2020 NBA Offseason Thread

[#1hiphopjunki3]

The N.B.A.’s goal is to complete the 2020-21 season before the Tokyo Olympics, which are scheduled from July 23 to Aug. 8 in 2021. That would allow the league to avoid direct competition with the Olympics and set up the 2021-22 season to return to the N.B.A.’s usual October-through-June pattern. The plan is strongly preferred by the league’s primary media partners, Disney and Turner, following a summer and fall of dismal N.B.A. ratings in a crowded sports landscape, according to a person briefed on the matter who was not authorized to discuss it publicly.

N.B.A. Is Expected to Start Its New Season Next Month (Published 2020)

The players tentatively approved a shortened 2020-21 season that will begin Dec. 22, giving top teams little time to recover from the last campaign.

Yeah, I agree that Lebron shouldn't have said that shit publicly. Most folks that watch and really know the NBA already know he is going to be load managed but casual fans and the media are going to have a field day with this quote.

The last thing the league needs is bad publicity and his comments can most definitely be used to drum up bad publicity. For a guy who shows that he understands how important it is how he is perceived publicly he sure missed the mark with this comment

SMH

Tim McMahon talked a week or two ag about how the Rockets weren't trying to go 100% microball last season...


Houston thought they had deal lined up for Nerlens Noel but OKC backed out at the last minute because they ended up not being trash

Need to bring that lob threat back asap
