Teams eams usually aren't eliminated from the playoffs until late March or early April. So the Gold Plan wouldn't change much. The 'benefit' is the worst 4 or 5 teams in the league would have 6-12 so games at the tail end of the season where they're trying to win rather than lose.

On the negative side, it would kill the trade deadline.

Another negative is it's really gimmicky and complicated. Extremely online stats nerds would love it. 90 per cent of fans would be baffled by the whole thing.
