Sources: NBA reviewing Thunder sitting 5 starters vs. Blazers

The NBA should just have a bye week, like the NFL

You’re an idiot .. why would you rather watch mfs b.s for 15 mins stfu lmao That’s like saying would you rather have 1 bite or no bites wtf is the difference dumb mf

Because I'd rather see the best play than not play, you mathematically challenged fukk.

The difference is 15 minutes you, dumb fukk.

If you have to go to work and you're on your break, would you rather not watch the game on your break than watch it?

Just don’t get it

They was off the day before and the day after the blazers game

They should face a fine of 1 million dollars for every healthy player they sit out. If an All-Star player is rested while healthy, the fine should be 5 million. The penalties need to be serious, otherwise, this kind of thing will continue. Fans should be the priority. Attending an NBA game costs a lot, and fans deserve to see healthy players on the court.

rosters are 15 deep with 3 2-way spots with game caps. Some of these coaches only play 8 guys.

are you saying 15 players should play every night?

The body is fragile, no matter how much you work on it, especially with how the sport is played.

Should be 50 games

Nah you need a tie breaker for playoff implications. 62 games is perfect. Play everyone twice but your divisional games are 3. Eliminate b2b's and gives players more rest. But the Coli will tell you bu-bu-but they'll want even more time off if you cut the games. 10 games a month playing every 3 days is fine.

The season should be ending around now in the 68-70 game range (and start later, so the season ends around mid spring—with playoffs in summer)

The playoff teams have essentially been set for like 1 month lol ..they just moving between seeds in the west which they’ve been doing for the past month as well so it’s pretty redundant

I like 62. I think it should be a dramatic change games wise. Every game has to matter a whole lot sooner.

i was just about to say this

The downside with less games is if you have an injury to a major player for even just a month or 6 weeks, your season is cooked.

Playing 3-4 games a week, and a 6 week injury loses about 20 games. (1/3 of a season). And players will still rest. Slippery slope

OKC wins. And people are bytching about taking their hypothetical kids to see a game and not seeing stars playing?
