I feel like the 65 game minimum for award eligibility was a solid start and they should have just let that play out a bit to see if it makes a difference. I get where they’re coming from with these ideas and would obviously rather watch stars play, especially when I pay to go to games, but this just feels weirdly complicated and annoying for everybody involved.
This is gross. NBA owners are fucked up. We are gonna need you to play injured otherwise we are gonna lose our Bud Light deal.
