The CBA changes to offseason rules regarding live contact, practice time limits, etc. over the last decade cannot be overstated on its impact for younger players in particular. The players union is heavily weighted towards the interests of veteran players, who are concerned with staying healthy and on the field, compared to rookies and bubble players who need more development time and live-fire experience, but that has been bargained out over the years. Not saying that absolves Canales of this team's clear tendency to show up unprepared for the start of seasons but it does mean the entire coaching staff gets less to work with to mitigate it (which should have meant adjusting by more reps in the preseason for the starters at least.)

No argument on that. I hate those rules. Feels like they've contributed to more injuries since their implementation.

Also hated lengthening the season past sixteen games but here we are.
