    Something tells me Adam Silver wouldn't give a **** what Trump thinks.

    It would be absolutely neutral is it's used as the Eastern Conference venue. Vegas/Orlando for the WC and Houston for the EC, then Vegas/Orlando for the finals is 100% neutral. (Let's face it, the Magic won't be in the finals.)

    I'm glad the season will resume. I wish the fans could be at the games but this is better than nothing. I wonder would they consider letting in fans already fully recovered or tested positive for antibodies.

    Eh - its not like a lockout, where people couldn't agree. This is something no one wanted. Of course people will talk **** if it's not their team, but the banners and rings will look the same.

    Assuming the NBA comes back before a vaccine is developed, it will be interesting to see how players who have said they will walk away will react. It will also be interesting to see how players react to those we know tested positive (Mitchell, Gobert, Durant etc. ). Can Utah keep that team together? What happens if/when key players/staff get sick during the playoffs and have to quarantine and thus swing the course of a series? Very interesting times.

    the playoffs typically take 2 months themselves, but this proposed schedule implies 10 reg season games + playoffs in about 6 weeks o_O

    All depends if mid July falls into Second or Third Wave periods or when the Virus is 'actually slowing down' sort of moment which would probably be ideal.

    I would say the coaching staff is at risk.
