Dr.Drako Posted May 29, 2020 Posted May 29, 2020 (edited) The NBA's return points to July 31. The league held a meeting on Friday with the Board of Governors and Commissioner Adam Silver reported on the tentative restart date for the season, as reported by Shams Charania of The Athletic, in addition to the meeting discussing possible scenarios to restart the season, which was suspended on March 12 after hearing the positive from Rudy Gobert, and the favorite option is to end the regular season and restart directly with the Playoffs. The NBA voted four scenarios back: go straight to the Playoffs with the 16 traditional teams according to the classification of March 12, the World Cup format with 20 teams, that 22 teams restart the regular season and there is a tournament to determine the last playoff sites, and that the 30 teams return and play 72 games prior to a mini-tournament for the last playoff spots. 53% of general managers voted to go straight to the Playoffs, a situation that seemed against Due to the fact that some players, including LeBron James, have expressed that they need time to recover the game rhythm, the owners, including Michael Jordan, emphasized the safety of the players and that there would be no point in playing 'inconsequential' games between teams already eliminated, so a return of the 30 teams seems unfeasible. Another point in the discussions that took place on Friday is to expand the size of the rosters, adding players from G-League subsidiaries to have more flexibility in case of injuries or any quarantine that has to be given if someone tests positive for coronavirus.
