I gave up on sports when they started taking knees, but when I followed basketball something like 2/3’s of the teams made the playoffs and if that’s still true, then why even bother with a regular season.
That occurred to me too. I don’t really follow basketball.
But I can see that considering so many teams make the playoffs, regular season games just don’t matter. So I can imagine basketball fans tune in for the playoffs ,and don’t even care about the regular season
