Howw can player safety and resting players be such a concern for the league, yet right out the gate, OKC has 4 games in 6 nights, 3 games in 4 nights? It’s 2023, even if nobody sits any of these games, fans don’t get to see the best on the floor those nights because athletes need (some) rest. Let alone the first week of the season when guys are still getting acclimated. Please explain the logic here, because all I see is hypocrisy from Adam Silver. This is not a Thunder concern, it’s an NBA concern. (I have a projector screen so I took this pic from Locked On Thunder vid.)
This is literally the best the schedule has ever been for rest and travel. I’d rather front load back to backs than back load them too.
