Fair enough. And you are correct, the NBA is much more of a global product now than it used to be. I understand your counterpoint about the market issue, and you do make good points, but I do think its fair to bring up. I'm not saying that I agree with the sentiment - its something I've heard and seen debated, I just know its going to come up in debates. The former commissioner David Stern, made a point of maximizing market potential. Despite the game being more international, the big bucks are still at home in the United States. All of that being said, I'm still with you on this, I would like to see changes to NBA playoffs as well, just playing devil's advocate and presenting some of the counterpoints I've heard out there. Thanks again for the good info

I completely get it. It wasn't necessarily directed at you, but at people who use that argument as a reason to hold back the league from change.
