As we sat down with the players that we needed our stars to be on the floor and that that was a, you know, based on average number of games missed historically for injuries or whatever else that that was a fair benchmark.
And, you know, with this exceptional language.
And so we made two exceptions this year of guys who, you know, two guys who missed it by a game.
But I would just say what gets lost in that argument, I've heard people say they don't like that cutoff, is that any place you put the line, obviously somebody's going to fall on the other side of it.
But before we put in this new 65 game rule, roughly one third of all NBA players were not playing 65 games.
and so it's it's it's working from that standpoint i mean our could it be tweaked i don't know i'm just saying that you know that we're also a business and we don't we there's an expectation from our fans that our stars are going to play in games and this lastly like injuries are a huge problem in this league but we put it pretty much put load management in the rearview mirror like you're not people still throw around that term
But that's not really an issue in the league right now.
A genuine issue is injuries and how in the world we're going to solve that.
Maybe AI will help detect movements that lead to injuries and things like that.
But that's the single biggest issue that I worry about because it's seemingly out of our control.
I feel like tanking, we will fix it.
We will find a way to address it and we fix it and we should be held responsible for that.
Injuries are confounding.
Well, first of all,
Players I talk to all the time like playing in Memphis.
I've never heard that issue of players not wanting to be in Memphis, so number one.
Number two, the owner of Memphis Grizzlies, a guy named Robert Perra, has no interest in moving the team out of Memphis.
He's made that clear.
I think, obviously, Nashville is a city on the rise.
There's incredible things happening there.
