Stern Warning

NBA commissioner David Stern runs his league like Vince McMahon rules the world of wrestling. The similarities are staggering (feasting on boos and embracing the role of villain), and a role reversal is the only way to prove it. Imagine if you will, the commissioner of the National Basketball Association on draft night walking out to Vince McMahon's theme song, "No Chance in Hell".

The Sports Guy, Bill Simmons, from ESPN will back me up on this. Here is a quote from his 2011 NBA Draft Day Diary article:
"Stern waves as he's getting booed. 'He loves the hate!' Jacoby says. 'It fuels the fire for him!' Stern and Vince McMahon could switch jobs for a year pretty seamlessly. At the very least, Stern should have his own entrance music for the beginning of the draft. I've been saying this for years."

It just feels right...
