National Basketball Association (NBA) Commissioner Adam Silver is introducing a new idea for basketball teams to rest their star players during the next basketball season so the masochists I mean the fans can get to see some great basketball games next season.
The idea that Silver is proposing is for basketball teams should rest at least one player during a home game and not rest either the entire team or more than one player.
The complaint from the media is that is the road games that are played on four nights in a row takes a toll on the star basketball players who need their rest from time to time.
If the star player sit out during a home game, the season ticket holders and sponsors of the team will be angry at the coaches and players.
I have a better idea, have robots play the basketball games instead of the star players who are not Iron Men. Thank goodness I am not in Adam Silver's shoes because I could see the executives of the basketball teams asking me "Are you obsessed with Wordgirl again?"

Maybe the NBA now is so rich now that they don't care about price tickets.

@Deepizzaguy As a Warrior fan I was grumpy last year when they decided to extend the series (by suspending Green for a game for the phantom nut grab), but didn't anticipate Bogut going down. Oops. The NBA becomes like professional wrestling.

That is many people are mad at the NBA since the fans are given the cold shoulder.

@Deepizzaguy and to think there are only two teams in NBA playing always in the finals and the succeeding years, Cleveland Cavaliers and golden State Warriors

Okay, I will back Silver's plan. Let's see, no LeBron tonight? That's $5 all seats ticket night. Prices should be adjusted accordingly.

That is a great idea or have LeBron donate his game check to a local food bank.

@Deepizzaguy That would be a pretty good chunk of change.

Good idea like in the NFL preseason when the star players only play a few minutes of a game.

@Deepizzaguy Yep. Let the fans see what they want to see. But do what's best for the team over a long season.
