This is not David Stern’s NBA anymore.
The old commissioner is out of sight and out of mind, but his successor has been keeping a relatively low profile.
Sooner or later, Adam Silver is going to put his imprint on the NBA … it is just a matter of when.
Silver has said the NBA is exploring different changes in all facets of the game, and in this interview with 1280thezone in Salt Lake City, I make a recommendation on Silver’s behalf: Let Eastern Conference teams play Western Conference teams in the postseason. \
Seed the teams 1 through 16, with division winners getting the top six seeds, and then go bracket style to get a mix of East vs. East, West vs. West and East vs. West.
