Charles Barkley questions Adam Silver on the NBA’s addressing of domestic violence incidents

Barkley’s question came at the end of Silver’s interview segment and it appeared that the former star was going off-script by asking the question, as he seemed to brush off a call for the show to go on commercial break.

The NBPA protects their players, not sure why everyone is egging on Silver and the league

Has the NBPA ever stood up and said "the punishment for domestic violence is too high" or have they just been used as a scapegoat because they might say something?
