"Shorten the playoffs. They started two weeks before the draft... the NFL Draft." Colin Cowherd says shortening the NBA playoffs is a good idea for the league.

@colincowherd Right question / Wrong answer Chop the first 6 weeks off the regular season. Nobody cares about the NBA in October / November. Start the season the first week of December. 62 game regular season. Reduce the wear-and-tear on the players bodies going into the playoffs.

@colincowherd Shorten the regular season, not the playoffs

@colincowherd Shorten the season, so no back to backs. Never shorten playoffs

@colincowherd Hey Colin. The schtick is getting stale. Chillax with that ridiculous delivery 🤣

@colincowherd Nobody want the Playoffs shorten they trying to diminish the product. While still paying these guys millions to take these Risk. Dame got hurt in the First round. Guys have to come in better shape Haliburton is different he’s just a casualty of the game.

@colincowherd Playoffs taking 3 months is ridiculous. Eliminate the "play in" and condense the games. MLB playoffs are 1 month from start to World Series. NFL is like 3 weeks total. There's reasons the NBA has fallen. When you have 4 or 5 days between games, people lose interest.

@colincowherd Where was all these injuries 10-20 years ago?!

@colincowherd No, shorten the regular season & cut 22 games off. It’ll ease a lot of the accumulated wear and tear that comes with the faster pace of play nowadays

@colincowherd We sure as heck didn't need 4 days between Finals games. That was slow torture. I agree with Colin. Season is just too long. Especially playoffs. The 6th and 7th games of any series didn't change the outcome. The first to 5 game winners won all the rounds.

@colincowherd One thing of note to add.. it was an Olympic summer. Tatum and Haliburton effectively had no offseason. Finals go through late June. Next season starts in October. 3-4 months under normal offseason circumstance, turned to maybe 1 month last summer following the Olympics.
