So now even NBA rookies get load management... Ja Morant OUT (rest)

[GoldenGlove]

The NBA needs to get more creative with the scheduling since this Load Management shyt is becoming a bad look. They mostly care about the nationally televised games with the big matchups. If they aren't going to shorten the season, (which I don't want to see) they need to really try and ensure that no team playing on TNT or ESPN is having a back to back.

That's all I got

Can we start pushing for load management in the workplace. Seriously, I want those German 28 hour work weeks.

Every game matters. And an 82 game season is fine. How does a game you gave away early in the season, not matter when your fighting for playoff position/home court last 2 weeks of the season?

New generation is so scust

Ridiculous. Never been sold on Morant, though.

Load management probably gonna be an issue when it comes time to negotiate that next TV deal

More so when it’s time for that gambling deal negotiations to start. They are fukking with betting lines and costing fans and bettors money by load management.

this is why real nikkas can't get over the past. Everyone comparing Ja to AI yet allen averaged 41mpg for his career and 40mpg his rookie season. Ja out here averaging 27 mpg and needs to take rest less than 10 games into his career

Watch nikkas eventually try to say he's better than AI soon too on some "he's more efficient!" type shyt

This post is so completely irrelevant and unnecessary

No one involved wants to give up the money which is why there won’t be a rush to change things.
