The Pels have played 50+ win basketball since the big losing streak. I would think they would be considered a formidable team going into the playoffs. Definitely if they are healthy.

On a call with the NBA GM's this afternoon, Adam Silver confirmed that Friday's meeting of the Board of Governors would not include a formal vote on a return-to-play plan, sources tell ESPN. Talks on a plan will continue into the weekend.

Whether you believe he has sauces or not, MM's analysis is usually well thought out.

Friday - Sunday: Expect 'insider' reports saying that league discussed many options, nothing set in stone yet, but they are leaning towards more than 16 teams

Monday-Friday: Small details coming out, still no set plan.

Sat - Tuesday: We should get official plan

Well thought out in that it summarizes information readily available to anyone with internet access?

That's what I've been saying all along. Stern didn't veto it as part of some league conspiracy. It was just a shitty trade offer.

Would you really want to play the completely healthy Pels in the first round if you're the #1 seed?

Calling this an “elaborate game” is sour grapes talk. Who’s the league source feeding this to Windy? Memphis? Would the Lakers care? Are other Playoff teams actually afraid of the Pels?


A month ago Russillo joked on the Simmons pod about Silver just coming out and saying "everyone wants to see Zion in the playoffs, so they're in, deal with it" or something very similar. I had hope they'd go this route from there. Those are two big names in the NBA media to be throwing around lines randomly like that. Now this. This is some pretty serious smoke at this point.

Welcome to PeliTalk. Are you a Zion fan or a Pelicans fan?

There is no doubt this is about Zion or they would just move to playoffs.

My favorite part of that picture, other than the monster that will dominate the NBA for the next 15 years in the forefront, is how pumped the bench is (including Jah who probably hasn't even played in the game). Big difference than the last two years. Need to keep Hart and Hayes around a long time.

Or maybe he reads Windhorst or Shams or anyone else who said the number will be 20 to get Zion into post-pandemic play.
