A player must have been purchased before the start of your final regular-season game in order to be eligible for the playoffs.


Seems like this should be moved forward -- I mean, the NBA trade deadline is about 2/3 of the way through the season, not before the last game.

I'm pretty sure that, while the trade deadline is ~2 months before the playoffs start in the NBA, teams don't have to set their rosters until a few days before the playoffs. I think that they can sign free agents and whatnot up until that latter deadline.
