There is nothing wrong with NBA games length. 2 hours and 15 mins isn't bad at all. I don't get why fans of basketball would want less basketball

Playoffs last 2 months with the normal format

The more basketball the happier I am though. I'm opposed to decreasing games and playoff series

This is not going to happen. MAYBE the playoffs but not the regular season.

You don't need to shorten the playoffs, but you do need to do something about the ridiculous spread between games in round 1. I realize it's done for TV, but these 3 and 4 day breaks are crazy.

I think you are confused. Those spreads only happen around conference finals & finals time.

Most 1st round games are either 1 or 2 days apart.

Nah. They stretch those first 8 series out over almost 2 weeks.

That was because minus 2 or 3 series last year each went 7 games. They still only had a day or two off between games.

Scroll down and look at the dates of the first round games
