    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Stu Jackson visited Arco Arena on Friday night, with the NBA's senior vice president of basketball operations explaining he was in town for his annual visit.
    That it came the same week the Arco overhead video showed images of Detroit looking like a battered and beaten city during Pistons introductions Tuesday was a coincidence, Jackson said. He said he hasn't viewed the video (and there is no update overall from the NBA on potential fines).

    But Jackson did say the NBA has warned the Kings about players' shorts being a tad too long. Rules stipulate shorts must be at least be two inches above the knee.

    "We try to work with the teams on this," Jackson said. "If they don't comply, we take action."

    The Philadelphia 76ers, for example, were fined $5,000 for excess sag this week. Other teams also have been warned.</div>

    Are you kidding me. What kind of rule is that? We aren't in the years where short shorts are considered cool.

    The shorts rule is a tribute to the all time assists leader.

    Making guys wear short shorts is just wrong.
