i think they should increase the court height and have the bench below kind of like what they had at the NcAA game earlier this year. players can stand and dont obstruct the view at all. i wonder if most arenas could accomadate this its a simple fix, considering they can do so much with the toyota center when there are concerts.
Biggest garbage fine in the history of the NBA. Well minus Jeff Van Gundys fine for telling the truth.
But this is riskier for the players, especially when they dive into the stands. Just thinking about it gives me the chills...
The people that pay that much money to sit close to the floor aren't even watching the darn game. This is stupid.
suck one david stern i wish the league gets a comish that isnt right becuz Landry doesnt have a big contract to shell out 10,000 bucks so freely.. and wats worse he didnt even get a warning i cant stand shady ass david stern
Stopped reading after that. Seriously, that guy needs to retire. Just look at the Arenas incident. Stern does nothing when he was charged for bringing firearms into the locker room, but suspend him after he jokes about it. It's almost as if he doesn't care if a player breaks a law, but takes it personal when a player challenges his authority. I don't see Lebron getting suspended for going 105MPH at a 65MPH zone. I don't see Stephan Jackson suspended for firing into the air at a nightclub.
This is really ridiculous. Half of basketball is about the energy and raw emotion. Whats next: the crowd can't stand up?? Stern is going overboard with these silly rules. Personally i enjoy seeing a player get into a game. Emotions are not a bad things...you know, considering that we are human and all
