That was pretty powerful, coming from De Smith. It won't change anything, but powerful none-the-less. He has no dog in the coach's fight. Nor should he care about the fans. But he flat out said it anyway.

Smith has a stake in this called public sentiment. The only reason CBA negotiations play out in the press is because public opinion plays a factor. If he can make the league look evil then they are less likely to get public sympathy in the future. I'm not saying he's lying, just that it's in his interest to weaken the public standing of the commissioner.
