Also, how long is the tournament?

There will be no regular season games during how long of a period?

No they won't. . .unless they have no shot at the playoffs.

Playoff contenders will lay up to avoid wasting their players.

Reseeding.... Dumb


So are we going to pretend like everyone wasn't complaining how the East didn't deserve all of those teams in the playoffs these past few years? But now reseeding is dumb?

If you are a playoff contender. . .it would be advantageous to lose in the first round.

You can rest all your players, while the shite teams vy for a participation trophy

the default human nature with any change is to oppose it. it's an interesting psychology. ngl

They should emphasize defense. Would really help with fan interest.

Meh, I welcome the change. Seeding has needed a change for years. Only thing I'm not too fond of is the playoff play in stuff, but that's because I'm not big on single game elimination being a deciding factor for advancement.

How about, seeding is based over the entire NBA. 6 are division Champs, 6 will be the next 6 best teams by record, and the last 4 will come from a tournament involving the next 8 teams. Single elimination.

Week off.

Playoffs.

Me Perfect is proving his nba iq again

They need to start the season after the SB and have the finals be when the dead period of the summer is going on

Well, I'm not a boomer, so it doesn't insult me or get under my skin. I just think its stupid. Almost as stupid as calling somebody a beta. Bet you do that too, don't you?

They are essentially eliminating conferences. That is a kick in the nuts to longtime fans, man.
