i don't like the head to head thing, in combination of game shape and enthusiam management where you have often set prioritieson the long run it is fair, but in this case the opponent in that week become to improtant ...

So i believe the point sbetter represent the overall performance in league.

I don't understand this at all. If you beat someone in the head-to-head matchups, particularly if there's a home and home, then you're the better team and deserve the higher seed.

With so little control over a team's performance in garbage time, I think this is a pretty horrible indicator.

His point is that schedule would become more important and I agree. Also you sometimes couldn't tell who you would be tied with so the effort in the relevant games would be a problem - it could be decided by luck whether you play strong lineup with solid effort or not by a chance (assuming there is notie if the head-to-head would be 1-1, then points differential from those two games logically comes as second criterium).

Managers with better micromanagement are rewarded by current tiebraker, with head-to-heads they wouldn't.

Despite the problematic garbage time yu have pretty much good control over your score (points for and points against).

Does this mean that if an 18-4 beats a 20-2 team twice they should get the seed? No, because the overall performance throughout the season of the 20-2 team was better. I know we are talking about tie-breakers, but the logic is the same with points differential, imo.

Obviously the answer is no. The most important thing is overall win/loss record. The number of points a team wins by is, frankly, insignificant in my opinion. And I realize that's just my opinion.

If the BBs are going to keep point differential as the tiebreaker, then I think it's pretty important that they implement a "run up the score" option.

the other teams have also problems to "destroy" opponents, so it takes on a way fair only the last games become a bit silly. because you stop scoring, before you have the necessary points but this could happen in a head to head comparision too, even when the chanche isn't that high.
