Can the series be one game as well? But seriously, the 1st and 2nd seed should have bye's, thats the only fair way to take the garbage from the bottom.

Having more teams qualify for the playoffs is the ruin of it, there's just too many qualifiers.


Keep the same format but with the American and national conference, good teams in each conference. Example, Spurs, Hawks, Bulls in national



Memphis, okc, and cavs in American conferences.

The time of travel to change venues might present an issue.

One, and like it that way. I mean that the alds, Alcs, and World Series are fine under that format.

They aren't the worst team, they are just really mediocre.

And they going to be mediocre for a really long time based on their available assets.

Not sure what Kenny is talking about, Lopez actually is playing well. i would dump it down there every possession at least once.

It's kinda dumb that the ATL crowd is booing the crap outta Joe Johnson. He didn't leave them in free agency, he was traded from the team. Plus he was a pretty good player for them that help them make the playoffs consistently. Yea he ain't worth that huge contract, but he was an all star at least for them. Knick fans are more intelligent than that, and I bet they won't boo out Houston or Amare if they appear in front of a knick crowd just cause they were overpaid.
