2019-2020 NBA Season Thread Basketball • Page 758

i will say, it'll be nice to have the NBA in place of baseball in late summer/fall bc they can't even think about getting their shit together

 

29-1 vote in favor lol. who was the one team?!

 

Knicks 100%

 

it was portland

 

oh wow

 

Awesome

 

Dame really does not want to play haha

 

Wow, was expecting mid December at the earliest for opening

 

just make it christmassssss

 

going right into training camp 4 weeks after ending the finals (if it goes to game 7) is gonna be rough

 

ugh but we're gonna have basketball basically nonstop for the next year bless us all truly

 

That’s all assuming they don’t shut it down again after two games

 

lol very true

 

I assume they don’t want the weird rustiness of the opening week to affect the Christmas games

I guess this shouldn’t be too surprising. By December 1st there’ll be eight teams who haven’t played a competitive basketball game in 9 months, too.

 

That's uh, an ambitious timeline

 

Lol Dolan looking for a distraction quick

 

I'm confused by the training camp timeline. Is it saying camp is going to take place from June 30th - July 7th or is that the period when players will arrive, quarantine and then camp is after?

 

That's when the players arrive, (I assume) get tested, start shooting a bit, then off to Orlando on the 7th for full practices, etc. With the season starting the 31st.

 

There's going to be so many injuries next season

 

i just dont know how next season works... like theres no way they are making players bubble up for a full 82 game season right? and there's no way we are back to travelling across the country for all 30 teams every night by december...right?

 

theres just so many holes you can poke in everything... i really want it to work, but i have a feeling we'll be having some major letdowns soon after july 31
