  • When asked whether the NBA would allow players to kneel, commissioner Adam Silver said quote, "We've had a rule on our books that goes back to the early 80s, that precedes even David Stern's tenure as commissioner, that calls for players to stand in a line at attention during the national anthem. I also understand the role of protest, and I think that we'll deal with that situation when it presents itself." Hear what Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe have to say about Adam Silver's statement.

    Why are we still playing the anthem at the games anyway? I can see if it was an olympic time event that represented the entire country, but it isn't. You don't want ppl to kneel and "disrespect your flag," stop playing it for no reason. Or just change the anthem to "America the Beautiful." It's a better song anyway.

    @MrBeatboxmasta 3 년 전

    No player in the league can complain about Adam Silver has done as commissioner. Sure, they can disagree on some things (like playing in the bubble) but even then, Adam gives them the option to sit out. If he was any more lenient, it would be a free for all. The ONLY gripe players could have is when the Warriors owner shoved Kyle and he got fined less than what players have been fined in the past (in fines + loss income through suspensions) for similar behavior. I agree with Skip on this one but I also understand Shannon when he says Silver will wait to hear all the representative's opinions before he formally picks a side about the anthem.

Now, if the PA says players should be allowed to kneel and Adam refuses, he will get heat.

    Re: Skip's thought about why didn't Adam Silver specifically say "Whatever the players want, we will do it."
    I think the fact that he didn't say that is evidence to support Shannon's point that Silver gets it and is with the players. Consider... Silver could have said what Skip suggested, but that throws the players and the players association under the bus at that point... because IF they don't do something, people know it was them... if they do something, people know it was them. I feel like Silver was thinking to preserve the unity of the NBA by specifically not saying anything that hasn't already been discussed and agreed to by the league and the players association. And, as Shannon said, I think Silver has earned credibility to believe that he will listen and be on the side of players in these situations... and he doesn't want to accidentally step in something that throws players under the bus if they don't decide to go the way he suggested.
