[Durant] I don’t want to see 1-16 seeding because I don’t want to see a team have to travel from LA to New Orleans.
杜兰特：我不想看到季后赛对阵按联盟战绩1-16来排，因为我不想看到有球队需要从洛杉矶长途跋涉到新奥尔良。
From the brilliant mind of Kevin Durant on the Pull Up podcast. CJ asked him what he thought about the 1-16 seeding idea and said he didn’t like it because of the travel and that he doesn’t want to see a team have to travel from LA to New Orleans.
来自杜兰特聪明的小脑瓜在《Pull Up》播客节目中的精彩发挥。CJ-麦科勒姆问到他如何看待季后赛对阵按照联盟战绩1-16名来安排这个想法。杜兰特说他不喜欢这样，因为路途太遥远，他不想看到有球队需要从洛杉矶飞去新奥尔良。

Hear me out, I know travel is a huge counterpoint to 1-16 seeding playoffs - BUT how about the NBA works like the WWE during playoffs where every team (1-16) travels together and performs in one venue across the largest cities in the US. This could lead to more interesting storylines, hell in the cell games, and better yet - Ladder match jump balls. Where the ball is hooked up to a wire 20 ft over the court and the teams have to climb a 16 foot ladder in order to retrieve procession. Brilliant.
骑士球迷：我来白活两句，我知道旅行距离是关于季后赛改革的一条重要反方论据，但为什么NBA在季后赛时不效仿下WWE呢？每支球队（1-16名）都一起出行，路线横跨全美几座最大的城市，在那些大城市里打比赛。这样会衍生出许多有趣的故事线，“牢中地狱”型比赛，还有更绝的——爬梯子跳球比赛：球被挂在离地20英尺高的地方，球队需要爬16英尺高的梯子去夺取球权。这样就太完美了。

Rachel Nichols has been on point about this for months: 1-16 playoff seeding will never happen because you don't be able to get one of the Eastern Conference owners to vote their team out of the playoffs (which is functionally what 1-16 seeding would do, given the imbalance of talent between the conferences).
凯尔特人球迷：Rachel Nichols几个月前就已经说到点子上了：1-16名排位的季后赛赛制永远不会出现，因为你不可能说服东部球队老板把自己的球队投出季后赛（这也是1-16名排位季后赛赛制投入使用后将会出现的情况，考虑到东西部实力水平不平衡）。
In a league where you need a 2/3 majority to make something like 1-16 seeding happen, you definitely won't get 5 EC owners to vote against their own interests unless the league is absolutely tanking money (which it is not).
在这个联盟，如果你想改革季后赛赛制，那起码你需要三分之二的老板同意以达成多数赞成通过，但你绝对找不到五位愿意投这种有损自己利益的票的东部球队老板，除非联盟因为季后赛实力不均衡导致亏损很严重（可是并没有）。

I still think the biggest reason not to do 1-16 seeding is TV scheduling. It would lower ratings for teams in both conferences, especially for the earlier rounds. Western Conference teams have just as much of a reason not to want that. Even if the league talent distribution shifts to make the conferences even, I still don't think it will happen.
骑士球迷：我还是觉得1-16排位不可行的最大原因是电视转播安排。这会让东西部的转播率都下降，尤其是第一第二轮。跟东部球队一样，西部球队也同样有理由拒绝这种改革。就算日后联盟的天赋分布重回平衡，东西部实力五五开了，我也不觉得季后赛会改革。

为啥转播率会下降啊？
[–][CLE] Mark Price2mnykitehs 577 指標 9小時前
The TV scheduling right now is optimized to have games as close to prime time as possible for the team's local market. If Golden State where to play Miami in the first round, a game at 5:30pm Eastern Time would be good for Miami fans, but a lot of Golden State fans wouldn't be able to watch since it would be at 2:30pm in the middle of the work day. If a game were at 8pm Pacific Time, it would good for GS fans, but maybe a lot of Miami fans wouldn't want to stay up until almost 2am because they have to work the next day.
骑士球迷：现在的转播安排是最优化的结果，尽可能把比赛排在黄金时段，以照顾球队的本土市场。如果勇士第一轮打热火，那么美东时间下午五点半开始对迈阿密球迷来说是很理想的，但一大批勇士球迷那个时间看不了球，因为那会儿是太平洋时间下午两点半，还没下班呢。如果比赛在太平洋时间的晚八点开始，这对勇士球迷就很好。但可能很多热火球迷不太会想熬到接近凌晨两点，毕竟第二天还得上班呢。
A lot of TV ratings in the playoffs come from increased viewership of more casual fans and a lot of casual fans aren't willing to take off work or lose sleep to watch a game.
季后赛的收视率通常因那些平常不怎么看球的人开始看球而增加，但这些人一般是不会为了看比赛而耽误上班和睡觉的。

Forget 1-16. Travel is too insane to be practical.
Just run it the same except reseed the Final 4.
So this year it would have been Houston/Cavs and Boston/Warriors in the semi-finals.
By reseeding the Final 4 you will most likely get the 2 best teams in the Finals most years.
1-16排位就别想了。旅途太长，不现实。
就按照现在这么打，不过最后四强再按战绩重排。
这样的话今年半决赛本应该是火箭vs骑士和凯尔特人vs勇士。
四强重排可以确保总决赛对决的两支队伍基本上就是本赛季最强的两支。

That would’ve actually worked so well these past few years. Houston vs Warriors going to game 7 in the NBA Finals would’ve been so nice. Would’ve had a huge impact on the off season.
