If Rome had asked, "Have you stopped fixing the lottery?" or "Have you continued to fix the lottery?" then yes, Rome would be guilty of a loaded question. But Rome simply asked if Stern had fixed the lottery. That's not a loaded question.
And David Stern, as a lawyer, should have known that. He probably did, which is why he resorted to red herring and straw man tactics. Either way, his response was inappropriate to his profession, his position, and the situation.
