We all know somes teams go on tanking mode to pile up money, and that's ok, but I think that we could rise the competition if teams who qualifie to playoffs receive a prize money, in a system similar to the cup. Here's an example... receiving 50,000 for each stage:

50,000 if qualified for playoff
50,000 if qualified for conference final
50,000 for division final
50,000 for division winner.

In the current system only finalists receive prize money, depending with de division. What do you think about this? Will increase competition in regular season?

Teams in 6 & 7 th place also receive attendance revenue in playouts, right? And problably the team ending 6th place will receive more than a team ending in 3 rd and 4th place if they are eliminated in first round... Dont seems fair.

Well, the team at 5-th place stays in league for sure and makes more profit than two teams which finish play off in first round because of salaries.

But do you know how much it affects the income of next season?


Do you?

I have never seen any evidence for that. I will very happily finish fifth year, instead of an guaranteed first round exit (that will screw your fan survey too).

By losing the last playoff game you screw up your TV game, last game and with a bit of bad luck your rival game category.

If that adds to a better fan survey overall I'd be surprised.

I doubt it. The fan survey has to carry over in some form. If you mess up your overall rating it would make sense you mess up the "last season" part of the next seasons survey
