David Stern sounds like he has been reading Need4Sheed's petition against the new "zero tolerance policy."

"We are not taking the emotion out of the game and it's not a zero-tolerance policy," Stern said. "We think heat of the moment expressions and emotions are good for the game. We don't expect players to be robotic."
