The "NBL Cup" is a stupid idea, playing regular games isn't.
Cramming the entire league into one great covid cesspool, is a stupid idea. Playing regular games in "safe" cities isn't.
Neutral games will attract minimal crowds and lose the teams money, it makes far more sense to play those games where they can draw a reasonable paying crowd.
The Breakers are screwed regardless. They are not going to get home games anytime in the foreseeable future. If that changes later, then the NBL can try to balance things up.
When we started this discussion months ago, WA had hard borders with all states, and at that time we accepted that the Wildcats would need to play only away games. That situation has now changed. Welcome to the real world.
This season is going to be a running hodge-podge of shifting fixtures, and games played when and where they can be.
If you can't tolerate that without whining and sooking, then I suggest you bail now, because it's only going to get worse
