Will the NBA be looking to set up another NBA in China? Not according to David Stern, but he does see some potential.Stern said NBA China is in an “ongoing dialogue” with Chinese authorities about installing 800,000 baskets in villages across this sprawling country. The NBA also hopes to be involved with a Chinese professional league. But Stern balked at comparisons with the NBA’s Development. [link]

Olympic Basketball Needs More Medal Events

truthaboutit posted 8/25/2008 from www.truthaboutit.net

And he was from one of the most athleticially disinterested gene pools in history? Surely worth a gander . . . David Stern seems to think so.

On his blog, he wept about poor officiating, missing players (himself) and 'different' rules leading to Spain's demise. Considering Spain played a much better ...

Here's original footage from TBS Sports covering the 1987 draft. Just how long ago was 1987? Well, I was about to enter the third grade, the NBA had only 23 teams, David Stern still had more pepper than salt in his hair and the draft lasted seven ...
