Anyone tired of the 82 game schedule?

less games means more meaningful games.

Im all for 62 game seasons

It's a pretty simple formula really. Less games equates to less injuries, which equates to a greater overall product. But this is a business my friend. Erasing games also equates to a decreased sum of revenue.

Never going to happen...

They should have 30 games. You play each team once. That's it. That would be a meaningful regular season.

It's obvious that a 55 game season would be better. Maybe even 45.

It's also obvious that, for the sake of overall level of play, the league should be only 25 teams deep.

It's also obvious that hardcore fans would like it if the big stars didn't get favorable referee calls.

It's also obvious that hardcore fans would like hand-checking back and don't like the unbalanced nature that the league has now which favors guards over pf's and centers.





But none of this will change, because pleasing hardcore fans and quality of play doesn't matter in comparison to overall revenue.

I like the 82 games.. wouldn't want the season shorter but if they could add a couple weeks to get rid of back to backs i'd be happy

Hey I'm all for a shorter season, but lets not fly off the handle here. Shorten the season enough where back to backs no longer exist and be done with it. Basically shortening the season to 65-70 games.

Only having a 30 game season is absolutely crazy and isn't realistic at all.. this isn't football.

shuld have only 12 games each season, much more meaningful games

Now you're just trolling

[Killbot]

66 games

2 games outside division (1 home, 1 away)
4 games against division opponents

[KDthunderup]

I would support a shorter season. The end of the season drags out too long and teams start getting tired and sucking and are just waiting for the playoffs.

[ballup]

76 games. 4 games against each division team. 3 games against non division teams in same conference. 2 games against teams of other conference.

maybe i lost interest doing other stuff but this for me was the most boring RS in the last 5-6 years with so many tanking teams and some really bad games.

some great matches middle through the season and some guys lighting it up were my only +es.

I agree, this has been the most boring season since 06-07.

FVCK all you PUSS!ES

the 80s and 90s never complained... why should the kids of the newest generation complain? They literally have the best flights, hotels, buses, training, equipment, pay that the NBA has ever had. its endless how much the average NBA player is better off than they were in the 90s/80s. so therefore their bodies should be much better equipped to deal with the 82 game season.

Plus for records sake, i dont want any other season besides 82 games.
