At the end of the day whether you play 48, 70, or 82 games the regular season is to separate the the better teams. So I have on problem when the final 16 teams are ready to start. I think playing in the hub city is a bit of a equalizer as there is no travel involved. All that travel takes it toll over a post season, especially in the western conference. It will probably ensure the players get more rest than any other time in history.
