Anyone else get the feeling that Stern had to push for this trade in order to get the attention off of the whole scandal in the sport? It seems no one is looking at it as hard as they were last week now that the Garnett trade went down.

Hopefully the people that matter don't ease up on it.

Yes and no.

It has gotten NBA purists debating on how will the Celts will do next year, but still the gambling scandal still holds over anything that happens in the NBA.

I don't wanna see this happen anytime soon, but only the death of Michael Jordan, Larry Bird, or Magic Johnson would be bigger than the gambling scandal.
