If load management is real and something we should adhere to, then the league has got to massively overhaul everything. Less games, longer season, eliminate travel, shorter practices, everything.


The league has made a lot of changes to do exactly that since Silver took over. COVID happened right after they implemented some of these changes so you might have missed it, but preseason is shorter and it and the regular season start earlier. They did that to have fewer back to backs and give more days of rest around the All Star Break.

Before Griff/Nelson took over, one of the last things the Pels did to improve the health/training situation was give AD and Jrue wearable devices to monitor their rest and recovery. If they weren't getting enough they'd skip practice. Load management is definitely a thing.

Honestly it's hard to see load management during 2020-2021 season.

No back-to-backs but there were matches every 2 days.

Even Lebron, Kawhi etc had complained about the fact there were too many matches (it will be even worse with the play-in and probably the mid-season tournament).

NBA is business...I doubt it will change.
