Here are a few ideas to spice it up:
-
8 games instead of 4 spread across Nov - December, home and home each team
-
Tournament starts before new year, finals in the first week of January
-
Finals held at home of the team with the better record or +/-
-
Final 4 teams, guarantee entry into play-in/playoffs
This will create added excitement and will keep it lasting into the new year!
Than from this, we have a month to look forward to All Star weekend. Than after that, the NBA Playoffs.
What do yall think?
head 2 head should not be the primary tiebreaker. No round robin system uses this. No one game in group play should mean more than any other.
Two wild cards from Each Conference advance, and you play a second 4-game-round of group play.
Top two teams of each conference second round advance to knock out round.
Semifinal: 2nd in East plays 1st in West, and 1st in East plays 2nd in West.
If a game finishes tied, there is no overtime. Instead the game goes to a 3 point shootout.
5 open shots from the top of the arc for each team. Tell me you wouldn’t watch that.
