The NHL was at a similar point in their season when they stopped and seem to be leaning towards a 24-team playoff format. That would mean that 7 teams are eliminated when the season resumes but 8 additional teams make the playoffs. In the NBA, it's only the WC where there are a couple of teams on the bubble so they probably don't need to be so generous.

Longtime Jazz coach Jerry Sloan dies at age 78
Jerry Sloan, who coached the Jazz for 23 seasons as part of a Hall of Fame career, died Friday at the age of 78 from complications from Parkinson's disease and Lewy body dementia.
Legend of a coach. Longevity and to keep evolving his team after Stockton and Malone showed just how good he was.

An interesting idea floated is a World Cup style pool stage, followed by a traditional finals format. Top 20 teams are placed in four pools of five, and play eachother twice each before the play-offs are locked in.
More details here, but I love it as a concept.

@mariner4life I wonder if they'll try and manoeuvre to avoid scheduling clashes with NFL - they would get crushed in the ratings.

Loved the last Dance overall, but agree with @voodoo above who said it could've been cut in half in terms of length.
Unpopular opinion (on here) but I think Lebron is the GOAT even more than MJ now.
Doc Rivers says it better than me (although he still thinks its MJ):
"We Didn't Allow LeBron That": Doc Rivers Reveals Why NBA Has been Unfair to LeBron James Compared to Michael Jordan - EssentiallySports
Many have drawn comparisons between Michael Jordan and LeBron James. Doc Rivers churned a different perspective to the debate.

Yep. Tim Southee took about a thousand wickets in Perth and Melbourne. He must also be the GOAT.
Isn’t he though?

@ACT-Crusader any cricket shots to be found? It'll take more than a few dirty slogs on an Intermediate School oval to change my mind
