Just looking at the trophy ladder and it's quite clear Plymouth have the easiest route to the semi final where they will play London.
Both clubs are owned by the league
While London don't have necessarily an easy route, on budget they certainly do and Plymouth have an amatuer/local league team in the first round.
It could all be a coincidence but it smells a bit fishy to me

If that’s the case can’t they just give them a bit more money so they can stay at Plymouth Pavilions? |

And if rumours are true the league are already financially supporting them

Was about to say the same thing tallerman! Problem is they didn't follow through and rig a Knicks championship to make it worthwhile.
Obviously the NBA has been rigging the Knicks for decades, it's the only way to explain their continuing success 🤣
The best one for me was the anti-rig. When the NBA owned the Hornets franchise and Stern vetoed the trade that would have brought Chris Paul to the Lakers, because he knew it was a bum deal for the Hornets. So it was an anti-rig in the sense it hurt the Lakers, one of the marquee teams but I've always felt Stern did the right thing as it was a crap deal for the Hornets. Laker fans cried for years about rigging over that.
