NBA's on-court success thrills Adam Silver. Off-court drama does not.
NBA commissioner Adam Silver has plenty of reasons to be happy about on-court happenings. But he wasn't as happy about some off-court goings-on such as Kevin Durant's trade demand.LAS VEGAS — NBA commissioner Adam Silver reveled for a few minutes in the successes, but the conversation around the league had changed.most recently Nets superstar Kevin Durant
Yet, just as Durant’s desire to leave the Nets had dominated so many conversations around summer leagues and its related meetings, it occupied many of Silver’s comments. Silver pointed out that he had not heard anything about Durant refusing to play so the “two-way street” could be met even while he desires to be traded since teams do have the right to trade players under contract. Still, he described the situation as in need of a “remedy.”
Silver said star movement in free agency does not concern him and can create “a sense of renewal in certain markets.” He said the Durant situation was not specifically discussed by the Board of Governors. “It will be something we discuss as we sit down with players and talk about the collective bargaining agreement,” Silver said. “It is something we both should be relying on the best science. I accept, No. 1, times have changed. In the old days … players played through certain injuries we wouldn’t want players to play through. Having said that, there’s a lot of mystery around load management.
