stern said he was just tryin to inforce his rule of leaving the bench against the spurs and suns. that if he didnt enforce it other people would want to get away with it. now with lebron elbowing one of the pistons why not suspend him. he enforced that rule on kobe twice this season but why not lebron. just like he said be4 if you're gonna enforce the rule on one you gotta enforce it on everyone. also going back to the duncan issue wit crawford the ref be4 the playoffs started and ending up where stern punished the ref. all i know is if that was rasheed wallace acting that way stern wouldnt do nothing to the ref.
now with the spurs they had a problem with fisher when he hit that .4 shot over them a couple of years ago and they wouldnt let that go for months over the summer, i know because i live in san antonio. but yet when a call goes their way with the suspensions they dont say a word. i have always thought that the spurs were whinners except when calls go their way.

The reasons he stated for enforcing the rule are BS. In 1998, there was a brawl between the Knicks and the Kings. Several members of the Kings left the bench, rushing to the scene and they didn't get suspended. He made an exception to the rule because he said they were trying to be peacemakers. If he can allow for circumstances to dictate whether the suspension should apply or not in that case, he could have allowed in the Suns' case. But that's not what he said. He said 'a rule is a rule' right? His is nothing but a piece of ****. I'm not saying the Suns players didn't break the rule, but it's pretty obvious Stern has his favorites, and that is why people are mad. There are photos all over the place that clearly show Diaw and STAT going toward Nash while he was still on the ground. Diaw was already standing, looking right at Nash as Nash was still flying into it. So it's pretty obvious they were just trying to make sure he was OK. Now if he could determine intent in the Kings' case, why couldn't he determine it in the Suns' case this year? He is a hipocrite.

-Tim duncan hits a runner to put the spurs up by 1..did they win..no..everyone looks at the clock with .4 seconds remaining thinking the game is over
-inbound to derrick fisher with a turnaround "J" to win the game.
-Fishy runs out into the locker room while timmy and the spurs look down with tears
basically SPURS SUCK, SUCKA

If you would learn to write coherently, you might be taken seriously, if you had a point. Get it?
What was your question again?
