The current ABA playoff format is buried in this article on the Admirals:
http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/yb/141129614
or
the ABA once again this year is waiting until the last minute (or later) to decide how to run a post-season.
Neither scenario paints a rosy picture of the league (which goes without saying).
BTW - love this line from the same article:
He may be right, but there is no info available from the league to confirm or deny it.

So - either an owner of a competitive team is completely unawareGlisson said the ABA has not decided on a playoff format this season, but that teams could host playoff games. Last season, an eight-team, single-elimination tournament was played in Nashville, Tenn.

BTW - love this line from the same article:
Really? Prove it."We're the No. 1 team in the ABA for attendance," Glisson said. "It's been nice to have that fan support."
He may be right, but there is no info available from the league to confirm or deny it.

I never said the ABA had the greatest numbers regarding retention of teams. OldSchoolBaller (neither did we )

Apparently no team owner has yet stepped forward and offered to pay the bills for the ABA's annual postseason mess. Of course, last year an owner stepped forward to pay for most of the bills, but didn't actually pay them.

More second-hand info about the ABA post-season:

In case anybody was curious - like OldFoolBaller.

So, the playoffs allegedly start in about a week.* The New York Red Riders' scheduled home games on Friday and Saturday at the Chemung County YMCA were canceled. The games weren't rescheduled because the American Basketball Association playoffs begin March 7. The Red Riders will host a first-round playoff game.
Anyone with tickets to either of this weekend's games can use them during the Red Riders' game against the New York City Thunder at 7 p.m. March 6 at the YMCA.

[quote=""psbf""]I don't know where you got your info on the Phantoms, but their record is actually 6-4(Not that it really matters in this league, but they were to play Lake Mich this week, but the Admirals do not have Pgh on their schedule for that date).[/quote]
The post with the standings is three weeks old.
Doesn't matter, anyway - Joe is making $*!& as he goes along. There will be no 'seeding' process; those who can host, will host, regardless of record. Those that can play, will play - regardless of record.
Don't be surprised to see one or more of the 'travel' teams admitted as some sort of 'reward' for their efforts this year (read: to fill out a bracket).
And not one shred of news from the league website since January 14.
Tell me again what makes this league so appealing to new investors?
