BTW the bottom of the west playoffs is why I hate the play in game.
We are going to have 2 teams likely in the play in game that are really bad. One team likely to be about 8 games under .500 and the other 11-13 games under .500
Teams like that shouldn't get rewarded.
What they did in the bubble actually makes more sense than this. I forgot what was # of games back it was but to me finishing 9th/10th shouldn't automatically get you in a play in game. I think you should neeed to be at least 5 games within 8 to get in the play in game situation and 10th shouldn't qualify. Should be 8th vs 9th if 9th finish within 5 games of 8th place and you need to beat 8th twice to qualify. If 9th/10th ends in a tie then they play in a 1 game playoffs to face 8th.
No need to reward teams who finished 10 or 12 games under .500
