David do like I do, build your postseason into the regular season.


This is what I would do. Play the schedule out until game 140 has been played.
Then for games 140-145 reset the schedule so team 4 plays 1 and 3 plays 2 the next 6 games, teams that had to unschedule games just schedule games between them.
Then games 146-154 I would schedule now 8 games between 1-2. If the team now in 3 position is less than 8 games out (likely) then schedule 8 games between 3-4, if number 5 is 8 games out then 5 can play 6.


Every team will still play 154 games, but the playoffs are in the regular season, every win means something, and trust me, when you get down to the 6 or 8 game final set of a season and a team is 1 game back, those games down the stretch are fantastic...


no need for a playoff, just a little bit of schedule tweeking after, in say your case, game 140
