People were talking about the question. Other than the typical finals chatter it probably was the question most people wanted asked above all else and I'm glad someone had the ball's to ask it.
Me personally do I think the lottery or anything in the NBA is rigged? No.
But out of the 4 major sports if it ever came out one of them wasn't totally on the up and up and the league office influenced some things the NBA far and away would be my first choice.
Back to the original topic can't beleive I didn't mention liking SVP. Love him.

It was the way the question was laid out. There was no way of answering it. Either Stern had to lie or he had to tell the truth and Rome would have a quote he could take out of context.
That was all Stern was saying. If Rome had asked, "Have you fixed the draft?" Stern could answer no and move on. Instead Rome went with the loaded question.
