NBA Commissioner David Stern will retire in February 2014, 30 years after he took charge of the league. He will be replaced by Deputy Commissioner Adam Silver.
I will miss one thing: Jeff Van Gundy ranting about floppers during national telecasts. I guess we can't have it all.
It's time for the league's owners to voice their concerns and let Bettman know that he does not have the authority to ruin the NHL. The fans need to get louder and voice their concerns as well. The time is now, or the season will be gone before you know it.
David Stern may push for a change in the future that would turn the Olympics into a competition for players who are 23 years old or under, keeping older players from getting hurt and might even make the games a bit more competitive.
Overpowering and dominant in a way not seen since the 1992 Dream Team, the Americans are now two wins from a second straight Olympic gold medal. Argentina awaits.
CBS Sports Network analyst and former first-round pick Wally Szczerbiak joined CBS Local Sports to give perspective as to what the prospects are going through on the biggest night of their basketball lives.
Williams says all he can do today, and for the rest of his life, is apologize for his wrongs and crimes and start to move ahead, grateful for a second chance, with God on his side.
David Stern's recent appearance on Jim Rome's radio show made headlines because the commissioner didn't like the fact that Rome had the nerve to ask him about the draft lottery.
"Was the fix in for the lottery?" Jim Rome asked during a contentious radio interview Wednesday. After some debate over the legitimacy of the question, Stern said: "Have you stopped beating your wife yet?"
Talk about a big winner. In addition to landing the top overall selection that will wind up being Kentucky big man Anthony Davis, the Hornets also have the tenth overall pick.
I don't care how "competitive" you are, how "passionate" you are or "what bad timing" it was. Nice try, but blaming that elbow on "two powerhouses colliding" is a lame excuse.
John Calipari seems to wear the widest black hat of any college coach in recent memory. And I'm not sure why.
Newark Mayor Cory Booker tweeted the news last week. On Wednesday, the NBA made it official.
Not Magic and Bird, not Kobe or LeBron. Not even Michael Jordan. Nobody can match the buzz that Jeremy Lin has created in such a short amount of time.
Presumably, someone with a brain got to the commissioner and Lin was named to play in the Rising Stars Game.
Charles Barkley praised the addition, saying it was "really stupid the NBA denied him in the beginning."
Why wait until next year? It's not too late this year. Jeremy Lin should be an All-Star. Now. Certainly, somehow, David Stern can get this done. Any player drops out of the East squad, put Lin in. If no player drops out, add him to the roster.
NBA Commissioner David Stern opened his lockout-delayed season by hearing boos from fans.
Off of the lockout, nearly everyone craved a return to normalcy in the NBA. Instead, they got the chaos surrounding the Chris Paul trade which included rescinded trades, threatened lawsuits, and commissioner David Stern once again looking like the bad guy.
Stern saw competitive balance. He saw the Clippers become more competitive and the Hornets become more balanced.
Paul has finally landed -- not with the Knicks or Lakers, but with the Los Angeles Clippers.
It seems almost everyone has given their take on last week's rejected trade that would've sent Chris Paul to the Lakers. Add Deron Williams to the list.
Despite his protestations otherwise, Stern's decision to veto the first Chris Paul trade to the Los Angeles Lakers was as much about image as his decision six years ago to outlaw baggy pants and hats worn sideways.
Chris Paul wanted a trade to the Knicks. Instead, the Hornets worked out a three-team deal with LA and Houston -- or so they thought.
