And if there are enough Americans and foreigners willing to play soccer in America to create 5 tiers of leagues to fill out the Open Cup, you can definitely do it in basketball... but that's obviously not what the NBA is doing here.


Who plays in it though? The G League is an option, but that’s still not the same because those are affiliated development teams. So for the players it would matter, but it’s not organizations competing like a true Open Cup. That’s why Barcelona’s B side can’t play in Copa Del Rey or the top flight.

I don’t even know what the next league is after the G League.

There are a bunch of semi-pro leagues out there, but that was my initial point, there is no legit league besides the NBA. The G-league is the only other full pro league out there and that is just a minor league for the NBA, so it's not the same thing as Manchester City playing Plymouth Argyle in the FA Cup.

It makes no sense to create another tournament in the middle of the season when it involves only teams that are all already playing each other.
