Just curious here, don't you think that the start of the new season is too late in January 2021? When they will end the next season Wasn't the season supposed to start in December or I missed something? Here's some words from Adam silver - NBA Commissioner which said on media. The 2020-21 NBA season would start around Christmas at its earliest but is much more likely to commence in January of 2021.”So these are tentative dates and expected for the next season to start.

Just curious here, don't you think that the start of the new season is too late in January 2021? When they will end the next season Wasn't the season supposed to start in December or I missed something? NBA 2019-20 got halted last March because the pandemic virus entered the NBA environment so the usual schedule also changed. No surprise if next season will commence in January 2021. Much better rather than a quick opening. Off-season activities can be done within 2 months. I can't consider it as late since it's given. Surely, they can adjust. If everything goes well ( I hope), they can back to normal schedule and activity on the 2021-22 season.

As I heard the plan to open the next season is January but I also think it's good to open it early if this possible since for sure the other players rested already when NBA suspended due to series of lockdowns. But let see on next season since I'm little bored watching the bubble since it's quite expected on who will take the champ and for sure everything we'll be adjust and back to normal on season 2021 - 2022 since I'm sure we have working vaccine and the world is on normal state at that moment.

Wasn't the season supposed to start in December or I missed something?
Supposedly every 4th week of November. It's understandable that next season got delayed. NBA bubble started in July with only a few games remaining in the season. If they push for lower teams to also play their remaining games, the period will be long so they decided not all teams will be inside the bubble. Not just in NBA but other leagues also experience that change of schedule due to pandemic.

It's much better to try coming back with a normal setups, for sure fans are longing to see how the game really being played and excite every fans everywhere, with the bubble it lessen the entertainment as many fans really wanted to see the game live in actions. As a fan, we all wanted to see the games to go back with the normal setups engaging the fans again and give them the glimpse of each games, hopefully vaccines already available to fight this virus and bring us to the normal settings again.

It's normal to see predictions go wrong. Most of them will always make themselves better than the rest, it's an honor for them to say such words. Yes, but it was Harden himself making a prediction that his team will be a champion, but it didn't happen, so I think he should just shut up and do it in action in the court, Curry and Thompson never boost about their team but they are so successful playing together, what the Rockets need is more work less talk. That's what players usually say with their teams. Expect that more talks from him naming their team as the next champion. You could also expect the same from other teams. Harden is already good as an individual player, but as a team player, I don't think so, people look at their achievement, unfortunately, Harden has not achieve an NBA championship yet, nor gone in the NBA Finals. There are a lot of good players that haven't got a championship. We will see if these reforming of their roster will do good.

That is the thing about greats and good players. Harden is an amazing player and he is definitely good enough to be called an MVP as well, dude lead the league in scoring titles as well and basically all around a great player that I won't argue against. However players like Kobe, MJ, Lebron leads their teams to championship, there is no player that never went to finals that could ever be considered one of the best to play the game. Do not tell me coaches or teammates or opponents and what not, Iverson managed to take a team of scrubs that would probably be out of the league by that moment if not for Iverson to finals and even took a game from one of the most dominating forces the league has ever seen. So, there is no point on talking about Harden not making it to finals, he just wasn't good enough for that, he is good but not finals good.

Draymond is not a good shooter but he brings energy to the team, if he sets up good he can shoot in the 3 point line, and that makes him scary. What I like about him is his aggressiveness, his defense is underrated at his size, and his passing ability also is extra ordinary, that's the reason his teammates can find open shots especially Curry and Thompson who are good 3 point shooters.
I agree with that. But, bad things could happen and it already did. Injuries. It would be better if they could maximize the capability of everyone to make an offensive attack. That way, the defense can easily be broken. Yes, but it was Harden himself making a prediction that his team will be a champion, but it didn't happen, so I think he should just shut up and do it in action in the court, Curry and Thompson never boost about their team but they are so successful playing together, what the Rockets need is more work less talk.
Lol. That's hardcore. I think he did it on purpose as a boost of confidence to his teammates. But next time, he should be accurate about it.

I don't mean to offend the harden's fans but as I search his issue before on google he have so many issues regarding as a bad teammate maybe this is one of the reason why he cannot brought up his team to the finals since they will be out performed by him due to his attitude? I'm not fan of harden though so maybe I'm miss some information regarding on him. But let see if he can stand on his claims that he will bring his team in the finals.

