The NBA’s new In-Season Tournament has taken some getting used to — from players, coaches and fans alike — but it’s gotten off to a promising start, adding a bit more juice to what would normally be regular-season games without much interest.

We’ll soon have a better idea if it’s going to turn into something more beginning this week, with the quarterfinals having begun Monday and the NBA Cup title game happening Saturday in Las Vegas.

Most people around the NBA have gotten over the initial confusion and apathy surrounding the tournament and have paid attention to the results — with players, obviously, most interested in the $500,000 prize for each member of the NBA Cup-winning team.

It’s also up for debate whether every team is going to take NBA commissioner Adam Silver’s brainchild as seriously as others.
