Ridiculous. Cut the free throws time in half and you save all those minutes.
Lots of ways to speed the game up. Most guys seem to be barely getting a workout as it is with all the stoppage. Jokic and Embid never reach 60% of a sprint.

The TV partners are not going to be nearly as important when the game itself continues to become a mockery of

I don't think anything you listed would make a difference to the bottom line

I am convinced the season will never be shortened. Because no one knows the true math and it is too risky to guess

NFL fans: “Full-time NFL refs” NBA fans: “No league refs”

I want full time refs for both sports that are run by an independent organization.

Another idea, don't start the game 12 minutes after the broadcast start time

LOL, this is a great one if they are really worried about "network timing"

To be fair, DP asked him to give an idea for the NBA similar to the new NFL kick

Everything about soccer outside of the U.S. boggles my mind. Relegation will

Also 3 > 2. A three point shot is better then all two point shots except ones

Of course I understand that. THe ball doesn't move as well in the NBA because so much of it is ISO. The college game

The NBA has far more assists than the college game. You simply don't have any idea what you are talking about.
