I am firmly against this new trend of playing the same team back-to-back

    I feel OKC is just a way to set up the sentence for when anyone lands.

    "OKC, what had happened was..."

    I dig it, like a mini playoff series.

    Baseball plays the same team sometimes 4 days in a row. The playoffs also has the same teams playing each other in a short amount of time in the same city.

    The regular season schedule is 82 games and nothing is going to change that. Our lega should be fresher, making for a more entertainment our next game.

    I know their season is like twice as long but MLB has been doing these mini-series for decades and no one is complaining. The fact is that it makes sense, especially for a team like ours that is so far away from its division rivals. I think it has its advantages and disadvantages game to game but it seems to equal out.

    I agree. You're 100% correct.

    Except that would also result in reduced revenue, and neither the players or the owners want that.
