[NBA] Comments that don’t warrant a thread (JUN/TDOS)

Yeah, entirely different circumstance with Hali. The Achilles didn't come out of nowhere; he played on a strained calf. Took a risk and unfortunately the worst outcome happened.

I'm certainly not opposed to less games though, in the regular season and playoffs.

And I can't remember who it was but the other game when Hali was shooting around he had that tape going right up his Achilles they said he's having issues with that from what it looked like.

Man, I loved an 82-game season at a much different stage of my life, when I had far fewer obligations and plenty of time to watch multiple Kings games a week. But these days, watching more than maybe 40 games of my stressful, sad-sack team every season is exhausting for me, and I don't play in the games. Reducing to 62 per season just makes all the sense in the world to me from an engagement and injury standpoint. Whether or not it actually reduces the rate of injury, fewer games simply means fewer opportunities for injury.

As for the playoffs, I would do 3-5-7-7. Create some chance for havoc in the first round, ratchet up the game count for the semis a bit, then go the full 7 for the conference finals and the Finals. 7-7-7-7 just goes on and on and on, and the Finals hardly feel special by the time they arrive.
