Nuggets coach Michael Malone slammed Adam Silver’s idea of shedding two minutes off each quarter, a move the commissioner floated in a radio interview in hopes of appeasing the shorter attention span of modern TV viewers.
“I hope we don’t go to 10-minute quarters,” Malone said before his Nuggets lost, 122-112, to the Knicks on Wednesday night at MSG. “I hope we don’t go to the four-point line. I hope we don’t become Barnum & Bailey where we’re just having to do whatever we have to do to keep viewership.
“Because there is a history and greatness to this game. And a purity to this game and I hope we can find a way to stay true to that.”
