My proposal on how to fix the NBA

Here's how I would fix the NBA to win back the viewers it lost over the past decade:

  • Allow teams to play more physically on defense like they did before 2005

  • No more wacky jersey designs, return to the style we had in the early 90s

  • Do what the NFL did and split each conference into four divisions each, making divisions matter again

  • Put the NBA Finals logos on the court again.

  • Put the Playoff logos and Conference Finals logos on the courts again

  • Put the NBA Finals logos for each year on the front of jerseys

  • No more jersey ads, this isn't soccer.

  • Get rid of the Play-In tournament, the playoffs were fine enough as they were

  • Get rid of the NBA Cup, absolutely pointless and ridiculous

Simply put:

ABANDON THE GIMMICKS.

That's it. Just return to playing pure basketball. That is what will save the NBA going forward.
