Adam Silver hates being the disciplinary figure and would much rather be seen as the 'cool' commissioner.

Michigan is already the favorite to win the National Championship again next season.
Michigan I think is right now the favorites to win next season. Tough to win back to back, but he has to hit the portal. He has to be active... which he already is.
College basketball is now 'pay to win' and that's unsustainable
It's a pay to win tournament. Like basketball is ruined. Unsustainable. Yeah, that's the new word that I keep hearing.
