercombo]

Easier said than done but nobody should attend these clipper games. Return the tickets lol


This dude is an idiot and his wife one too

 

[Arthur Shelby]

 

[ballinsam23]

"Understanding the context in which it was recorded"

...wow

Yea this got my attention too. His tone made it seem as if not much will be done like stated earlier.

 

[Peep Game]

I only caught a little of that presser, but he sounded like an 8th grader giving his 30 page Sparknotes recap of a 700 page book. Not a single thing was said.
