I fukking love this. Stern stays clowning the media and making fukk nikkas on this site angry. Some of the shyt I've read in this thread is the height of stupidity. Can any of you tin foil hat wearing fakkits please explain to me how Stern can explain how something isn't fixed? You're openly letting it be known you think its fixed yet expect some response from him that will change your minds. Some of y'all are fukking women.
The lottery is rigged!
The lottery process is run by an outside firm and witnessed by reps from each team as well as members of the media.
The lottery process needs transparency!
ESPN.com - 2002 NBA Draft: NBA out to prove conspiracy theorists wrong
That's one of many articles written by media members detailing every facet of the process. Why would the media, the ones who feed off of these conspiracy stories, lie about the process?
Why didn't Stern just answer the question!?
The first thing he did was answer the question. "Uhhh, you know, I have two answers for that. I'll give you the easy one: no"
Uhhhh...fukk that Jew cac Stern
That's the thing, y'all fall into the same trap the countless media cats Stern has sonned fall into: opening your mouth about shyt without knowing what you're talking about. Entertaining conspiracy theories only helps to give credence to them. No respectable journalist is going to ask that question because there's nothing to it but speculation. There's not a shred of evidence to support the theory. When your job is to inform, you don't go down the route of speculation without evidence to support your claim. Asking that question only sets you up for the ether Rome suffered, just like Colin Cowherd found out with the Chris Paul shyt last year:
David Stern, NBA - ESPN
This is basic journalism. And give me a break acting like Stern was being unprofessional. He broke Rome down with rhetoric and kept his cool the whole time. If you though he was calling Rome a wifebeater that's on you.
