Back to backs should be eliminated completely. But unless someone on either side is willing to give up money, we will not see a shortened season.
And I have come full circle on the issue. I used to not have an issue with player rest. But as more and more studies show it does not help, and it has become so prevalent I see it as an issue.
Perhaps the league's #1 issue.
