Was that before or after the league decided to postpone games?

I though that was why the NBA decided to postpone games. I'm probably wrong. It happens more often than not.

He's the players best friend, owners won't replace him with another players shill, ever again. This is where it got them.

What?

Silver has handled the COVID stuff 10,000 times better than any other league commissioner.

What happened last night was out of his control.

Got it


Silver knows his market - his players and his fans, which are 100 percent supportive of these steps.

You aren't in his target market. It's just like Nike.

He's bent over way too much for them and could finally start feeling the repercussions from doing so.

Protests aside, he has executed the "NBA bubble" during the pandemic to basically perfection.

Should he ask Trump to bring in mercenaries and National Guard troops to Orlando and force them to play?

Would that make him a "good" commissioner?

Or better yet, how about some 17-year-old vigilantes with semis to put them in their place?

This would cause a riot and you know it.

His hands are basically tied at this point, a normal boss would just fire the employees that go on strike and replace them with a person with the same qualifications. You can’t exactly fire a Lebron James and find another Lebron James.

Exactly as I thought it would

The usual suspects will gargle the NBA. It doesn't matter what level of crap they're fed on a daily basis
