That is really good for the fans.
The NBA finally stood up for fans rights. The league sent word that bench players are required to sit down unless they’re reacting to a specific, exciting play.
I made this suggestion early last season after noticing the Cleveland Cavaliers bench stood up for the entire fourth quarter of a Nov. 8 game at the United Center. The benchwarmers were caught up in a Cavs run early in the quarter, fine. But then they kept standing and standing -- most with arms folded, starting blankly at the action on the court.
All NBA players should know there are people behind them who paid more than $100 a seat for the privilege of attending a game and contributing to their salaries.
