I don’t understand who plans the league. It’s already the most pointless regular season in American sports, we watch 60 games that mean nothing and the star players rest, just so there can be a 22 game sprint to see who makes the playoffs. Instead of changing this issue, the league goes and adds more games that mean nothing (in season tournament)??? I don’t understand. Sure you get money if you win, but it still blows my mind. There is already a decline in viewership because the market is so saturated so why are we making it more so? If you have to make rules that require your own players to play in league games, don’t we have a problem on our hands? I would be really interested for someone to explain the rational behind the 82 games season because I am clearly missing something. Thank you!
