Yeah thats my issue. Season just ended for the teams who made the conference finals. A Christmas day start don't even give the Heat/Lakers a full 2 months off. The next season should start mid January. MLK day would be ideal. Its a holiday and we can have all day basketball

Really like the MLK Day idea.

I'd like to see the league go to a Christmas Day through July/August schedule permanently. I think it would be great for the league to not have to spend the first couple of months of the season competing with the NFL.

The problem for this season is that it just ended. So for the playoff teams, that a short turnaround. But, there are also teams who haven't played a game since what? March? April?

Maybe a January start this year, then start Christmas Day for 2021-22?
Just my opinion but don't like this idea. Like having the NBA for a sports fill mid-October on during the week.

From that perspective, I understand. I'd feel the same way. But from a popularity of the league/tv ratings/financial perspective, not having to compete with the NFL would be good for the NBA, imo.

Plus, there's Monday Night Football, Thursday Night Football, there are usually college games on Thursday and/or Friday nights and MLB playoffs are in October.

A tweet like this is a reminder the uphill battle the NBA face if they want to change to a December-August season permanently
