@Wacky D you might as well change this to the official WNBA thread
so hold up, I'm watching NBATV and the Tulsa Shock relocated to Dallas
and they're called the Dallas Wings
and this is the new playoff format
Round 1: #5 vs. #8, #6 vs. #7 (single elimination)
Round 2: #3 vs lowest seed, #4 vs higher seed (single elimination)
Rounds 3 & 4: best of 5, 1 and 2 seed versus winners in previous round
imagine the fukkery if the NBA pulled this

- The number of playoff rounds increases from three to four. The top two seeds receive a bye to the semifinals (third round), and the third and fourth seeds receive a bye to the second round.
- Teams will be re-seeded after each postseason round.
- The first and second rounds are single elimination
. In the first round, the No. 5 seed hosts the No. 8 seed and the No. 6 seed hosts the No. 7 seed. In the second round, the No. 3 seed hosts the lowest-seeded first-round winner and the No. 4 seed hosts the other first-round winner.
- The semifinals feature a best-of-five format, with the No. 1 overall seed playing the lowest remaining seed and the No. 2 overall seed meeting the remaining team. The Nos. 1 and 2 seeds will host Games 1, 2 and 5, and the lower-seeded teams will host Games 3 and 4 in their respective series. The WNBA Finals remain best-of-five and follow the same 2-2-1 format.
So if I'm understanding this rightRound 1: #5 vs. #8, #6 vs. #7 (single elimination)
Round 2: #3 vs lowest seed, #4 vs higher seed (single elimination)
Rounds 3 & 4: best of 5, 1 and 2 seed versus winners in previous round
