Jmo, but I think that the games only take too long if we let them take too long. Some games will naturally take longer than others because of foul counts, excessive turnovers, etc. If the officials are consistent about getting the ball back into play promptly, getting the players out of TO's, cutting down unnecessary delays, lining them up for FT's, etc., the games will take what they actually should take. The same applies to football too.

I never worried about the length of a game unless I felt that we were needlessly contributing to that length in some way.
