Draymond Green says the Warriors will win the championship

slow down there mate

someone has to inform him that they have to make the PLAY-INS first

how many teams participate in post-regular season games nowadays?

Quote from selfmate

the NBA has two divisions - East and West

the top 6 teams of each division automatically qualify for the playoffs (12 teams total)

then the teams ranked 7-10 partake in the play in tournament of each division (4 in each division - 8 total)

So basically 20 teams still can win a title after regular season. I find it a bit of weird.

they have a chance but the chance ain't good

the only team from the playins to even make to the finals was the Miami Heat in 2022/2023

also the playin tournament was only introduced recently like within the last 5 years

I get it, this is why it was something new for me then. I mean if league would have 36 teams then it would make more sense. Btw I hope that they will add two new teams soon but in same time I'm sad that they don't want to open proper European conference.
