But we also know he wasn't happy with the results. I remember his quote well, and it was VERY close to this, if not this exactly:
"We're still drowning, it's just that we're only drowning in 3ft of water instead of 8."
I don't remember the numbers, but I'm positive I got the intended message right.
EDIT: Found it. This isn't the quote I remember, but a similar one from a different interview.
[b]Did you and some of the other big-name owners fail with the new CBA?:[/b]
"We certainly didn't achieve all we needed to achieve. I've said it multiple times that in the old CBA, financially, teams were drowning in 10 feet of water, now we're drowning in two feet of water. It'll be interesting. Obviously the Nets just went out and spent a boatload of money. It'll be interesting to see if that works for them or against them."
