People are losing faith in Adam Silver after ‘worst All-Star Weekend ever’
NY Post
Adam Silver has come into people’s crosshairs after another lackluster NBA All-Star Weekend.
The NBA commissioner caught plenty of ire after the league’s new All-Star Game format came under heavy scrutiny – especially from Warriors star Draymond Green – after years of non-competitive games that lacked much defense.
Sunday was debut of the league’s four-team mini-tournament with games to 40 points.
One team wasn’t even made up of All-Stars, but rather of winners from the Rising Star challenge to make up Team Candice Parker.
Shaquille O’Neal’s team ultimately went on to win the new format with the Warriors’ Stephen Curry taking home MVP honors.
It put a cap on a weekend in San Francisco that left more than a few people unhappy with the state of the NBA under Silver’s leadership.

Wednesday will mark 140 days since the Knicks shook up their fan base and sent a lightning bolt through the league on the eve of training camp. All of that feels rather cute given the way the Luka Doncic-Anthony Davis swap electrified the basketball world two weeks ago, and the continuing aftershocks still reverberating in Dallas, in L.A., and everywhere else in the NBA.
