I began to take on the life of being an interviewer even though i have a day job of running a private equity firm. How do you define leadership . What is it that makes somebody tick . You have been the commissioner since 2014, and you had spent 22 years at the nba offices before that. Before that, you were a graduate of the two best schools to go to in combination Duke University and the university of chicago law school, right . Happened to go to as well. David right. You cannot do any better than that. Lets start with the nba today and how it is doing. Honestly, since you have been commissioner, revenues are up. Ticket sales are up. The owners value of their teams is up by about three times. So are you adequately paid for the job youre doing, do you think . Today, the nba seems to be at its peak. Right now, it is very popular all over the world. Why do you think it is that nba basketball is so p
Reporter liam cardinal says he wasnt surprised his 80year old father was being a good samaritan, helping a stranger. He saw a young man with a bicycle that had a flat tire and my father, being the way he is, he was out walking the dog and he said, he probably said hey young man, can i help you with that flat tire . Last friday night in this palo alto neighborhood at linden and seneca he grabbed a light poem from his home of 48 years. When he returned, unbeknownst to him, the young man was armed with a knife and began violently stabbing him. Its to my understanding it was multiple, multiple stab wounds to the neck and the face. Reporter neighbors who witnessed the assault told his wife and immediately called 911. It was a random, violent attack against an elderly male for no apparent reason.

Billion on amazon during the lockdown. The stock is up 169 per share. Facebook, another pandemic winner. 2. 4 billion people used facebook or one of its apps every day. That is global clout. The stock is up 16. Now, google, that is the exception to the stock price rally. They reported a firstever decline in quarterly revenue with the economy lockdown, advertisers slowed their spending. That stock is down 16 bucks. Overall, stocks are going up this morning. I see green for the dow, green for the s p and especially a lot of green for the nasdaq, up 111 points. No deal on stimulus. Democrats and republicans negotiated last night. Neither side emerged optimistic. Politico reports that offers were exchanged. The white house wants a fourmonth extension of jobless benefits.

Health conditions must return by happy to be back . Yeah. Very nice. November. I have to make a choice better than at home. Better than at home. Between do i risk getting sick so thats good. Paycheck. In surveys obtained by cbs what might be interesting as well is 120 see what our office news, hundreds of staffers voiced their objections, one used to look like. A lot of people in a small writing, im quite frankly embarrassed to work at a company space. Not much privacy and difficult to make phone calls. Are you going to keep that old that values employee safety so little. And this there will be People Office or is it a museum piece, who die because of epics the way things used to be in the 20th century . I think it will be a museum insistence on lurk to campus. Rushed, shameful, disappointing, wildly peace. Irresponsible and a disaster.
