This is such a massive, unqualified win for the league that I will be shocked if it isn't included in the bargaining language of the next cba.

So why not expand the playoffs to all teams? Why not get ads on jerseys? Why not go to 92 game seasons? Think of all the delicious moola.

Edit: I don't think the players did it for free. Correct me if I'm wrong but that doesn't sound right.
