LeBron was faking though.

Pistons Hornets. What a game. JT Thor vs Isaiah Livers, a marquee matchup tonight in the Association

ANOTHER 40 point quarter in the NBA. LaMelo Ball is singlehandedly working the Hornets out of the Wemby sweepstakes

Target score for OT is an example of fake hustle.

You come up with a fake solution to avoid confronting the real problem.


If you were starting the NBA from scratch today you'd probably have max 40 game regular season.

You have bigger stadiums every game would be a huge deal. Injuries and missing games would be incredibly costly.

The regular season would instantly become a high value TV product.


But the status quo bias is too strong, and too many entrached interest have married the NBA to 82 games.


You won't stop load management until you dcreae the number of games.

Why not just do 58 games.
2 games against each time. One road and home.

Take the play/in tourney away.
Every game would be lit af.

Welp looks like there was something to Lebby's "I heard a pop."

What do you have bigger stadiums every game? Every city is just going build bigger venues just for their professional basketball team?

As a basketball fan, that LeBron news sucks.

But I think their newly acquired players make a run still very possible. D'Lo can help with the scoring load, but AD needs to step it up a bit.

58 would certainly better.

I'm being agressive with 40 but I think it would really ratchet up the pressure of each game.

40 games there is no room for error.
I def wouldn't miss a major national TV game.

 

[MVP]

Ownership too cowardly to move off these injured Klutch guys but that'd be the prudent thing to do.

Well no I'm saying like if it was a fantasy world and you could start everything from scratch including the stadiums.

You'd probably have way less games and bigger stadiums.

The current stadiums def inhibit how many games you could get rid of today.

But it’ll never change because of “history” and “tradition”…

 

[tay1]

60 games is the sweet spot.

 

[pmatic]

Play your division opponents 3x
Play the rest of your conference 2x
Play the other conference 2x

62 games in the same amount of time.

 

[sohi 23]

Man a 58 game nba season would hit like crack.
Start the season after Christmas. 2 games a week. Go until like August

[finessence]

Y’all REALLY think these dudes gone give up 20-30 games?? They not taking that type of pay cut
