that post was actually ages ago and if i remembered correctly we were able to deminish seats for a period of time a couple seasons back (cant remember exactly when).
But what I am saying is that at the time when the soft cap was implemented and the max number of courtside seats and luxery boxes were set, we had no idea how the attendance will go. So I decided to not diminish any seats at that time with so much unknown.
Now after going through a full season, we can kind of see the attendance pattern and some of us might want to make some adjustments to the current seating arrangements. I know this might only affect the larger clubs with arena capacity near the cap but I dont see why we should be disadvantaged because of the changes made by BBs.
