Silver unsure about intentional fouling, expects discussion
NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said Thursday he is "on the fence" about intentional fouling away from the ball and expects the league to be "very engaged" about the tactic over the coming months.
A day after the San Antonio Spurs sent the Clippers' DeAndre Jordan to the foul line 17 times in a playoff victory, Silver said he once favored a rule change but now isn't pushing for one.
"I've gone back and forth," Silver said during a meeting with a group of Associated Press Sports Editors.
