Green Suspension
Mr. Silver, It saddens me that the NBA has become a cesspool of politics and corruption. I have cancelled my nba league pass. Do you think the public cannot see the manipulation of playoff series, as well as point shaving controlled by nba referees? You have lost this household.

Entertainment?
If the owners think the fans are too stupid to appreciate watching the game played by the rules they are wrong. Try having a positive influence on the game and respect the rules in every game. I am tired of watching the farce!

Suspension Of Rules Of Basketball
The NBA is becoming the professional sport which makes a mockery of the rules of the game. There is a clear directive from the league to officials to "let them play" in the playoffs. The 4th game in the finals was about the worst I have ever seen in 50 years of watching the NBA. Play basketball!

NBA Finals
Two hands on a player is a foul. It is a foul because nothing good comes from it, only more physical play, more trash talking, less skilled basketball. Officials need to make the calls, regardless of player or team. Players need to respect each other, the officials, and play the game.

I can no longer stand by without commenting on the farce that NBA Basketball has become. We have turned the game into a WWE/Harlem Globetrotters travesty. I have coached and been around the game for 40 years and allowing the total disregard of the rules of the game will ruin it from the youth on up

Draymond Green
Look at game 4 tapes with the double foul that's is grounds for a one game suspension. You gave a nobody a one-game suspension off the first sign of a problem but with green and you continue to let him do the dirty plays

Draymond Green
Can you honestly sit there and say he shouldn't have a suspension for all the dirty plays he's had this playoffs is ridiculous. As commissioner you think you would hold yourself to a higher standard but obviously with green you dont he should be gettin suspended for all the dirty plays this playoff.

Bad Refereeing Game 4
The Refs suck! The end of the 2nd quarter there were two obvious no calls and then the coach gets a "T" !! I know you saw it and I hope things get better. It also looks suspect on the game calling the Refs are doing for the Cavs, and I'm rooting for them.

Well you must know that Cavaliers are going to lose the game again. Hence why you are not in Cleveland tonight. I guess I should be happy that you will not let Golden State win their Championship here in Cleveland again. Gotta watch I say, a Cleveland fan was fired for their comments on social med

Hopefully the fans in Cleveland don't sell their tickets to Golden State fans and they just send them back into you not used. The "Q" should be empty for both games of the Finals. Maybe then you would catch the point. Here comes another Finals loss at home for the Cavs/celebtation for the visitos

False CEO
I'm not sure if you're instruction is "don't call fouls". If it is, then well done. The officials have absolutely changed this game. Despite what media says, it should always be officiated the same. You're in charge of this nonsense. It's not enjoyable to watch when you have double standards.

Officials
Mr Silver, I am impartial and as a true lover of the game of basketball I want to see each team with equal opportunity to win. the officials control the game and have made it an unfair game for teams throughout the playoffs to have their best opportunity to win... ITS EMBARRASSING...

Rigged
This is just another example of how bad your league is. That was clearly an over the back foul on Barnes with Love, but it is clear that your league is fixed. This is just like the WWE.
