    but Stern was not the one making the calls for Donaghy (maybe he was :rolleyes:)

    but he pulled the trigger on this Pau(l) thing.

    I'm not that old, so I have to ask, what happened in 85 with Ewing?

    You forgot banning Lewis Lloyd and Mitchell Wiggins cause apparently it was only the Rockets (who made the NBA Finals in 86) who do drugs in the NBA

    Also gifting the Mavs the second round against our mighty Rockets not too long ago.

    I hope the man goes down hard in controversy.

    Gotta go with the Kings thing. It affected a ton of fates for some one-time income.
