Playoffs need to be best of three first round. 5 second round then 7. Easy

Worst idea ever

Don't like excitement? That is exactly what NBA playoffs is lacking.

Just because this year has two juggernauts doesn't mean that other years aren't exciting all the way through. Best of seven is the best way to make sure the better team wins. There are plenty of first round series that are great. And nothing is more exciting in sports than a game seven.

People are looking at this years playoffs and being like every year is like this even though it isn't.

What is the proplem with first round best of three. Best team should win. If other team wins it might add some excitement.

Do you not read posts responding to you? He already answered why he thought best of three wasn't good. Here, I'll even quote it for you in hopes you read it this time.

They ended up being the number one seed in the east. Cleveland is up 3 games to 0 with a differential of about 1000 points.

Neither Cleveland or the warriors have lost a game and are about to face each other in the finals. It's literally going to be the greatest finals ever.

Cleveland is only up 2-0 but the series is already over with IT out. Even though it wasn't like he did anything the game and a half he played.

Finals should be epic even though the Warriors should roll with how stacked they are.

Three games isn't enough for the best team to win? Ask any coach of a one and done competition. NBA fans its not the 90s anymore. Less teams back then. Every club had an all star.

Because any team could get lucky and win two games, short of a few series each year. Just look at the Celtics-Bulls series - the Bulls won the first two games but then lost four straight. Three games isn't a sufficient sample size to determine the better team.

I knew the Celtics Bulls series would come up. The Bulls may put up a better fight. How do YOU know.

My point.

We can't truly know if a team that lost a 7-game series would do better later in the playoffs than the team they lost to, so the NBA should knock the first round of the playoffs down to a best-of-3 series?

Is that your point?

No the team that won. Why the blowback about first round 3 games? Do you work for the NBA? It's all about the money I know

True, but I still think 7 is a good amount of games for a series. Not 3, not 5, not 9.

I'd be up for a 3 game series, each game means a lot more

Look at the NFL, they have 1 game and its the best playoffs in all of sports, I'm not sure 1 game would work in the NBA but less games means each game is more important
