this is a really nice development. kudos to silver if it happens.

Glad to hear it. Other leagues need to follow suit as well.
I keep hearing talk of just taking the top 16 game in the league, not the top 8 in each conference; however I have to imagine the teams' travel logistics will hold that up a bit.
