George Karl enjoyed playing a shorter season due to the lockout in 11-12 and believes the NBA would be better if it became a permanent change.
"I'm sure Commissioner (David) Stern won't like this, but I think the product would be better if we shortened the season. When we start playing in late October, the people are thinking football. If you could just get us less fatigue [in a shorter season], I think you'd have a better product. When they started on Christmas Day, I thought, 'This is not a bad idea. This should be the start of NBA basketball ... Maybe start Dec. 1 and play 62 games, whatever number they'd come to."
