@mariner4life Bah! I think I've said this before, but I don't love the guy, I just don't get the level of hate thrown at him (that's not pointed at you, I know you're just stirring), especially from our generation of fans. Guess its annoying having the young kids call him GOAT, but it doesn't make me dislike the guy, its hardly his fault. At the end of the day he is a bit of a douche and a try-hard, way too brand focused - but if that's the worst thing we can say about him, then he's going alright. He does so much awesome stuff for kids, seems like a happily married dude who gets off on seeing his kids be happy and succeed.

Reasonable explanation of how the 22 teams into 16 play off spots thing will work.
NBA owners approve 22-team season restart plan
The NBA took a major step toward getting back on the court Thursday, with the league’s Board of Governors approving a 22-team format for restarting the league season next month at the Disney campus near Orlando, Florida.

The latest LowePost pod with Pelton is also good for an analysis

Watching NBA classics on ESPN right now. 99-2000 season and it’s Raptors v Suns after the 2000 All-Star game and Vince goes for 50.
That Suns team though were very good. Plenty of talent - Penny, JKidd, Cliff Robinson, Tom Gugliota, Longley, Marion, Rodney Rogers. Unfortunately for them they came up against a rampant Lakers in the 2nd round.

Super excited for the restart, getting close now with all the teams in Orlando. Lakers to win it all, for Kobe!
Clippers

Head says Clippers, Heart says Lakers
Hope Giannis makes the leap and gives either a cracking series.

I genuinely think it's impossible to tip. No crowds or home court throws it wide open. Who knows how players will react as the season goes on and they are locked up for a longer period.
This might be the break the Bucks needed. I tipped the Lakers earlier in the year, thinking the Kobe emotion might be enough to lift them to the title. But in a sterile arena that emotional push ebbs away, you'd think.
But it wouldn't shock me if a team like Houston or Miami came from the clouds. Or a settled, experienced team like Toronto.

I can't see anyone outside Clips, Lakers or Bucks getting up, absent some serious injuries. Houston, OKC could steal a few games, but over 7 games will ultimately get found out.
