  16. Aye I aint tryna be that guy but why tf they have pentagrams as illustrations of how this thing works, like either someone fucked up in marketing or the NBA are sum satanists

  17. This video feels like a parody 😂
    I still don't know why I care about some regular season games where rich people can win more money 🤷

  21. I wonder how the players will respond to this tourney. There definitely has to be monster incentives for the buy in of the players & their teams. Also curious about the level of intensity and how these players will approach the game.

  22. This is so dumb!!! Does the winning team get something that'll help in th playoffs or at least do the better teams get higher pay the higher you make it in the tournament 🤔

  27. so the prize is just a trophy? why in the world would anyone want to play extra games on top of an 82 game season for a trophy that has no meaning? was something left out? i’m just curious.

  29. What is the consensus on how NBA players feel about having to play & be prepared for more time out of the year for this? Don't they deserve a break? Yes, they for the most part love the game, but having their schedules is challenging already. I'd imagine that some players do not want to play this much. I do wonder.

  30. This is a fantastic idea and hopefully will spawn some effort from players in the regular season.

    A great addition would be a super cup at the beginning of the next season between previous season winners, the NBA Champion and the NBA Cup Champion. Learn from other places take the best and apply it. This is a great step forward.

  33. Pointless tournament. So you lose you go home? Id be ready to lose just get more rest as a true contender. No reason playing extra games for the in season tournament champion lol

  35. Such a pointless tournament. No real contender is worried an “NBA Cup” lame AF. There’s no incentive but potential injury for playing extra games

  36. How is this gonna affect the playoffs? Are we still having regular seasons? Will there be a seperate category for in season mvp? So many questions…

    Still looks dope though…

  38. You know at first I believed most teams wouldnt care to win these games over any other regular season games but then I remembered the narratives. A night dedicated to these games means the media and fans will dedicate the next day to discussing performances in a "playoff" game. I already can see a season being stained by a narrative that a team performing poorly in these specific games and what it might be foreshadowing when it comes to the actual playoffs.
