NBA Rumors: League Considering Piping In Crowd Noise from NBA 2K

After months of ongoing deliberations and planning, the 2019-20 regular season will officially be resuming after the NBA and NBPA agreed on a 22-team competitive format.

The league has decided on Walt Disney World in Orlando, Fla., as its bubble location for the remainder of the season where the 22 invited teams will compete in eight regular season games to determine playoff seeding.

The biggest addition to the plan is a potential play-in tournament that is triggered if the nine seed is within four games of the eight seed.

In this event, the nine seed would have to win two games against the eight seed in order to secure the spot.
