    The play-in is a stress test for teams on the rise. It breeds roster continuity and energizes fanbases. It spotlights diverse markets without detracting from the title race. It engineers moments in a sport defined by moments One of the best things the NBA has done in my lifetime

    1. Twice as much space to cover 2. Same number of players to cover it 3. More fast movements on more possessions due to 1 and 2 4. More broken bodies entering the league due to 1-3 + the relentless youth circuit. Until you account for those factors, the rest is talk show noise.
