again, they won’t compete against football. They know it. They still want to play. What’s the problem?
It's more just odd to be not starting games until July 31st. Why waste July? You could probably start this gimmicky play-in tournament even sometime in June.
Also, just start with the playoffs. The Magic and Grizzlies have not insignificant leads as the 8th seed over others. I love Zion and I know he's the answer as to why they're doing this but it doesn't make much sense.
Too many teams would be left out if they just started with the playoffs. They need to give some opportunity for each franchise, its players, and fans.

They've played 64 games.
That's my only question about it. I don't know that. I agree with you but I'm sure they'd rather start sooner than later, there has to be a good reason.
There is some wear-and-year saved if they just play everything in Orlando and never have to travel between different cities, too, mind you. NBA players travel in the most comfortable circumstances possible, that is still time and some energy used.
There has been some serious talk recently about the sleep deprivation NBA experience over the course of a season with their schedules.

Basketball in the summer is going to be the new norm now.If it wasn't for our Cyclones in the NBA, I wouldn't waste my time watching any more games this year. Basketball in the summer and early fall doesn't work for me.
