Yes i get the players get extra money? But looking at the schedule, the teams that DON’t make it, get nearly a full week off to rest. Teams that do might have to play 3 extra games that winning/losing has no impact on playoff seeding. Explain again why we should want the knicks to advance? Just wait until a player gets hurt/injured in this thing and then hopefully it never happens again.
I have no idea. Personally I think this idea is beyond stupid.
If they want to add a tournament to add some juice to the season, do that shit at the start of the season, like a long weekend to kick off the season. Have every team in Vegas for a double elimination single game tournament where the winner of the winners bracket faces the winner of the losers bracket or something like that. All wins and losses count towards the teams standings so the games have meaning no matter what.
They have a few arenas there to use plus Raiders new field and soon there will be the A’s new ballpark and they can mix in outdoor games and make things unique. People have wanted to see outdoor NBA games for years, this would be the way to do it.
