Sources: The NBA held a call this afternoon with team GMs & presidents to detail the plan for a 72-game season set to begin December 22 & end before the Olympics in July. The league intends to schedule games in a way that reduces travel by 25% with teams playing MLB style series.

Logical plan. Lakers versus Nuggets would be one 3-game series. Actually like mini-playoffs. Much more interesting than single games. Now adjustments become more important. Benefits teams like the Lakers with coaches like Frank Vogel.
I like that idea. Sort of a mini bubble.
Only no real bubble. Honor system and testing. Like the NFL and MLB. Kind of a crap shoot.
Ya mean like a trumpett rally with no masks?? LOL!
This Proposal makes sense. The only question that comes to mind is: how would past NBA champions compare theirs to the new normal? Playing 82 games filled with the rigors of travel in addition to playing back to back on the road for as many days. But then, we are not living in normal times. So that works for me.
