Finding these players available for that limited number of games is what would stop the clubs. Also the fact that they have to have an injured player to start off with to be able to replace them.

Yes Nostradamus Isaac, you know that's what I would have said. I was trying to point out the different positions the 2 teams are in which gives an advantage to one and not the other. A fairer solution would have been to set a deadline date rather than the number of games.

Is it a deliberate ploy on the NBL's part to schedule Sydney with less games played and more to go at this late stage? This gives them the opportunity to replace an injured player and still qualify to play in the finals. If this happened to Adelaide at the same time, it would have already been too late to try and sign on a replacement player. The scheduling of games have certainly gone in Sydney's favour. They should not be given this advantage this late in the season just because they are lucky enough to still have enough games to play.
