Smart changes - teams tanking for 5th was getting a bit silly.

As it is, in the ABBL at least 5th is probably still slightly better financially than a 1st round playoff exit (assuming an average wage and attendance), but getting into the playoffs gives the chance of going further, so that should keep people honest.

I find that hard to believe last season with Whitebeard being all conquering and all.

"CHANCE" what if WB's starting 5 foul or injure out in the first quarter?
then you're good to go right Koopatroopa?

5th place should never be more financially beneficial than finishing 1st to 4th.

It's a good change.


Not saying it isn't a good change; just don't like it. :-)

i like it. people aiming for 5th over 4th or 3rd is wrong. it is only 50% aswell. not as if it is the whole thing

Yeah but I look at it from the other side: trying to avoid relegation and make it to 5th

It is a great change. I made 3rd last season and was knocked out 1st final game. Costs me over 150k more then I got in ticket sales to play that game. Had I thrown a couple of games I would have more money in the bank.
Change is a great one. Only change I would of made was teams in finals pay half salary for each game they play that week. And don't charge 5th anything.

I agree with everyone this is a positive change. Slightly bad for he team who ends up in 2nd with a tough 3rd place team that knocks them out but really it is trivial and overall this is for the better.
