now of course I never want a shortened season, but goodness the games seem so far apart now that we are back to normal. I guess I got spoiled last year getting 5 Hornets games every week. now we're back to 3 games a week and 4 on rare occasions.

These 4 and 5 day breaks are annoying, but looking over the schedule there's only 4 more lengthy breaks like this and one of them occurs in the time period during Christmas, so it'll be fine.

Last years schedule was money for the NbA at keeping fans interest and you had a ton of games each night. They should reduce schedule to 65 games and have shorter breaks in between games

I agree with that and the same can be said for MLB. lets face it in this day and age in the NBA and MLB of overpaid athletes, ridiculous guaranteed contracts, etc. it becomes crystal clear that most players do not give 100% most of the season (see Chris Paul in his final season here other than the Lakers playoff series for a good example of this). It happens all the time and the leagues just accept it because at the end of the day everyone is making money. In MLB half of the players don't even run to first base anymore on ground balls, they just half arse jog and when the fielder makes a mistake they still get thrown out because they were jogging instead of running. Reduce the NBA regular season to 65ish games Reduce MLB regular season 140ish games Fans would be happy and have more interest, but we all knows this will never happen because of the almighty dollar.

NBA should have 60 games, NFL 16, MLB 120.

For every game, except against Philly, In the closing minutes I already started feeling sad that I had to wait to watch the team play. Glad to hear that I'm not the only one. This team is just so fricking fun to watch, can never get enough of good basketball.

I absolutely agree. And the season shouldn't start until, say, late December. Unfortunately, I see no way in hell it'll ever happen.
