Winner of the 7-8 Play in will only get 1 ball. All other play in teams will get 2.
Adam Silver also has new powers to adjust odds or take picks to combat tanking.
This passed 29-1 with only the Grizzlies voting against.

I agree. If this is successful in preventing tanking, someone still has to finish at the bottom. I guess it's a slight relief that they can't drop below 12, but it still feels a bit like kicking a man when he's down.
