Lowest viewership levels in 20+ years under his reign. Put ads on jersey's. Allowed sports betting to invade his sport and even advocates for it. He killed the All-star game. Players have made more money than ever but fail to play consistently anymore. Add in that Draymond fiasco too.
He's a horrible commissioner.
That's an incredibly rare viewpoint. Players love Silver. His handling of the BLM was perfection. Talk of expansion. Even more international inroads and suport. GLeague becoming a nonNCAA option. Labor/management peace.
Viewership and attendance is up, actually, while it's down in the MLB, NFL, and NHL. That's impressive given the competition is now more than 3 major networks, not to mention expansion of sports (xgames, mls, nwsl, mma, etc, etc).
