Adam Silver in interview with Chris Haynes (at around 6m52s):
Silver: "We can have a special Lakers timezone. It seems like they have their own channel, it's called ESPN. I've been watching for the last few days. I have it on in my office. It's round the clock."
Silver FTW! _________________ On Lakersground, a concern troll is someone who is a fan of another team, but pretends to be a Lakers fan with "concerns".
“Well, obviously the national media loves the Lakers. Everybody talks about it and when you add LeBron James to the mix, one of the greatest players, you’re going to have even more. But for me, I wouldn’t want it any other way. I want people talking about me, good or bad, because if you’re not, you’re not doing something right. I’d rather be talked about bad in L.A. than play in Orlando and not get talked about.”
Finals and playoffs having low ratings all because of the Lakers/Bron effect. If im Jeanie next CBA meeting will all the collusion not to deal with us im threatening small market teams

Those chumps have always ate off the Lakers. People got whole careers, homes, boats, kids tuition covered just by the Shaq and Kobe feud alone. _________________ So glad we gave you your flowers while you were here, Kobe.

It's nice to have a supportive commissioner. As a Laker fan, I'm not used to it. _________________ "Every hurt is a lesson, and every lesson makes you better”

Yeah I’m suspicious af when anyone outside the Lakers circle talks anything positive about us. I find it safer that way. But it’s good he’s making the effort to recognize a bias in the media. _________________ DEAR BASKETBALL

comish has always supported us publicly while stabbing us in the back behind the scenes ...just wait for more 'basketball reasons'
Silver is just Stern's old lackey. I find it dubious the idea that he's pissed that BSPN is bashing the Lakers. Not too long ago he grumbled that Brawn left the East, read: he left one of the many flyover franchises that needs to be boosted with money from richer teams to join the Lakers. He's just pissed that the Lakers get more coverage than the teams in the Finals and Toronto in the Finals gives him a pants tent. He'd screw us like Stern did if given the chance. He's gotten rave reviews ever since forcing Sterling out, a no-brainer move. I doubt he was encouraging Stern that he needed to go and/or drumming up support by the other owners behind the scenes because it was the right thing to do even before the racist comments were exposed. Sterling was known to be a Trumpish landlord type, an abject weirdo, and a parasitic owner for years. As for "They'll figure it out," what's giving him that notion? The fact that they've done so well for the past 6 years? _________________ GOAT MAGIC REEL SEDALE TRIBUTE EDDIE DONX!
I really love this dude.
He has an honesty and integrity about him that I appreciate.
Such a contrast to Stern.
I disagree. Anyone who would take a meeting with a Rich Paul about Luke Walton has a shady side. Why would he feel comfortable in talking about that kind of thing with an AGENT?!i do appreciate his honesty when asked point blank about it,... but talking about it with Rich in the first place was wrong.

Did you listen to the interview?
Silver said he was eating with others and Rich happen to be there.
And Rich just mentioned it in passing.
Not a meeting.
Side: Silver seemed to insinuate that one of the people there leaked the info as Silver didn't really think much of the encounter.
Silver clowns BSPN for the around the clock LAKER bashing.
Yep. I'm a little impressed how Silver bashed ESPN with a few simple words. I guess
less is more. _________________ Lakers need to build a freaking team !
