Buss Stopped

I hesitate to even make light of this because he obviously has a problem. NBA Commissioner David Stern fined L.A. Lakers owner Jerry Buss, the man who has been fueling the Kobe-watch, $25,000 and suspended for 2 games after a misdemeanor drunk-driving conviction over the summer.

First, Jerry Buss is 74 years old. That's all I'll say about that.

Second, what is a 2-game suspension and $25,000 going to do? If anything, he's probably looking forward to having an excuse to not go to a game. And $25,000 is a drop in the bucket for this guy. If Stern really wanted to penalize him, then he would have fined him more and dropped that suspension stuff.

I can't wait to see what Stern comes up with after Zeke, James Dolan and the Knicks lose their appeal!
