Maybe the NBA commissioner got "woked" between the eyes
Maybe the advertisers are texting NBA commissioner Adam Silver about the lousy ratings. Or maybe Mr. Silver finds Lebron James as obnoxious as the rest of us.

How it gets manifested is something we’re gonna have to sit down with the players and discuss for next season. I would say, in terms of the messages you see on the court and our jerseys, this was an extraordinary moment in time when we began these discussions with the players and what we all lived through this summer.

Shouldn’t the NBA look like America?
David Stern was a great Commissioner. He would not have tolerated the conduct of today’s NBA players.
Also, does anyone think that Michael Jordan, Larry Birds, or some other former stars would have allowed the crybabies in the NBA act like this?
