Don't mess with David Stern

TNT decided to interview David Stern during the second quarter of the Bulls/Heat game (roughly ten minutes before this posting). The highlights:

- Stern’s praise of Red Auerbach.

- The commish’s enthusiasm for the stars of the game. Interestingly he’s not a big fan of last names.

- Finally Stern was asked about the new ball. First he played it coy and said, “What ball?” But then he went for the kill. With the Heat trailing 34-21 Stern said with a hint of mockery, “The ball seems to be slipping out of the Heat’s hands and not the Bulls.” Take that Shaq and Wade.

Important point: This Bulls team might do dirty things to the Celtics. I don’t want to think about it.
