Larger pools of playoff teams only reduces the value of regular season meaning. It sucks across all sports.

Just get to the point where every team makes the playoffs. Then you realize that is what the regular season is. No need to play 80 games so 75% of the teams can keep playing.


But there are only 12 spots which are guaranteed. Which guarantees that 8-12 teams will have to compete at the end of the season just to make it in. And last season one of the play in teams made the Finals. Which only enhanced to concept.

If mediocre is in the playoffs, then the season needs to be shortened. One or the other, you can't have both without, in the long run, hurting the sport.


Mediocre (and often bad) teams always makes it to the NFL Playoffs and it has never hurt that sport.

You might want to check the percentages between NFL and NBA. And I would be the first to point out 8 divisions and the possibility of 8-9 team making it is a weakness in the NFL structure.


None of this nullifies the point. Mediocre teams routinely make the playoffs in the NFL and no one ever believes that it water downs anything whenever that they do.
