How amazing Adam Silver is as a interviewee is astonishing to me, he's so informational and speak so well about his points. He's the best one they had on this show yet.
Adam Silver ARGUABLY, IS A PRIME EXAMPLE of the type of guy you want as a commissioner. I’m NOT saying he’s perfect but he looks out for the players. He banned a racist owner named Donald Sterling for life. THAT IS HOW YOU HANDLE BUSINESS. You know that wouldn’t happen in the NHL and NFL. We all know that the NFL, and NHL are savage. All the NFL cares about is the next dollar. That’s why they got nailed with that concussion settlement. Once a player gets released, the NFL treats the player like they never existed. People that I’ve met that played in the NFL told me that. The NHL isn’t much better with players losing teeth and the fist fights that go on there. The MLB has a steroid problem but I think that’s more under control now. That MLB Commissioner Mr. Manfred Jr. seems to be alright. You don’t hear much negativity since he replaced Bud Selig.
Yea he definitely well respected.....and out of all 4 major sports the NBA is of course a players league.....not saying there perfect but compared to other sports they are the best
He came out the gate swinging. Immediately earned my respect. And that was public, who knows what he’s done behind closed doors leading to getting rid of the Suns owner? He speaks plainly & clearly.
I love the 65 game rule. It’s one of those things that later in the future, we will learn to appreciate. The issue is that players are getting paid life changing F.U money to have a reduced role in their respective teams. And I think as a business owner, that’s the best thing you can ask for, your people to show up to work. They’re asking to show up at least 80% of the time. Any other job, showing up less, regardless of how valuable you are, you’ll be fired.
I think Adam silver is the best of the big 4 commissioners. Genuinely a nice guy who shows his passion and commitment to the goodening of his product. Much respect
Louisville, Pittsburgh, Nashville, Montreal and San Diego deserve to have a NBA team too. I sincerely believe that the NBA & NBC are going to reunite with each other in a new tv deal. NBA & Amazon would bond together very well.
Adam Silver is brilliant... the marketing approach for the next era of telecasts should cater to as many human creature comforts on a dopamine feed. Whether that's good, socially... meeeh, but as business goes... 😮
Yeah thank him for having to bribe his millionaire players to play and play hard worst commissioner and NBA is going down all other eras evolved the league now everyone is for themselves and this clown says there more popular flat lie look it up
32:58 i love the fact that he says Connor's name before answering the question. Its so simple, but most guests dont know or acknowledge the other guys on the show.
YES!. So bummed when we lost the Grizz. Was lucky enough to see Kobe and Shaq courtside. Lol, and Vince not dunking and the crowd booing him. A home team booing a guy not on your team for not dunking was hilarious.
If anything, if there was such a Canadian city that strongly deserves an NBA team, it would be Montreal, Canada's second largest city, second largest corporate center, and media. Vancouver isn't even the third largest corporate market in Canada, that would be Calgary!
I only see two teams in terms of expansion and it's going to be Seattle & Vegas I don't foresee further expansion. Anybody else would have to be via relocation! Mexico City will get a basketball team before Pittsburgh or Cincinnati
It'll be two, and they'll likely move Memphis to the East to fit Seattle and Vegas in the west. They will also reconstruct divisions. 4 per division. West: Southwest: Houston Dallas San Antonio New Orleans Central West: Minnesota OKC Utah Denver West Pacific: LAL LAC Phoenix Las Vegas Northwest: Portland Seattle Sacramento Golden State East: SouthEast: Miami Orlando ATL Memphis East Atlantic: Charlotte Washington Philly Cleveland NorthEast: NY Brooklyn Toronto Boston CentralEast: Chicago Detroit Indiana Milwaukee
@JustAnotherAlex .... i agree except I think even though Memphis is the most East.... Minnesota would be the team coming east based upon how close they are to Chicago Milwaukee and Detroit Charlotte would be in the Southeast Division with the Florida teams & Atlanta
@@kdogglv Seattle isn’t the only city in the United States that has a fentanyl/drug/homeless problem…maybe you should do some research before you talk.
The NBA should allow all weekend, regular season games to be free as well as the Allstar weekend and nba finals. That would really help them continue to grow while still getting subscriptions from fans who want to see every game, games in other markets, etc. Because we don't see as many free games, there is a lot less hometown loyalty and therefore less people going to games in markets that aren't championship contenders.
Those are the 2 teams rumored to have expansion teams. They’ll more than likely move Nola and Memphis over to the eastern conference and bring Vegas and Seattle to western conference. Seems like a win win and win imo. Vegas and Seattle get their teams, nba gets two big markets and the eastern conference gets more competition.
The clippers last season are a prime example of load management backfiring. They load managed kwahi and pg all season. They were in the top 4, then dropped to 6th. This costing them home court. Then both stars got hurt in the first game.
