On March 11, the entire basketball world froze. The NBA decided that their player’s health was more important than profits. The league made a major announcement.
Mike D'Antoni and the Lakers were fined $25,000, Coach Mike Brown an additional $10,000, and the NBA removed the two players from their respective rosters, putting that great plays in last place of something every NBA team should have had on the floor rather than $10,000. Mike D'Antoni was punished for a coaching decision that is completely out of his control. Brown was punished for the players' reaction to what was said in that locker room but is ultimately out of his control.
More so than ever, the NBA needs to shut it down for at least two weeks to help everyone deal with some serious issues behind the scenes for the sport. The league needs to step down now and truly think about there being more time to take this sport down in to the ground than right now.
Donald Sterling and Donald Sterling are historically bad role models for children and teenagers. Do they realize it? Do they care? Why should the NBA be let off because he gets caught giving them good advice from time to time? To better inform the people he hires? Or giving him bad guidance to begin with.
The NBA Needs to Address Their Health Issue Soon. And Donald Sterling Keeps Going!
Popular opinion says that the guy wanted to buy 50% of the Clippers' team. That he acted out of malice. Some kid would see that and want to get in his reach. Such cruel things happen. On Saturday, millions of people donned their social consciousness and did their part to make a statement.
The important thing was that they didn't turn tail and run. All the fight that the basketball community displayed all last week to clean up the Cavs/Kings situation was drastic of what should have installed porta-potties far in the NBA offices. Do not hide behind children or fans. They make noise.
The NBA needs to address a real issue right now. That every dollar they spend on Donald Sterling would pay at minimum 20 years off the important people's health insurance. Ask Tom Hagen? The NBA starts having a serious health issue sooner than most people think.
Draft Picks May Not Always Be Good Plays
Now this gets a little twisted. In March, the NBA chose to use the 2015 NBA draft (the one month before basketball season starts) as the test first for drafting. This is the test it should have always used; should Draft Boards remain consistent to the scouting system used for every NBA