More likely next season will start next year until they sort everything out. I hope we see them play on their respective court with their cheerful fans. Anyway, at this time we will see some major changes from other teams maybe some major trades will be made cause last season didn't as they plan for the other teams. Here are the NBA trade rumors we need to look for. https://fadeawayworld.net

If I were to suggest to the commissioner, I would set the NBA season on January, considering the players who stayed long in the bubble, they have missed their love ones in their homes. I don't know what will be the next NBA set-up, but I guess there will be another restrictions for the players to go outside, ot It would also be in the bubble. So, I guess those players deserves to be with their family in Christmas. Though I'm excited for the next season, because for sure there will be a lot of changes in roster. Can't wait to see who's building superteams, as the Lakers are on the verge of achieving a big 3.

That's what separates an elite NBA players (MJ, Kobe, Lebron), to a good player like Harden, who individual has all the awards in his belt, except NBA ring, and with that, he will be remembered for failing and not bring his team to the finals, specially the Manu blocked on him in 2016-2017. Do not tell me coaches or teammates or opponents and what not, Iverson managed to take a team of scrubs that would probably be out of the league by that moment if not for Iverson to finals and even took a game from one of the most dominating forces the league has ever seen.

Iverson, has the heart, I remember his trash talked with Kobe back then, beat the Lakers in game 1 unexpectedly, up to that time, if my memory serves me right, Lakers went to the finals without a loss. But after game 1 Lakers took over and won 4 straight games.

Yes, January will be the best time to start. Let them have a good rest first and enjoy whatever they missed. There will be no problem with time management since they will all be in the same venue unlike before that requires flights from East to West and even going to another country like Canada. Now, teams can play every other day without feeling the restless trip. Just like what they did these playoffs.

Who would be the third player that's going to start games with Lebron and AD? For Lakers to have a big 3 the other guy needs to play for as many minutes as those two, and in all the games. I wouldn't consider KCP or Danny Green as qualifying even though they also appeared as starters in most matches because they played for much less minutes than them, and they also don't make as big of an impact as Lebron/AD do when they play together. If Chris Paul ends up getting traded to the Lakers, then yeah a superteam could form. Chris Paul and Lebron James are friends. Salvaging the Banana Boat crew somewhat at the current NBA champions would be glorious.

Agree. That's why I don't see any problem if they will start the next season next year as the venue will be in the same bubble. No need to rush and let those postseason activities be done until the end of the year. And from what I see, if next season won't have any problems, Playoffs to Finals can be done early unlike this season. The NBA can slowly back to its original and usual event scheduled. If Chris Paul ends up getting traded to the Lakers, then yeah a superteam could form.
I like how you called it a superteam when they are both veterans. Usually, a superteam is composed of players in their prime. I like how these 2 veterans are still in good form even they already passed their prime. We also have to give credits to their supporting cast.

Can the NBA still continue with the same set up like the Bubble in case there's still no vaccine? I think that would still be expensive while they are not anymore making the usual income, I'm just curious as well on how long they'll last with the current situation.

Salvaging the Banana Boat crew somewhat at the current NBA champions would be glorious. Yeah, super teams, , just like when they acquire Malone and Gary Payton and Nash to build the Lakers in 2004. So it's Shaq, Kobe + Malone, Payton and Nash but the team didn't win the NBA championship that time. So if I'm the Lakers, Chris Paul might be a bad addition to the team. No need to build super teams for team, a Lebron and Davis and then good supporting casts again.

It's either of the 2 who has the highest chances as additional depth for the Laker squad. IMO, Beal is a good addition for them since he is one of the best shooting guards in the NBA today. They can as well start Rondo in the first five. Anyway, it's not just the Lakers will become stronger next season, but a lot of teams are acquiring best talents and constellate superstars.

They should set up it again in the same bubble even there's a vaccine since mass gatherings are not recommended. As for the budget, the NBA is a big league. They have losses but for only several months with less revenue doesn't mean they can't cover their bubble operation for long. Don't worry, the league is still receiving about millions in figures in revenue here but it's just that, not the same on their revenue prior to the pandemic.

They have to maintain the same bubble. While most are out of the bubble, the NBA management could think of something new. A new setup which will be a win-win for them but nothing more, nothing less, the bubble setup was greatly made and appreciated by most of the fans. I guess more money will come in eventually for the next season.
