Ban @trojanfan12?

LOL.

Yea it's a very bad idea for baseball to expand any more.

For the NBA, very few 7-10 seeds can really beat a decent 1 seed so its just really more games.

Nope.

Vegas and Seattle should get teams.

The lowest seed ever to win a championship is a 6, and it has happened once. It is almost always a 1-3 seed.

And that 6th seed was the 95 Rockets who were the returning champs

Best team name in baseball.

only took seattle 7 years to replace that team, what's taking so long for the NBA?


(And good-god, you're old! )

NBA playoffs has always been way too much basketball.

Now it's just ridiculous. They should go back to the 1st round being best of 5.

How? It doesn't change anything

The playoffs always started on Saturday and that did not change with the play-in games. Only thing that changed is that instead of the regular season ending on Wednesday, it now ends on Sunday

It's just too many games period.

MLB is 7 game series because literally 4 teams used to make it. And that's what started the 7 games I imagine.

I mean like I said ... it doesn't hurt anything, if you don't want to watch don't watch, but it doesn't add anything either.

MLB didn’t even have a LCS until 1969.

And the LCS was best of five until 1985.

The first WS was best of nine. A few other times they used that format. Including the Black Sox thrown series in 1919.

Did they ever consider best of 15?
