Completely agree with Stern. The players represent a company, and that company pays them millions to work for them. Most owners are white so the race issue is moot and is racist of the black person to suggest otherwise.
I have a dress code and so do most people working....for the time they represent their company on a plane or coming to and leaving the arena they should dress in whatever fashion the company tells them to.
The entire hip hop generation of NBAers have turned a lot of people away from the sport and Stern recognizes that.
