Stupid stupid Stern

Wednesday, February 13, 2008

David Stern is as out of touch with NBA fans as President Bush is with the American people I think. Stern is apparently going to annouce this weekend that he has a plan to create 5 regular NBA franchises in Europe over the next 10 years. Now normally I would say go for it except for one glaring thing, the Eastern Conference. Stern needs to pull his head back into the U.S. market and try and figure out why and how to fix the pathetically weaker Eastern Conference. In the East, the last 3 playoff seeds have LOSING records, as opposed to a 10 team (all with winning records) battle royale for all 8 playoff spots in the West. How can he boast the NBA being a successful league when half of it is playing at the D-League level??