Really cool just listening to him talk about all the things, smart dude & very well spoken. I will say this, I think they need to modify the 65-game thing to include an independent/NBA commissioned doctor review when someone is actually INJURED, and those games should not count against their eligibility for the length the doctor says. Halliburton is a great example of why that should be the case. Maybe even to counteract that a bit, raise the number to a minimum of 70 games played to be eligible & the only exceptions would be for injury terms. Example of why I feel that way: If someone that's having a truly great season and is pretty much guaranteed All-NBA etc, and then they go out for 4 weeks with something serious, they shouldn't be all but guaranteed to be excluded from awards because of that, is my perspective on that.
I live in Vegas. We need an NBA team and an arena to go with the Brightline Railway they are going to break ground on right at the beginning of the Summer this year.
It would never be appoved by the owners/players for financial reasons, but a 50 game season would do amazing for the watchability of the nba. Shorten the season a bit and remove all back to backs.
this is exactly why I think Jordan wouldn’t be scoring what everyone thinks he would be because the style of play, it’s that his own teammates would want to get that incentive money too and plus shorter contracts, or you really want 1 player shooting the ball 40+ times a game
We come together as a continental, if not global, collective for the Super Bowl as intensely as we do Christmas (Am I lyin'?!). I've been saying, for the last 20 years, it should literally be an American holiday.
That's completely the sentiment, @@DeeJayTrellz... who you gon' get to do their job, effectively, on that day, anyway, when all they're mentally preoccupied with is everything around what they're doin' for the event?!
I live in the neighborhood across the street from the studio and see it almost every day. To clarify, there is intense security! Theres a giant skeletor or something at the front door and it scares the crap out of me when I see it. 😂
I wonder what would happen if NBA went the way of the NFL and had a lot more of the games on national television? I watched a ton of NFL games through Sunday football free channels. If more people had access, then wouldn't the NBA make a lot more on advertising with the respective channels and the deals there? A thought.
People just don’t consume the NBA. Problem is the fans are all young and they don’t watch tv . Basketball is the “cool” thing for that age . Like rap music. Eventually people grow up and gravitate to NFL.
Screw Vegas & Seattle, give us back our vancouver team Adam! we still talk about em, we still wear their stuff, and we sell out everytime the raps come to town now.
I’m thinking if there’s an actual reason that they don’t want to, it might be cause the players don’t want it. I think, just based on free agency signings (and I could have missed something), that Toronto has trouble getting big named free agents and there’s no reason to believe that Vancouver would be different
Vegas will get a team in the next 2 years. Problem is that the casinos want all the action to be on the strip (for obvious reasons) which causes all sorts of traffic issues. I hope the NBA arena gets built a little away from the strip so that area can breathe a bit. Stadiums for Raiders, Golden Knights, A's (in the future) are all within a mile radius. Add an NBA team stadium and its a total disaster..
Not that this solves the issue but they might just make a deal with the golden knights to use their arena (I’m assuming it was probably paid for in large part by tax dollars anyways).
Please please bring a team to KC. KC already had an NBA ready stadium and the fan base for it. Jayhawks basketball is huge, and the Big12 tourney is held there every year
What the nba should do is do what the mlb does and make series outve games so you play 2 games against the the Vegas team for a road-trip so ppl can make trips outve it to go see their teams play against the Vegas team. Like if the lakers play the Vegas team Thursday and Saturday I’d make a Vegas trip outve it to watch my team and enjoy vegas
Sports are the best way to bring people together, the World Cup every 4 years is proof of that, different cultures, ways of living come together around the world! Which is just bananas, and now the NFL is becoming that in a much smaller scale of course
65 game rule is great. And if i read correctly, there have only been 4 MVPs in history that won MVP plaing less than 65 games. 2 of them, due to a lockout and shortend saison. So, nothing really special there. But JJ Redick had a great point on the super-max rule..that is nonsense and needs to change.. On load managment, i quote Sam Mitchell: if you are tired, skip a shootaround or training instead of not playing. Thats how they did it back in the time.
@@tonykiriakidis5219 Exactly! It's not like he's talking about how great Gordon Hayward is compared to every other black player that's obviously better 🤣
"Going to see more defense and more of an actual game." Well, I don't think in any life time will I ever see a game have an actual score over 300. Bring back the 90's All Star games.
@@georgecoumbos2511I think if Canadians had more of a presence in the NBA like the nhl, there’d be more of a push for it, but as far as I can remember, no big free agent has ever signed with Toronto, so I imagine Vancouver would be in the same boat. It’s hard to convince an American (especially one with money like a pro athlete has) to move to Canada
WHY NOT MAKE THE ALLSTAR GAMES FOR RIGHT AFTER THE SEASON AND CREATE A MORE SPACED OUT NBA SCHEDULE SO PLAYERS CAN REST WHILE STILL WATCHING BASKETBALL WITHIN A SIX MONTH PERIOD
All the bells and whistles he's added has been great. 65+game rule, IST, etc. but my biggest problem with the NBA are the uncalled travelling calls and soft fouls. IF you want to improve the game, improve the ACTUAL product. That step-through move is the cringest thing...
