Obviously the league office can review and comment on anything they want, but it's not always their choice to do that.
From what I understand, only part of that is right. The teams submit plays for review, and the NBA replies to all of them privately. The NBA decides which to publicize, without team input.

Seems kind of silly to give teams the option, they're going to want ALL of them publicized if they felt so strongly about a play that they are sending it in for review.
