I think it’s the best way to motivate players to play well. It would incentivize even the older players who wouldn’t care as much about the money and would rather avoid injury.

Doesn’t mess up the 82 game format or record books and also provides some extra cushion for elite teams who may get injured later into the season.

What do y’all think?

    I mean, if you are a real fan of NBA basketball you should be for this.

    Would give us true competitive basketball in the fall/early winter.

      We already have truly competitive basketball, October-Jan is the most competitive section of the NBA seasons.

      Winds down through february and until the play ins were created, it was just teams preparing for the playoffs otherwise. Maybe 1-2 teams trying to fight for a spot.

      Now with the play ins, you have majority of teams either fighting to keep themselves 6th seed or above or teams fighting to get into the 7-10 spots. Leaving all but maybe 4 teams who aren’t really competing.
