Basketball Has Too Many Fukkin' Time Outs...

[Shortstop]

How many fukkin' timeouts do these teams get? It's ruining the game. Every fukkin' play in the last couple of minutes and OT is programmed and staged. Play the fukkin' game!

The Celtics - Bulls game tonight was a joke. The sponsors loved it though.

LOL...first time im ever agreeing with you

[reno cool]

absolutely. they've created a dynamic of fouling and timeouts at the end of games that is way out of line. Change the rules so it's stopped. Why should every game end with a bunch of fouls and 2 minutes take 40 minutes to complete?

Vince, you're a good guy. Always remember, I wasn't the one who said the NBA All-Star Game Over was fixed, I don't know where that came from.

Best of luck buddy.

TO's kill the game, they should take one away from each team.

thats why if your smart you only watch the last 2 minutes because it takes 2 hrs

I don't agree; Doc Rivers had all of those timeouts and he still could not draw up a decent play. He needs about 50 timeouts per game to organize his thoughts.

One of the worst coaches in the NBA.

Baseball has more "timeouts":

8x2 +1 = 17 TO between innings
Each batter can request indefinite TO's between pitches
Same with pitchers, catchers, pitching coaches, managers etc
Every time a pitcher is subbed there is a long timeout (I would call it a mini half time compared to NBA)
When a HR is hit it takes a couple minutes till next pitch
