Adam Silver Confirms Sponsporships On Jerseys Is Coming

[bosoxlover12]

Yeah....the NBAPA isn't gonna let that happen...ever.

 

[Teagz]

Or they could just contract some teams. 
 
 
 
Not like anyone likes the Bucks anyways.

 

[elcheato]

in case they are losing money, they should lower players' salaries.

This is why we had a lockout

 

[buzzy]

Lockout was fun. Let's do that again.

All joking aside I loved the lockout-shortened season. I feel like the schedule should be like that every year, but maybe a bit more spread out because the NBAPA will complain about injuries haha.

 

[RipCity32]

I've always preferred the 82 game season. 

 

[Mexi]

Shorter season with less teams is optimal

 

[CameronCrazy06]

I've always preferred the 82 game season.

66 games made games matter more and they were played more often so you didn't have like 3-4 days sometimes without seeing your favorite team.

 

[RipCity32]

Yeah but in that format it is also a way longer off-season. I don't want to wait until Christmas to watch basketball.

We had some back to back to backs, didn't we?

I'd like a 60 something game schedule but over the timespan of the current calendar.

I feel like we're never gonna go away from the 82 game season. Not in our lifetime.

Yeah you can start it at like December 1st and end it a bit earlier then.

 

[Mexi]

It will stay 82 and unfortunately we will add franchises watering down the product some more

I dont mind sleeves, but i mind ads. This isnt fucking soccer

 

[elcheato]

I'm in favor of a shortened schedule. Chop off an entire month and start later. Make the first round best of 5.

Way too many days off if that was the case.

60 games over that stretch would basically be 2-3 games a week which is so much time off sometimes. I think the time of the season calendar wise should be shorter so they play more games in less days. But then they should also shorten the games because 82 is too much.

 

[RipCity32]

Nearly 6 months of off-season is just too long imo.

Adam silver said yesterday that theyve looked at starting later
Also i think he favors 2 years in college and a 20 year old age limit

This thread has become a future of the NBA thread. Not bad, good discussion

 

[RipCity32]

Feel like he is going to try to change too much to make his legacy on the league. 
I'm going to miss Stern.

I don't know about that. It has more to do with different people having different opinions. He wasn't going to stick his nose in Stern's business and force things on him.
 
Not a fan of the 20 year old age limit. Should be allowed to enter directly out of HS

Think it should be like baseball. Either leave out of HS or stay 3 years. No in between.
