 We're not going to be crazy. We just want our players to dress up, |
| We've got an extraordinary number of good cops at the NBA. |
| We've got teams that have been through stretches of difficulty. As fast as you can spell Clippers. |
| We've had a very good year because people are talking about the game. They're complaining about the game, they're praising the game, they think it's good, they think it's bad, but it's about the game. Any time it's about the game it's fine from my perspective. |
| Well, the job description has changed. |
| What he said was he had a conversation with a referee. I found that unacceptable and (also) his declining to identify him. ... He accepted the fine and acknowledged the statement that he got a call from an NBA referee was, shall I say in error, inaccurate. That makes it over. |
| What we came up with is a dress code that even Mark Cuban could comply with - if he wanted to. |
| What we're doing here is largely symbolic. But it tells everyone that we've got to help. We've got to do better. |
| What went through my mind when it was the second time is that our players have to be more careful because they are inviting targets in places where they might or might not want to be. It's going to be our job to remind them [of the dangers]. It's something that we clearly have to be concerned about. But really, less for the image and more for the safety. |
| Yes, there will be an NBA team here. |
| You're going to see enormously strong products like the Olympics and Monday Night Football remain strong network programming, and you are going to see programming that controls audiences on a Sunday or Saturday afternoon ... [that will] still be attractive to a certain degree to the over-the-air networks, ... But then [for other sports programming] you are going to see a migration to cable. |
| [Abdul-Jabbar is not the only former NBA player looking -- without success -- to get back in the game.] There are numerous Hall of Fame players who would like an opportunity to work in the NBA, ... and hundreds more who are not in the Hall of Fame. We field calls, meet with many of them and sometimes even hire them in our coaching camps to expose them to teams. In the end, the marketplace takes care of itself. |
| [Mohamed's defense attorney David Stern asked the jury not to make his client a martyr.] Send him to jail and he'll be forgotten, ... Kill him and you guarantee him immortality. |
| [The commissioner stopped short of saying the incident set the league back to the 1970s, when its image was of drugs and militants.] I didn't see that at all, ... In fact, in a funny kind of way, business was OK. ... Dress codes are a separate issue, a lot less important, but apparently more important to a lot of people than we would have thought. |
| [Yes, Bryant is innocent until proven guilty. And until he is convicted of a crime he has every right to earn a living. NBA commissioner David Stern said the right thing (publicly) when asked recently by a newspaper reporter whether Bryant should play as he awaits (along with the rest of us) the outcome of the criminal case against him:] Absolutely. ... could be [his] choice but [he] shouldn't be forced to. |
