    Think about it, Stern has put him in a horrible position with his team, how do you go back to those players and have them respect you?

    I would not blame him quitting and filing suit against the NBA.

    I can't blame him. His entire plan may have just gotten screwed.

    I don't blame him at all. Exactly what I would do, in his position. Proud of you, Daryl.

    Also can't remember a single sports decision that caused multiple front office execs to seriously consider quitting their jobs. Amazing

    He said something along the lines of "this is a BIG deal, we have 2 front office execs, Demps and Morey, who are thinking about quitting because of this"

    Great. Be proud. Team you root for suffers, but at least you have your pride.

    He can't personally sue the NBA because a trade was blocked, DaDa :)

    You need better attorneys! ;)

    I would be, the NBA just dropped he and the team into a deep hole. Has to be incredibly frustrating.
