The Boston Celtics and Toronto Raptors were originally scheduled to play Game 1 of their long-awaited playoff series last night. As we all know now, that didn’t happen, and we all know why.
We still don’t know exactly what happens next. The players and the league have said they will resume play, but no plans have emerged beyond a vague “hoping to restart this weekend.” More importantly, we don’t know what the league and owners have told the players they will do to help enact the change that the players are looking for.
And that’s what I want to talk about today.
