    Nba back to back to back games

    There will be 42 sets of three games in three days stretches in the nba this season and every team will have at least one. The lakers start the season with one and Atlanta starts the season with 9 games in 12 days.

    How much of a factor will this be in capping the league? I don't play much nba but always see people talking about back to back road games being a factor. Three in a row sounds like murder. Esp for teams like lakers and spurs.

    '99 season had 64 back to back to back stretches

    I think this will play a small role in certain games...instead of practicing on off days (no games) they will play...fukkn oddsmakers will have this pegged or adjust quickly...

    home teams and under on those back to backs especially..under is gonna cash a lot since most of the league will be out of shape and rusty...under every quarter.

    it's depend on the health of respective rosters at that time, injuries resultant of training camp etc can happen. also some teams have more depth than other; example Denver last year before & after Carmelo's trade, Bobcat didnt fair too well around pacific/west trip in one stretch.

    I think may see a lot of low scoring games just like 1999 short season
