Why not just cancel the season and go straight to the playoffs instead of ruining the draft, summer league and next season.

Or just have a final four of the 2 top seeds in the east and west, then the Finals 2 days later, single elimination. It would suck for the teams missing out but its better then nothing, places importance of having the best record.

it would be amazing if they ran the nba playoffs like the ncaa tournament. all 16 teams but 1 loss and you're out.

Trade for either him or Garland plus Love if they identify a logjam.


You can just draft my guy maxey if that’s the case. He can do the same thing Sexton does, comes with defense, excellent at getting to the rim and making free throws and capable of getting hot from outside

I don’t see him fitting with Rj being a problem either. Calipari has prepped him well to become accustomed to playing off ball.

I'm not convinced RJ will be an exceptional ball handler anyway.

Spencer Dinwiddie 28 team playoff idea 

Post#711 » by Nbabrothers » Wed Mar 18, 2020 3:53 pm

“ “We could do a five-game tuneup and just jump straight to a March Madness best of seven, winner take all, every team tournament. Not bound by conference but all 1-30 just getting to it bracket style. ” Dinwiddie said on ESPN

First round would be best of five and the top four teams get a bye.

FYI tonight on NBA TV at 10 pm eastern they're showing Jordan's career high 69 pts against the cavs in 89-90. The schedule is worth checking out. Pretty random games, but a decent assortment over the next few days:

THIS! I've been saying for years that the playoffs need to be expanded to 16 teams, best 2 out of 3.It give each team a chance to make more money. This and also all teams in the lotto.
