True, silver is very underrated imo. Ppl seem to have given respect to David stern more after he became the late David stern, but I think that if silver was much stricter on Ja that he would have more appreciation. I think he does a great job n think he’s gonna do better the more he learns how to navigate the times rn. It’s easier to be a better commissioner without Kobe, shaq, ai, David Robinson, so many other greats, and the goat while dealing with tv screens being improved vs trying to figure out how ppl now consume sports in many different ways. He’s got a tough job fasho, bet he gets paid what he deserves cause this ain’t easy work, so much weight on his position man. Shoutout to Adam Silver, and to JJ.

I think Silver knew that if APPROPRIATE action wasnt taken, a walkout wouldve been inevitable. In those situations, you dont need anyone to tell you that. It was obvious what the outcome would be. Regardless, Silver made the correct decision. Swiftly. And he hasnt missed a beat since. Fantastic commissioner.

Swift, decisive action that looked obvious in hindsight but very difficult to make at the time. Booting out a billionnaire who had been entrenched in the NBA for decades knowing that significant litigiation would follow.

Adam gets a tough rap because hes been comissioner during a large player empowerment era. More protection of its players , a huge increase of pay, players getting into more and more political discussions the list goes on and all these things have accumulated to create more drama around the NBA so more people watching but the quality of the game itself has dissapated. The draft is rigged and hidden behind closed doors to be manipulated. The refs have got worse and most of the players are more interested in money rather than titles. The players have become rather spoiled and he has to deal with that as well as keeping owners relativly happy. Its a thankless job.

Great interview JJ. Now if there was something antisemitic said nothing would have been done as freedom of speech would have been cited. Although over half of the NBA owners are Jewish, including Commissioner Silver, no lifetime NBA ban would have been adjudicated and sentenced in just 4 days. So far in summary, antisemitism is acceptable as protest but anything even remotely racist has a zero tolerance.

Adam Silver is the best type of leader because he completely understood how unfair it is to always put the responsibility of responding to racism on the shoulder of the victims of racism. As the players were voicing, it was unfair that the media was putting the responsibility on the black players to boycott and sacrifice their livelihood in order to deal with Sterling. That's almost like a double-whammy of racism. Adam Silver recognized this, bit the bullet and stood up for what is right at the risk of ruining his own career right at the beginning, at the risk of triggering a very costly litigation with Donald Sterling (which thankfully his wife stepped in to do the right thing avoid this). He thought about the long term and what is right vs the short term and avoiding litigation acutely. He recognized that the players needed their CEO to be an ally, which is exactly NOT what 99% of CEOs in our country do. All they give a crap about is the bottom line and printing money. Not standing up for what is right.

David Stern would have made a weak effort to distance the league from Sterling's comments without doing anything to antagonize him, because Sterling was famously litigious and Stern was terrified of him. If the players had boycotted, Stern would have threatened and punished them. And then when the league suffered from that, Stern would've blamed all the negative consequences on the players and taken no responsibility.

The problem wasn’t that Sterling was racist, the problem was that he was a racist owner with black employees. How can u have so much hate in your heart but yet have the audacity to smile and laugh and joke and employ somebody that u hate? It’s a moral contradiction, are u really this slow or it’s an act?? Bruh, it’s cause and effect. Get mad at the people who started racism and maybe just maybe it wouldn’t exist

The entire league walking out would have been dumb in my opinion. You don't quit on your team, fans, league just because one guy said some horrible stuff. Adam Silver did what he needed to do and that should have been good for all the players. Sterling said horrible things and he paid for them with the ban and loosing his team. That's about as good as you can ask for something like that. If anything, I think the players should stand proud based on what happened because it shows that people care and won't tolerate that kind of thinking that Sterling had. I think the NBA handled an extremely difficult situation very well.

@@samuelonthatop1125 First, African American history (which is actually just American history in my opinion, nothing to do with Africa) is not directly related with what Donald Sterling did/said. What did you want them to do? Have everyone quit playing basketball? What would have that achieved? Would it have kicked Sterling out of thr league faster? No. Would it have changed the vast opinions from people of him? No, everyone already thought he was a scumbag. It would have done nothing but disrupt the careers of the players that they worked so hard for, and the jobs of the tens of thousands of people who support the NBA and those games that go on. Why let one man's terrible comments cause all that damage? No one needed the players to boycott games to bring that story to light, it was already a massive story and anyone paying attention to basketball already knew about it. There was nothing to gain by going on strike. My personal opinion, the more people keep talking about how we are all different races and keep talking about racism the more life we give to it. The quicker everyone just stops talking about it the quicker generations of people will grow up not looking at other races as other races but they only look at others as different people and race won't even be a thought anymore. People just look different as we all do. The more we keep making huge deals abouy race the more it will continue to live and be the narrative in so many situations. Want to end racism? Let it go. Let the present and future leave it in history. I'm not saying forget about it, history is important to teach, but we can leave it in the history classroom and operate in the real world without it. Every generation we have a chance to do this, but it will never be achieved if we keep bringing it up as if what we learn about in history is still well and alive today. When we come across a person who still had a horrible mindset in today's world, you push them aside and move forward to a better place. They will be left behind in history if we let it happen. I encourage you to look up Morgan Freeman's thoughts on this. Smart man.

@@bobbycone2 you have no idea what you are talking about. did you hear donald sterlings comments? basketball is just a game. You obviously don't know anything about Black history. You call it American History? Of course you would associate it with slavery. Donald said he didn't want ANY black people brought to his courtside. Which is funny af considering 95% of the league is Black and making them money, entertaining and being a puppet to you and everyone. if you cant empathize and see how a walkout is smart, then do your research.

u can't take away a team just because you don't like what they are doing on the court.. Sterling's case is different because there is potential legal ramifications.. plus the owners are the one that have the power to take away a team from an owner.. not Silver..
