I just listened to the JJ Redick podcast with Adam Silver and it made me start thinking who the best commissioner has been in the league’s history. I feel like Stern was kind of wild at times but Silver’s also made some mistakes too.

    Stern. Pre 2015 you had to be a real man to play in the nba.

    It’s NOT Stern.

    The Jordan cover-up.

    2002 WCF

    Frozen envelope.

    Malice In The Palace

    Tim Donaghy.

    Spurs vs Suns

    Seattle debacle

    2 lockouts

    Stern got lucky Jordan was around, and if he didn’t have a Jordan he would have made one. The most gangster of commissioners across all major sports, he was a problem in contract negotiations also. When Seattle was denied a team in 2013 he spit on them afterwards: “Excuse me, I have a playoff game to get to in OKC.”
