Let us take a break from all the trade rumors and draft pick fest for now! A change of format in the NBA has been made!

So now division winners are not guaranteed the top 4 seeds. It shall be based on team percentage wins!

Now here comes the "Atlantic Division" is the weakest division comments!

Just like the "AFC East" in NFL (even though the NFC South was the most putrid last season) lol.
