Well they don't want to do it regardless. Again, the Women's game loses money so them doing something is not something the Men's side wants to follow just to follow. The NBA is a totally different entity that has games every night and trying to substain a larger marketing plan. Men's basketball is very regional in many cases and I doubt they even want games to take as long as an NBA game. Also multiple games in a day on a national stage is also more common.
So you keep talking about this and it is not going to happen. It even seems like they are not trying to change just to change something. There was actually thought that went into not making this change.
BTW, they are not advancing the ball either. JD Collins alone sounded like he was not a fan of that at all either.
Peace
