Seems maybe this is something that might need to be looked at before next season's playoffs. Playoff games should be sold out or close to selling out.

He must be charging diamonds for his seats cause i almost had full attanedance and he has 800 less. and still manages to get 3-4 times more than i had.

numbers don't tell you the distribution of seats.. .he could have had a very front loaded (more boxs than bleachers setup)

we can't make playoff games sold out... it would mess the whole economic model up... they should have increased demand and i think they do.. but sales aren't insensitive to price anymore.

Well he has same amount of seatings as i have. and charges the same for it. even if he had more front seats filled he couldn't get like 40k more out of it with 800 less attendance. Doesn't really make sense to me.

Don't forget about the revenue sharing in the playoffs.

I guess you just need to bump up the demand some more...playoffs games, should, at worst, be very, very close to selling out. In real life, it's terribly rare for a team to not sell out their playoff games.

When you talk about playoff games being sold out, I assume you're talking about the NBA. Think about all of the other leagues in the US (for instance). I have no idea what the lower leagues are (CBA or something?), but I would be surprised if they all sold out consistently.

Ok but his point is that it should be sold out.

The way the fan support works in BB rotates around the standings in a division (the main factor not the only one). So you would expect the playoffs to be packed out with fans.
