Merge the conferences and take the best 16 teams. Seed 1-16.

1) Warriors vs 16) OKC

9) SPURS vs 8) Mavs


4) Rockets vs 13) Suns

12) Cavs vs 5) Blazers

** Bracket Splits

2) Hawks vs 15) Pelicans

10) Wizards vs 7) Raptors


3)Grizzles vs 14) Bucks

6) Clippers vs 11) Bulls


That shit would be fucking nuts....That would be terrible bracket for the Spurs.... But it really makes things interesting. Thoughts?

no. it's too random assuming you don't change the regular season schedule. wins in the East aren't equivalent to wins in the West. You could potentially end up with the higher seeds playing much better teams than teams below them.

This format is way better then the current one...the East playoffs are a joke. This will bring more parody to the league

Considering the NBA champion almost always has a top 5 record I don't really see the point

I just heard you pitch this idea live on the Grind on the ticket. They think silver is open to any idea.
