my problems with Adam Silver and ownership

[Fresh]

first off next years all-star game should be East vs West, no more allstar tournaments

also I heard from Thibs that Silver wants to reduce the minutes of the quarters from 48 minutes to 40 minutes game and I don't agree with this

and the Emerates Cup tournament is lame too, and we don't need an in season tournament that nobody really cares about

and I don't like the play-in tournament during the beginning of the playoffs

and not to be petty but the NBA has way too many uniforms regardless of the team

just getting this off my chest

Brehs be like: nba is trash, Silver do something

Silver does a bunch of things

Brehs be like: why did silver change this and that bring it it back to how it was before the changes

East is TRASH

They need to eliminate the conferences and just have 1-16 make the playoffs

Making cats take the regular season more competitive: In season tournaments

Reducing load management: 65 game cut off for various awards

Making the All-star game more competitive: the changes seen yesterday


I’m not in any way saying that they succeeded, but at least they tried

Not a solitary American fan asked for a mid season tournament mimicking a sport they don’t watch (European soccer). Fans want to see the best players play the best players in a competitive game. Did we get that last night?

I bet the ratings fell off the map during the last break when Kevin hart was handing out fishing gear

If you don’t understand my post, I won’t rephrase it. I know people are getting old but discussing this whole, “everything was better before” thing is pointless if that’s what you are locked in on and the only point that brehs wanna get across.

i agree, i always used to tune into allstar weekend due to the conference rivalry. I support the east, and root against the west. And ths was during the hiphop eastcoast vs westcoast rivalry so it was a major thing to me.

Without that context i don't really have a team to route for. Even if i wanted to support my favorite players they can be scattered between both teams. Gives me no reason to watch anymore.

I never really liked the play in thing. Why should a ten seed be rewarded for with a couple wins when the 8th seed might have ten wins more sometimes? Never seemed fair but I think it's here to stay. East vs West should be bought back cause the talent level is more equal now. Why go to 40 minute games when you are the standard for professional basketball? How about less commercials and not giving teams SEVEN timeouts each per game which I never knew till recently.

I don’t see this one actually going through as that’d be loss of bread for a lot of people involved including the league and players

all the gimmicks in the world mean jack shyt when there are so many games where the players give minimal effort and/or are sitting out games without an injury.

ADAM SILVER IS A MAD MAN WHO CANT BE STOPPED

HE’S TO THE NBA WHAT HAMAS IS TO ISRAEL

He's a Tony Khan type owner. Nice guy and players found ways to use him and in return the inmates are running the Asylum
