Someone did some math and determined:
The NBA's predictability is seen by many as a bad thing, but I sort of like sports to be more than random outcomes. Still, I think the NBA could use fewer games (60 should do it), shorter games (40 minutes?), just to keep things at a happy medium and away from being too predictable. If not, they should at least cut out the 1st round of the playoffs.
via this and that
To have the same reliability in terms of knowing the strength of a given team, you’d need a 32 game schedule in the NBA, a 28 game schedule in the NFL, an 82 game schedule in the NHL and a 162 game schedule in MLB.
