Unless you have some serious market pull... I don't think criticizing the refs gets you better treatment. Everyone try this... go home and be really critical of your significant other... see if you get better or worse treatment.

This doesn't necessarily apply in the heat of the battle like when Luka, Dray, etc are working the refs... but bitching after the fact I am not sure is super productive.
 
Memphis beat the Clips today. Wes had 4 points 11 assists. For Memphis Santi Aldama shined off the bench. Why do we care? He is the player Jared Butler was traded for. The guy is 7 feet tall and has a decent 3 point touch. Another brilliant move by the pre DA front office. Aldama is averaging about 9 points 5 boards.
 
I’ve always hated that the system is set up to basically force players to test free agency to get an adequate contract instead of being able to extend before you have to trade someone. Feel like teams should have an advantage to extend their players instead of forcing them to hit the market to maximize their earnings.

Healthy FA market is a cornerstone of parity in pro sports. If keeping your best players was always easy the FA market would dry up and it would emphasize the value of draft too much.
 
I really don't understand how the in season tournament is supposed to work when we need every team to play the same amount of games.

No we don’t, and that has never been a thing (hi: the post-season).

Additionally, there is the play-in tournament.

I don’t know how it would work, but it’s single elimination. I would hope they drop the regular season number of games to help accommodate as there are already too many games.
