NBA Restart Plan has Plenty of Gray Areas

The NBA is set to resume in late July with a 22-team finish to the 2019-20 regular season, plus a play-in tournament, plus the 2020 NBA Playoffs.

That plan neither disturbs nor pleases everyone. Over the last two weeks, I’ve gotten a dozen or so questions on its suitability. In the last week alone, I’ve received half a dozen questions or comments about dissension within the ranks of NBA players. Kyrie Irving is advocating for players to sit out, or at least put the brakes on and concentrate on what’s important. Ed Davis is claiming that’s easy for Kyrie to say, but not so for everyone.
