I guess Georgia could simply decline the invite for the Conference Championship?

There was a point where almost every playoff team in the nba west was better than almost every team in the nba east. Why do people think the best two teams need to play in the championship? Do you think the Red Sox and Yankees in the 90s or the cowboys and 49ers in the 80s should have played each other in the super bowl? Or the patriots colts in the 2000s? No. Because that’s not how sports playoffs work and for good reason. No one ever complained that the 2nd best team year after year wasn’t making the championship game.
There needs to be an expanded playoff. And ideally two conference teams always end up in the same bracket with the conference loser as a wild card. Georgia deserves to be in a playoff. But let’s stop putting inner conference games in the championship.
