Adam Silver explains why he and the NBA can't veto this season's controversial Luka Doncic trade despite ruling over Chris Paul's past trade.

After the Mavericks traded Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers at last week's NBA trade deadline, there was an overwhelming thought from fans that commissioner Adam Silver should have stepped in and vetoed the deal.

We also had a Donatas Motiejūnas trade in 2016 get rescinded due to back issues. The Rockets traded him to Detroit, but the Pistons voided the deal. It was the second time these two teams were involved in a voided trade. The Pistons traded Sean Elliot to the Rockets for Robert Horry and Matt Bullard in 1994, but Elliot failed his physical.
