Can Adam Silver pull a David Stern
Posted on 2/2/25 at 1:15 am

and veto the trade? This is a perfect "Basketball Reasons" move.

This is fantastic for the NBA. Lakers are set for 12 years

I think he pulled a David Stern and made the trade happen

Why?
You now have the young superstar in LA.

Silver doesn't have half the cojones that Stern had. No way he orchestrated this.

Chris Paul to the Lakers would’ve been great too. Saw how that turned out

Good point... but the NBA wasn't in trouble back then, maybe

Luka traded for 1 first rounder.
Mikal Bridges trades for 5.

they expect you to believe a real life NBA GM who puts teams together for a living at the highest level would sign off on this dumb shite.
it’s honestly disrespectful

Stern was able to veto the CP3 trade because the NBA was at the time the technical owner of the Hornets.

Can’t compare Silvers ability to actually do anything to Sterns grip on the league

Posted on 2/2/25 at 5:16 am to Stealth Matrix
This is bad for the league, but i'm guessing Silver is too neutered to do anything. At this point, the NBA is saying frick Dallas as we only care about the bluebloods. I mean Dallas could've been set up with 4+ first round picks if they went out to auction but they get Street Clothes and a likely worthless 1st in 29.

NBA owned the team.
Might have been concerned about the appearance of impropriety/conflict of interest.

Adam Silver made the trade. Got to have a star player on the Lakers after LeBron is gone for ratings.
Posted on 2/2/25 at 7:05 am to VA LSU fan
And that is everything wrong with the NBA and why it’s getting murdered ratings wise.
They engineer things like this to make that happen.
