Fisher has an extensive article on the subject today on The Stein Line. A very good read. One thing I find very interesting. Fisher cited page 341 of the CBA, that says "punishment can be levied against a team or player if a violation of unauthorized agreements can be proven by direct or circumstantial evidence". Emphasis on circumstantial here and one could say that a lot of circumstantial evidence seemed to be presented already. Silver chose to go only for the direct evidence in his first statements. Article further focuses a lot on opinions around the league on the matter and it seems that it is mostly a big outrage, while there are some that took more of the Cuban stance on the matter.
