Conclusion

Those are the pros and cons we’re going to cover here. League revenue is a likely pro of this offseason, but it remains to be seen how much the league stands to make and how much they stand to lose with the lower TV numbers and arenas hosting fans being lower than 50 percent.

While we’re not sure if this is an overall negative for the league and players or a positive, we are a shoo-in for the most dramatic offseason of my lifetime (another shout out to the Suns and the Bucks for the good times!) and that’s acknowledging the AD trade and Kawhi/PG to the Clippers offseason just a year ago.

The NBA season, for better or worse, is expected to begin December 22 with training camps likely opening December 1. The 2020-21 NBA season will be here before we know it. Here’s to hoping it’s a successful one.
