Because like anything else, new techniques are applied over time. Pro sports wasn't as gamed in the past as it is today.

The fact is simple, a game in April means a lot more than a game in January. So teams are load managing guys. Players could force the issue...but why would they? They also want to win a chip more than win a random game in Detroit in December.

It sucks for fans, but that's the incentive the NBA gives.
