For all the wonder of the Suns and the Warriors, the NBA isn't getting much faster. Most coaches are paying lip service to "opening up the offense" and playing uptempo, but the NBA's pace factor (a measure of possessions per game) sits around 92 currently. To put this in perspective, the average pace in the eighties was over 100?in the seventies it frequently settled around 105. The 04-05 Suns ran at 95.9.
