Jay Williams on Ja Morant I do believe the NBA missed the mark on his suspension I thought he should've been suspended for the rest of the regular season without pay and his return should have been subject to successful counseling from the NBA

Brian Windhorst There's a lot of people that made a lot of assumptions about Adam Silver along the way This is as big of a punishment has ever been doled out in the NBA He has been presumed to be soft on crime to a certain certain extend That's not something you can say today

Pablo Torre on the Clippers' punishment I thought that it could've been more

Ben Taylor of Thinking Basketball questions why the NBA has stopped calling offensive fouls when players charge into someone or use their off-arm showing clips from just a decade ago where those moves were illegal and the players didn't even argue the calls when they happened

Zach Lowe Adam should we understand that the Clippers punishment is final or is it still open to some sort of renegotiation in the vein of the Timberwolves with Joe Smith Adam Silver The discipline is final

Adam Silver I think that in terms of Steve's Ballmer statement I'd say putting aside the precise words he chose to use Most importantly he indicated a willingness to accept the league's decision in this case and the accompanying sanctions so that's initially what I was most focused on

David Samson Steve Ballmer in this situation when you're suspended from league and team activities that means he doesn't go to owners' meetings he can't be around the team he can't go into his own arena This is a full one year suspension
