“Let me be clear: Any new approach must ensure the integrity of the game. One of my most important responsibilities as commissioner of the NBA is to protect the integrity of professional basketball and preserve public confidence in the league and our sport. I oppose any course of action that would compromise these objectives. But I believe that sports betting should be brought out of the underground and into the sunlight where it can be appropriately monitored and regulated” ShouldBelieveImportantActionCoursesGamesI BelieveSportsResponsibilityClearIntegrityProtectBasketballApproachLet MeObjectivesCompromisePreservesLeagueNbaSunlightBettingSports BettingNew ApproachCommissioners Author:Adam Silver

“I believe the United States of America must remain a standard bearer in the conduct of war. That is what makes us different from those whom we fight. That is a source of our strength. That is why I prohibited torture. That is why I ordered the prison at Guantanamo Bay closed. And that is why I have reaffirmed America's commitment to abide by the Geneva conventions.

“You should understand that private faith does not force public decisions. That's how you work at compromise.
