Dear Deez:
NBA basketball is back – and this season, there is no shortage of appealing storylines, including the remarkable level and depth of talent spread across the league, new rule changes designed to enhance the game and the debut of our first In-Season Tournament.
Every single night there is something special to see as the best basketball players in the world take the court. And whether you are in the arena or watching on your phone, you are part of a shared experience that promises to thrill, inspire and entertain.
I hope you enjoy the memorable moments that unfold over the coming months. And thank you for choosing to follow the NBA – we really appreciate it!
Sincerely, Adam Silver NBA Commissioner
Hmm maybe Silver accidentally sent me the original draft because mine reads (and apologies for removing the parts that would get me banned)….
Dear [EXPLETIVE]
NBA basketball is back - and this season these soft ass player will be forced to play. We said “fuck science” here at NBA HQ and asked the age old question “who has that dog in him?”
Also you’re welcome for rigging the NBA lottery. Nobody wanted to see Wembenyama on the fucking Hornets, the man would be in handcuffs by All Star weekend.
From the bottom of our hearts here at the NBA, we want to thank you for unwavering— and honestly confounding— support of domestic and sexual violence. We really appreciate it!
Sincerely, Adam Silver CCP chairman
