What on earth..lol
Adam Silver suggests 10 minute quarters instead of 12
- Thread starter BigTyme Records
- Start date
What does this mean?
The average fan is not watching every game every night and most of us grew up on highlights.
Just skip the games you don't wanna watch.
Today's soccer is considered boring by some of the fans, claiming old games used to be more fun to watch, but you don't see big leagues cutting 90 minutes of game time to 80 just so the fans could go home early.
Your star players getting injured? Be better at team construction and player development so you have a backup plan and don't wear your star players out.
If NBA wants 40 minutes format, this eliminates current gen players from achieving some of NBA records in the future. Plus you may never know and scoring averages could drop down just like it was back in old days from high scoring 80s to low scoring 90s. And then what? Back to 48 min again? This is a gimmicky solution. Reduce ticket prices then. I bet none of them will do that.

Football being boring in 2020's and not in the 90's/00's is basically the same discussion the Coli and others on social media have about the NBA.
There has been actual discussions to cutting football matches from 90mins to 60 mins. Part of the reason is that the ball is only in play for 45-60 mins. Dependant on whose playing. Passing elite teams ball in play for 55-60mins. Pragmatic terrorist teams the ball in play 45-50mins. Second reason is to reduce the minutes of players playing. As the football calendar is basically 12 months of the year now.

Yo some I'm watching the interview and Silver said something interesting. He said the NBA seems take a disproportionate amount of criticism when it comes to viewership numbers compared to other sports, that its because the players have been outspoken and have a history of activism.

NBA is the most anti-trump major sports league in America, so obviously a lot of angry MAGA boys and karens don't watch it. When NBA is so easily accessible internationally, they can say fukk trump between the lines as their product is watched by millions outside the US.
Those MAGA losers would probably be watching NBA if there was a white American superstar, but there hasn't been one since Larry Bird
