Cross posting from the GH thread. I think they almost have to look at a shorter season. The season is going to start at least a few months later than usual, and I don't think they want to have the playoffs be going to much deeper into the summer than normal. I don't know the right number, but I'd think somewhere around 60-70 games would be plenty to establish playoff seedings.
This is going off-topic, but it's interesting to me how in the early days of baseball restarting there were a bunch of covid issues, but that seems to have diminished (although honestly I don't pay much attention to baseball at all anymore). The NFL isn't doing a bubble, and they seem to be fine. So, what will be the NBA approach to start the season? I think there will be a significant push not to have it be in a bubble.
