It's funny but this a legitimate issue, Silver wants dudes to play hard for his vanity project and 500K. But they also have extra travel and an extra game other teams didn't deal with. Tweaks have to be made
Lakers took a 20 minute flight and played 2 blowout games :hhh:

I think the main tweak is killing off the confetti and cigar celebration. Present a trophy and leave it at that

Dont colleges literally put up banners for a 6 game tournament called the NCAA tournament? Whats the issue?
This is disingenuous as hell. The NCAA Tournament crowns the National Champion; it’s the equivalent of winning The Finals.

This is more akin to hanging a banner for winning the Battle 4 Atlantis or some other holiday tournament.

This is a middle of the pack team, most of the teams in the west are on the same level field. None of them look like contenders to be honest.
The Clippers are clearly the best team in the NBA talent wise and will win the NBA Championship this season

To be fair the pros are supposed to be a bit above amateur stuff. Buttttttttt

This is at least 60% why.

Buttttt, it was a Pro tournament, not an amateur tournament.

And yes, I feel most of it is because of Bron as well.

The Pacers are a garbage team who just got hot at the right time. Bums won't even make th playoffs

Lakers are an average NBA team as well

How is this different then the Heat getting hot last year in the playoffs? Hell, they almost lost their play-in game. Do they not have a Eastern Conf champ banner up? They were average last year.
