This man just can't help himself.

Cool, then we can have even more commercials to fill time.

**** this guy.

Of all the issues in the game... Quarter length might have been the last thought I had...

WHY CAN'T HE STOP TINKERING WITH THE PRODUCT JUST LEAVE IT ALONE YOU SKELETOR LOOKING BITCH DO YOU EVEN LIKE BASKETBALL

I am done with the NBA if this is the case

Another reason why I miss David Stern so bad in the last few years.....

Crazy how much worse the NBA has gotten since Nosferatu took over. Guy is so completely out of touch with the sport.

That's one way to bring down 3 point attempts...

On a side note, this would also kill value for bench players/6th men. What's the point of paying for depth when your starter can play the whole game no issue?

Players plays plenty of minutes on an NBA season -> Stars get injured ->TV unhappy -> may give less money, so how can we fix that ?
Less match -> less TV game -> less money, so no.
Load management -> TV unhappy -> less money, so no

... hmmm , maybee I got an idea...

Dude really trying to change this league into EuroLeague.

They should just cut the season down by 10-20 games, but shorter quarters is probably easier to sell to broadcasters than fewer games. So I guess this is a step in the right direction? :-/

I thought Rob Manfred was the worst commissioner in sports right now, Adam Silver is not far at this point....if the 10 minute quarter happens, it's over for me

Silver would have destroyed this product and that would be his legacy....When I saw this title, I thought it was maybe the April Fool's Day....

Hmm, he's referring to the olympic format.....that means no commercials, right? right?

Seriously, it doesn't matter how long the quarters are, as long as every interruption is being used to show commercials, the NBA is basically unwatchable during the end of close games.

Watched almost every minute I could during last years olympic tournament, and it was so much fun without the commercial breaks...

This mfer is gonna ruin the game I love.

3 20 minute periods!

Get this gremlin outta the NBA man. I'm sick of this idiot bending the knee to everything the players cry about. If this happens then I might be done with the NBA tbh.

Next he's gonna want to change the court into a grass field, and then he's gonna want to put yard lines on that field, and he'll change the shape of the ball, and the amount of players allowed on the field at a time, and only one player will be allowed to pass the ball around...

I remember this thread and he was 100% right

Or they'll make the goal a lot bigger and allow one player on each team to commit goal tending...
