Not worth revisiting. If Stern were still in the league he would make sure Lakers got top 3 pick last season so people stop talking about it.
I think Stern manipulated certain things. Just MHO. I am thrilled he is gone and the game has a level playing field (besides PEDS)

Not true. One the poster you responded to is incorrect because Gasol was traded to the Rockets, second the Pelicans getting Anthony Davis was one of the most blatant rigs I've seen in professional sports. If the NBA wanted the Hornets to have the number 1 pick they'd get it no matter who was on their roster. It's a shame no one has the balls to call out David Stern on the obvious setup

That was Stern's way of apologizing to the Pelician fanbase and also wiping clean the roster salaries while giving the next owner a franchise changing player. We all know what really happened there smh

mind blown
Bill Simmons opened his show with this. Basically everything changed and possibly lead to a Cavs v Lakers Finals

It all happens for a reason they'll draft and sign some decent players this off season.
No point whinging over it we've just gotta hope for a brighter future!
