‘Warriors vs. Everybody’ good for NBA

The superstar NBA player Kevin Durant signed with the super team Golden State Warriors. NBA commissioner David Silver does not think this is a super-duper development.

Silver says it’s fine that Durant exercised his rights as a free agent. However, Silver says the concentration of superstars on one team is not good for the league and wants the next collective bargaining agreement to be one that “encourages the distribution of great players throughout the league.”

That won’t happen. It’s an unattainable goal because there aren’t enough superstars to go around. Players are never going to accept more limitations to their free agent rights.
