My opinion is that it should be on display somewhere. If not the rafters then have it on display at MSG, I mean its been 52 years since the last championship. Also related to the Cup, a guy on talk radio said it could be improved if the winning team got a draft pick just outside of the lottery. I like that idea, definitely gives the team something to play for.Don't see how this motivates the players. It would suck for the guy at the end of the bench to get cut for a rookie. Wouldn't that be the same issue? Imagine playing your butt off to win and then being packaged with the pick to a losing franchise. I think the key is to motivate the players, not the teams. |

I think the way this is done is just fine. Im not sure most fans really care about it unless their team is in it. Now that knicks were, I can see it. I don't really think its really a big deal league wise but it just adds some interest. The Vegas thing? Word out is league is considering playing at historic college areana like Rupp, Allen, or Cameron. Silver said Europe or Middle east would be logistically not good. Mostly they don't stop the season but for one night. Its not that big an event nor that ambitious. Knick fans showed up in Vegas and it was cool! Lakers drew well year one. Spurs bought in some fans with weird looking garb on. Hey, they had fun. Thats all. IM sure lots of folks like to **** on it. I only watched it becuase it was knicks. |
