I disagree on his handling of BLM but its hard to argue the other points.
Still, I don't think we've seen just how much damage sports betting is going to have on this league and Silver's hands are all over that one. Time will tell.
Also F him still for putting ads on jersey's.
BLM... how can you disagree with the results? It was masterfully managed, made the NBA a more inclusive league, and stirred up the NBA fervor going into the bubble. Again, look at how the NBA has been expanded; his handling of BLM was a part of that.
Ads on jerseys??? Who cares? Soccer has the biggest fanbase in the world, yet their kits look like less gawdy NASCAR fire suits (ask Ricky Bobby...)
Again, the things you are ranting about are what 98% of the fanbase wants.
