Please Fix the NBA Playoffs

Watching the slow slaughter of the weaker playoff teams may make money for the League and some teams, but it's not necessarily good basketball.

Two options:

1. Condense the league to 20 teams and keep the playoffs the same. It'll still be long, but now the talent pool is better. Or...

2. Redo the playoffs either by only letting the top six teams from each Conference in (with such a diluted pool, you really want the best of the best) or by changing the format of the playoffs to something quicker or more entertaining: First Round = One-and-Done; Second Round = Best of Three; Conference Finals = Best of Five and NBA Finals = Best of Seven.

But since money's at stake here, I won't hold my breath. It's going to be up to the GMs to put together better, more competitive teams.
