Mark Cuban, owner of the Dallas Mavericks in the North American Professional Basketball League (NBA), said all 30 teams should still be on the field if the season continues.
Cuban's position is that each team will play a minimum of five and a maximum of seven regular season matches before the start of the playoffs, which this time will be held with 20 teams instead of 16 due to the special situation.
According to the plan outlined by ESPN sports channel Dallas owner, each band would thus have the 70 regular season matches required, according to press reports, to pay the maximum amount of television contracts.
According to Cuban’s plan, seven teams per conference would certainly make it to the playoffs, 9-10. placed first would clash with each other and then the winner of the duel would play with the 8th place finishers for the last playoff places.
"It would be a fair and exciting run, which would provide more playoffs and a little more refreshment for the league. In addition, almost every team would still have a chance to win the playoffs," the sports director said. , only two teams, last year’s grand Final Golden State Warriors and the Minnesota Timberwolves would be knocked out by now. After the formation of the 16-team field, the fight would continue in the usual channel.
The NBA has been on hiatus since March 11, with league management in advanced talks with Disney World in Orlando to continue the season there in late July.
