Adam Silver in a bit of a spot here.. getting stretched two ways.
1) NBA WANTS LeBron in the Finals (revenue) Millions more will watch. rooting for and against.
2) you have to suspend JR Smith. but with Love out.. the additional hit
with the absence of Smith... Cavs would be down TWO STARTERS.. vs. Bulls
that's a pretty big hit against a very good team (Bulls)
Chicago or Atlanta vs. a West team (GSW)
would not generate NEARLY as much rev for the league
