What is this fukking guy's problem, he trying to change the game completely.
FIBA is 10 minute quarters, so I hardly think it'd be an adjustment that would change the game completely.

Shorter games would bring about stars playing more games (due to fewer injuries), greater defensive intensity and more competitive contests. Isn't that what y'all want?

This would be a good idea.

The future generations attention spans will only get worse. 2 and half hours for a game is a lot when each team has 82 games

Owners are gonna get some nerd to do the math on the affects of concessions and merchandise purchasing then nix this before it becomes an idea.
Might be more commercial breaks and longer TOs :mjlol:

Blame it all on player safety if people complain, like corporations blame all travel, fruit baskets etc cut downs on the environment :hubie:

The League and the owners are not trying to give up the revenue from having less games. Some of these nikkas don't even pay 62 games, but get paid for 82.

Shortening the actual games is pure desperation but who knows what these gen z players would vote for.

Another stupid ass idea

This is dumb


if they do that…. fukk it let’s go back to REAL basketball

just do 2 20 min half’s and get rid if defensive 3 seconds or whatever so teams can run traditional zones or basically college rules
