Would this make the NBA about 5,546 times better to watch?
OK, reading some column last week and it mentioned the idea of eliminating timeouts during the final three minutes of an NBA game.
Ever watched an old NBA game, they go BACK AND FORTH with awesome intensity. There is no timeout after timeout after 20 second timeout. I would tweak it and allow a team to call one timeout from 3:00 to 1:00 remaining, and a second with less than a minute left. Would this work? Would this increase ratings and produce millions of extra dollars of revenue? Curious what you think. |

i think the nba would be better to watch if every single player had an electric jersey on at all times wired to electricute them each time they miss a basket or get dunked on.

i think the nba would be better to watch if the entire floor was covered in trampolines and hot air balloons roamed the skies dropping spike guys like those koopa-clouds in super mario 1

WTF? The reason games drag on at the end is mostly because of intentional fouls, not timeouts. The team that was ahead would still try to run the clock down and the team that was behind would still have to foul them.

After all the games and practices, shouldn't coaches just be able to call a play and have everyone know what they are supposed to do? Do we really need 5 timeouts in the last minute of a game? I am with the OP. The last few minutes of an NBA game is borderline unwatchable...and it shouldn't be that way. |
