The In Season Tournament is very confusing (alien.top)

For how badly the NBA seems to be trying to push this in season tournament, it's insanely confusing.

I can't find the standings for it on ESPN anywhere, first off. Second, I thought the tournament started last week: the Lakers have gone like 2-2 last 4 games, but I checked NBA.com and their in season tournament group record is 1-0. How? Which one of their games was the tournament game? On ESPN the subtext on every game has said "group play."

How do we know which upcoming games are part of the tournament and which are normal reg season games? Did anyone tell us how the groups were decided? What the F is this.

You would spend less time finding the answers to all of these questions than you did typing this post out.

How are you not able to find the rankings?

It's on the ESPN standings page and on the right hand side it says "In season tournament" Like it's right there?

Tournament games are played on tournament days. The rest of your questions have been explained ad nauseum for the past 3-4 months.

Is this a troll post? Under standings in espn there is a tab for in season tournament.

[–] NoEnvironment69420@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

abnormal court = tournament

normal court= regular season

The only thing that is confusing about the In-Season Tournament is why do some fans find it confusing?

Good grief, the stupidity of some of you... Fucking tragedy how many people lack basic reading skills.

Honestly everyone should stop calling this guy dumb.

The tournament should be very, very easy to understand if they want to market it well. Should t have to take googling, and it should follow the expectations of the consumer

yall just slow at this point

[–] pikumiku9@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

There are only two reasons someone wouldn’t understand it.

1: They are a idiot

2: They are lazy

This all makes perfect sense if you watch professional wrestling

[–] Hendo8888@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago
