NBA Injuries

Having a look at the players list, it is quite amazing to see how many players on on the list and the calibre of players.
Should the NBA look at shortening the season, so they can have more days in between games for recovery and would put less stress on the players body?
Players currently on injury list...
Allen Iverson
Luol Deng
Andris Biedrins
Stephen Jackson
Mike Dunleavy
Elton Brand
Tracy McGrady
Andrew Bogut
Michael Redd
Jameer Nelson
Al Jefferson
Ben Wallace
Marcus Camby
Kevin Garnett
Andrew Bynum
Amare Stoudemire

i dont think so, some are just bad luck like amare eye, and big al and wallace. A.I is just shutting it down due to his position in the team. It is a long season but some years you have more injuries than others and this year it just happens to be a fair few star players involved.

They'll never shorten the season.

You always get more at this time of the year, because if the team is out of the playoffs, players don't care about the season, and just get surgury or something.

If they are making the playoffs, coaches keep them out longer to make sure, so they are healthy for the playoffs.

And then players like T-mac... well, they're just broken and will always be on and off the injured list. What was his injury again? Doctors couldn't find a heart in there?

Bound to be a lot of notable injuries when there are so many teams in the league.
