Damn I just realized they both timed it perfectly…if they play in the last game tomorrow they hit the 65…and the game is kind of meaningless…that’s kinda wildIts crazy players like joker and wemby were on the verge of missing honors 2 months ago, and by the grace of GAWD have been able to play in 95% of their games since.

86 this stupid ass rule.
over 100 nba players played over 70 games
even soft injury prone players like brandon ingram played 76 games, jamal murray 75, clint capela 74, lamelo ball 71 games
the rule is fine

Just like a nikka who box score watches games to say this rule is stupid.
Wemby mentioned minutes played... that could be where this goes

And from what I’ve read, there’s a provision that allows you to play 62 games if you have a season ending injury. Don’t known if it’s regular season ending, cause the voting begins before the playoff. So both Cade and Luka should have no problems right?
But in true CBA fashion, it was a bunch of covenants in the provision. So who really knows

It seems a lot of y'all are completely missing the point that a portion of these players are either going against medical advice or what their bodies are telling them just to meet this 65-game threshold. I'm still on the fence about this rule change, as we've already seen someone like Luka who ended up suffering a likely season-ending injury and who knows what effect this rule change had on that.
If it didn't exist, there's a world where the Lakers are more careful with his workload and he doesn't get injured.

I know you ain't trying to accuse other folks of this behavior, when you're the biggest box score watcher on this board (you even admitted you don't watch games).
All you ever do is on here is walk into any thread that gives you the opportunity to suck Pierce's dikk.
