Dr. Buss did a lot for Stern and the NBA. Except for the aborted CP3 trade, Stern has been good to Dr. Buss too, ergo, no reported hard feelings between the two. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals |

Today's not a good day to watch TV. Currently the final farewell to Det. Jerehiah MacKay is on all local and national channels.
I wonder if Dr Buss's will be given as much attention? _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

As we await the memorial service for Dr. Buss, "Forever in Blue Jeans" plays over the P.A. Very clever selection. AK |

Weird. So Johnny is the oldest in the family, but Dr. Buss gave the power to Jim? _________________ You miss 100 percent of the shots you never take. |

Johnny is oldest but didnt have much interest in being involved with the team, Jim did and he and his dad where very close and was said that he has the same flair with numbers and statistics that his dad did and has been quoted many times saying his dad was his best friend |
