    It’s only gonna start being a โ€œissueโ€ once teams start overpaying players that shouldn’t make all nba teams

    65 game rule should stay. NBA and fans put too much hype into individual awards for a pure team sport.

    Play the effing games and give the fans what they want. With the rule in place we have seen AMAZING ball all season. So please stfu, and make these millionaires do their job. Smfh

    LeAdam Silver likes to rob DEN and Jokic. Sorry, 1 chip is enough for you. If your star is not from the America, you only get 1. ๐Ÿ˜‚

    If you can’t play 65 games then you shouldn’t be in the league.

      Cade, Ant, Luka, Wemby, and Giannis 5 of the top 10 players in the nba just shouldnโ€™t be in the league then right? Youโ€™re so ignorant ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

    Watch Wemby force himself for those 20 minutes then be out for the playoffs that would be hilarious

    Scoring champ won’t be All NBA, rule makes no sense.

    Or we could have a bunch of Zionโ€™s, Kawiโ€™s, and Ja morants messing up the books also. We canโ€™t be serious rn ๐Ÿ˜‚

    ….Spurs lost to the nuggets only because Fox MISSED 2 game winners at the end of the game!

    david is insufferable โ€” the rule is meant to curb load management not awards. i think the rule should be 2/3rd of the season, not 65 games. i also like vinceโ€™s take. please get david off the air

  11. @Paul4501

    April 9, 2026 at 1:52 pm

    Players want the awards/ money but don’t want to play. CBA negotiated these terms. Honor the agreement!

    If you’re in the nba and you need to take a game off to rest your a b!tch.

    please implement the 70-game rule now
    awards should always go to players who are active on the basketball court throughout the season

    Let me just sayโ€ฆthey do get paid millions to play basketball.. fans gotta pay rent money just to watch games so we donโ€™t wanna hear it tbh

  16. @BarryBlockZay617

    April 9, 2026 at 2:40 pm

    Make it a 60 game rule

    • @Ruk-c8w

      April 9, 2026 at 4:26 pm

      Yeah! give them 5 more games in street clothes

  17. @BarryBlockZay617

    April 9, 2026 at 2:41 pm

    6:03 and then the ppl who deserve 2nd and 3rd get bumped off

    • @ruggednugget303

      April 9, 2026 at 4:02 pm

      Not exactly. If, hypothetically, 3 that would have been 1st team (had they met the 65 game threshold) get bumped to 2nd team, then the next 3 (6-8) who would have been 2nd team otherwise would then be moved up to 1st team. Essentially a swap.

    The Nuggets are so unpredictable. Positively AND negatively

    As Kawhi fan please donโ€™t get rid off 65 game rule I love it. Iโ€™ve seen Kawhi play with bad ankle and bad wrist this year for the first time ever because he knows he is playing great and he doesnโ€™t want to miss out on All-NBA team I swear if the rule didnโ€™t exist he wouldโ€™ve missed a lot of more games due to injury management and he will still be in All-NBA team because he is playing that great. Thanks to this rule I get to watch Kawhi more

    Talk to the OWNERS, COACHES and TRAINERS…. Don’t blame the players for load management!

    • @Ruk-c8w

      April 9, 2026 at 8:19 pm

      We also have to blame ourselves for continuing to watch the games on TV and buying tickets to go to the basketball arenas to see the star players in their street clothes, etc…Where do you think the big salaries the owners pay them come from?
