Adam Silver Suggests European Teams Could One Day Compete In NBA Playoffs

Looks like one day we might see the NBA expand into Europe, but do we want that? Commissioner Adam Silver looks like he does...

quote:
“You could imagine teams from Europe, potentially Africa, competing in that tournament,” Silver said. “You possibly could see teams coming into our playoffs, top seeds from other leagues. But over time, I think, for example, certainly in Europe as plane travel gets faster… I’m reading all the time about more opportunities in aviation. When I think of the flight from New York to LA for example, there’s no reason if we had four teams in Europe, you couldn’t travel, play the Knicks or Nets, travel to London, play three, four times in Europe, come back home. So I think it’s very doable in our league."

I don't care what the NBA does but that dude looks like he's an alien from far away.

I wonder what they'd say if a player doesn't want to travel to Europe to give their govt their biometric data.

Dude is looking in all the wrong places trying to fix a broken league. Maybe focus on the culture around players being soft and load management, flopping, bogus fouls for bumping elbows, etc.
Maybe if your American players played with more team pride, and not want to form super teams with their friends, people would watch and you wouldn’t have to worry about euro ball.

This guy is maybe the worst commissioner in sports. I wonder how all the owners liked him telling everyone they can watch highlights on YouTube instead of paying for games and league pass. Not that it matters, but he’s gotta be the weirdest looking guy around. Big ole dweeb.
