It's a great idea in terms of finals and what options teams 1-12 have.
But on the flipside, it creates an awful scenario for teams that finish 13-18.
Team 13 cannot make the finals even if they were close to Team 12 after round 17 and win all of their remaining games.
The rest of them essentially enter a lottery for draft picks where there would be no incentive to win.
The bottom 6 teams may as well just go on holiday after round 17.
Interested to hear how you think that might unfold, OP?
