Speaking to USA Today Sports by telephone, David Stern addressed the Dwight Howard saga that has plagued the league the entire off season. Stern even suggested that Howard's own agent is the "source" behind all of the leaked information.
"It's very unique, especially if it's driven by a quote source that happens to be Dwight's agent," Stern said" 'A source in the meeting. Oh, OK, who might that be?.....To me, it is the soap opera our fans turn in for - the drama on the court and the drama off the court," Stern said. "When we cease to have a story popping up, we probably won't exist.....I think what it is, is that that's the way we are. That's the way it has been in baseball and the NFL and hockey and basketball. And frankly, it engages our fans, it engages our reporters, it engages our bloggers. It makes people happy, mad, sad. It's just the life in sports."
