New NBA Commissioner Adam Silver has vowed to have an open dialogue about officiating that he hopes will bridge the gap between fact and fiction. And while his new methods have caused some early concerns that this will lead to even more criticism than before, the most ardent critic on the other side sees this as a significant step forward.

“I love it,” Dallas Mavericks owner and resident pain-in-officials’-sides Mark Cuban told USA TODAY Sports via e-mail. “We are the only top league where some fans question the integrity of the league. That will change under Adam.”
