Even those players whose teams get to the final four.

The playoffs, along with exhibition games, is where the owners make hay. No player salaries for the owners to pay in either situation.

Too big a risk, possible illness as well as family disruption for the players. Doesn’t make any sense.

Isn't this about the TV contracts for next year (and beyond) though? It's never been about this season as far as I understand.
