The only reason I feel him resting the 4 players was a bad call, was for the Spurs fans who live in Florida. They missed out on a chance to see their team at full strength. I could care less about Stern and any fans from other teams.

Aside from that, I have no issues with him doing this. Maybe if the NBA wouldnt make such silly scheduling and travel decisions, things like this wouldnt happen.

If we guard Ray Allen in the final 30 seconds, we win that game and then imagine how irate the basketball Nazi would have been. He hates the Spurs.....we are a dominant small market team, when Stern wants none.

Stern is a fool. Spurs basketball is one of the best thing in the league and has been for a long time, but instead of marketing it (selfless, team basketball with good character, discipline, sharing, and of course winning).....he would rather sell individuals, flash instead of substance, poor fundamentals, etc.

Memphis should have never had the opportunity to grab the air ball and run the fast break, which eventually led to the turnover that gave the ball right back to the Spurs. Instead, it should have been Memphis ball to inbounds, either under their basket or call a TO and advance the ball. The refs screwed that call up and so did Hollins for not paying attention to the situation.

I am happy with the win, any win over a divisional opponent is a great win. However, this one was super sweet because it felt like we gave David Stern a nice middle finger.

GO SPURS GO

Yeah they blew that call but that goes with being a Grizz fan. We don't get calls and we know it.
