Speaking of milking injuries, you won't find a lot of players in the league softer than Tyler Herro. Guy had a minor injury vs the Pels over 2 weeks ago and said he felt fine but goes on to miss 8 straight games lol this guy can't be here next season.
He's resting for the playoffs. Understandable. The season is too long.

Pat Riley advocated for a 10-game reduction in the season back in the 80's but the owners said no because they contended back then that that move would seriously affect their profit margins because salaries were escalating too fast for their collective comfort.

They were lying and they were wrong. Would have been a good time to kill a bunch of them before video really took off.

NBA schedule makers totally fucked them over. Paul George out as well. All they had to do was swap the lakers and clippers games time wise.


Not exactly a deciding factor with both George and Kawhi sitting.

Regardless, of course the schedules are FUBAR. The Lakers only have 5 games over the next 14 days, but played I think the league high in B2Bs to this point? If not the most, they're close.

How difficult is it to plot out a game every other day? Base your computer program on that, and any B2Bs should either be shared by both teams involved or only for home games if that isn't possible.

Going to likely end the night in 8th now

Way to late in the season to lose games because you had no urgency or focus

Worked out fine last year
