Man, I love March Madness! You forget just how much energy and excitement there is in these games! I’ve loved watching these first two days of games!
I have been realizing how little each NBA game means to the players/teams compared to these games. In my continual quest to think of ways to make the NBA better I had the idea of making 2 single elimination tournaments that all the teams would play in during the season. There could be big prizes for players and teams for winning them. Think prize money, moving up the draft order, luxury tax exemptions, trade exception, etc. How much fun would those be to watch? It wouldn’t make you the NBA champion, but I bet each would become almost as prestigious very quickly.
I hope you are enjoying this tournament as much as I am!
