The additional timeouts in NBA Games have taken "endurance" out of the contest. I simply can't watch regular season games due to the inordinate number of TO's. It's not even basketball.

There are less timeouts in an NBA game than there is in a college game. There are 8 TV timeouts in a college game, plus 4 fulls and 2 30s for each team. In the NBA, there's a timeout between quarters and each team gets 6 fulls and 2 20s. That's 20 timeouts over 40 minutes, compared to 18 timeouts over 48 minutes.
Now, who's taken the endurance out of basketball?

Awesome answer. Nothing gets by you, does it?
