Also open to some other type of game 6 configuration. Not sure what would be best. The idea was to keep top teams more in control of their own destiny instead of relying on the #1 team to be beaten by someone else.
For what it's worth when I proposed this format, I also suggested this tiebreaking rule in the last series. In theory, we were playing under those tiebreaking rules. Maybe we say we are still playing under those rules as a way to just end this discussion?
I'm not sure that it is better than more wins, but there was something in place for the last series.
