So they are making the crab dribble legal, and not fining Lebron too?
Incase you guys missed it, earlier this season, shortly after the famous lobster dance incident, the league released a memo explaining how that would change the refereeing decision of the traveling rule, a new interpretation of the traveling rule that-gasp you guessed it- would make the crab dribble legal.
Shaq and Dwayne Wade got fined for skipping mandatory press conferences, however David Stern personally spoke to Lebron, and now Lebron isn't getting fined. Yes it's only 20,000 out of the 100,000,000 Lebron makes a year, but it's the principal of the whole thing.
Maybe I am imagining it, but does it seem to everyone else that David Stern is pandering to Lebron way too much, by not only changing the very rules of the game for him, but also breaking precedent in Lebron's favor?? But maybe I'm imagining it.

what are you talking about? Where is the conspiracy? NBA is not hiding these things. It is public knowledge released by the league they are changing the traveling rule for the start of next year, and it is public knowledge they arent fining lebron when they have fined other superstar players (wade, shaq) for the same thing

You shouldn't care about things like that. Yes Lebron is being babysitted by Stern, but it's not such a big deal, Lebron isn't Michael Jordan, Lebron is overrated, and I can see Lebron never winning a ring, altho I think he most likely will, it's a possibility that he won't.

Why is that a bannable offence? Since when is calling someone a jew offensive? jew means jewish and that is what Stern is, just pointing out the truth, and if being a jew is offensive then that is not my problem but the jews own reputation.

Because it's singling out their ethnicity and turning it into an insult. "Lazy ass Mexican" is more offensive than "lazy ass dude" or something because it implies that being Mexican has something to do with being lazy.

I did not write that sentence, I just added one word to it, specifying the person with a fact. You don't know if I wanted to single him out or just specify him, that is just what you guess.

I don't know how they do it in Estonia....but, here in Seattle, that's called being a smartass and hiding behind your actions. You changed what he said to Jew whore, implying that Jewish people will do anything for money.....

Pulling a Lebron now? "I did not write that sentence, I just added one word to it". Back pedaling much? Trying to blame your racist insecurities on me? Not only a racist but a coward.
