Quote:Between fan, media and reported league proposals on how NBA Commissioner Adam Silver might format a return to the suspended NBA season, one of the most repeated scenarios involves a 20 team playoff system. This system includes the teams that currently hold the 16 playoff positions plus the New Orleans Pelicans, Portland Trailblazers, San Antonio Spurs, and Sacramento Kings.

If they do this and I was the 9th or 10th place team in the East like the Wizards or Hornets, then I'd be ticked off.

The 9th or 10th place team should have taken care of business during the season then, no one be to ticked off at but themselves.

The 9th thru 12th placed teams in the West also with losing records would be in this version of the POs. No reason why the 9th and 10th placed teams in the East shouldn’t be pissed.

It's likely to be 22 teams. 9, 10, 11 and 12 teams from the West and the 9th and 10th from the East.

That makes sense

Looks like it's going to be:
East (1 team): Washington
West 5 (teams): New Orleans, Sacramento, Portland, San Antonio and Phoenix

22 teams, 13 in the west. Teams play 8 games. If at the end of 8 games the 8 seed has less than a 4 game lead then it's a play in for the 8 seed.

Looks like that is what will pass tomorrow. They Zioned it for sure.

I do too but it's a joke that their cut off is 4 games.

Just designed to put New Orleans and Zion in.

Probably will rip Ja out of ROY as well.

I hope the Grizz come out fired up

RE: Will the Grizzlies get screwed?
This is a really fair scenario for the Grizz. Gonna be hella tough for both Blazers and Pelicans to overtake the 3.5 game deficit and shut the Grizz out completely.

If the Grizz go .500 over 8 games, the 9 and 10 teams would both have to go 8-0 to shut Memphis out of a play-in tourney. Hell Memphis could go 3-5 over the next 8 and still have a shot at getting the 8 seed.

Most likely we're looking at Grizz vs. Pels in the 8/9 play-in, where Memphis only needs to win 1 of 2.

True but we could use Edwards or Wiseman.

Wiseman? Pshhhh I don’t want a quitter playing for my Grizz.

Probably doesn't matter anyway, as lightning would have to strike twice.
