So now the playoffs are expanded to 10 teams per conference. What's the point of the regular season?

Not really. If you’re not a division champ (in 5 team divisions) the best you can hope for is a one game wild card playoff. Regular season is pretty important.

Manfred will ruin it, but it’s good for now.

There's play in games for the 7-10 seeds now, which isn't the same as what you're describing.

I think it's gonna be pretty interesting to at least see how it all shakes out.

Excellent question, OP.

And even better question would be why is anyone watching the NBA regular season?

Why does the N.B.A. even bother existing?

MLB depends on season stats as much as actual championships. The 162 game season is needed judge player values and record books.

I’m not an NBA fan at all but if you take this to the logical conclusion or extreme, why have professional sports at all?

if they can schedule games for less than 9 innings, best believe there won’t be 162 games much longer

I'm sure the massive TV contracts have something to do with it.
