Things you should know about NBA 2020 Season

NBA 2020 will soon start this summer and players will make their way back into the court.

Now officially basketball pro members have confirmed about resuming the NBA after the lockdown.

Coronavirus pandemic stopped almost all sports throughout the globe. We already have lost the time, so some changes should be done before starting the NBA 2020 season. Previously 30 teams used to participate but now we will only be able to watch 22 teams in action. 16 Out of 22 teams will be those who are already in the current playoff list and 6 teams will be decided by a special conference of No. 8 seed. This season there will only be 8 regular games.

Training camps for players are supposed to start soon and will go on till June end. The season will start around July ending. This will give players enough time to get back in touch. Most Matches will be held in Orlando and Florida.

Many people are happy to know about the NBA coming back. Many people who were associated with these sports had various problems, but now they all are happy as they can work and earn through this opportunity. Now people will get their wager after a long wait.

If we look at the schedule of NBA 2020 we can predict more about the season and try to find out the odds who are going to make it big this season. The total duration of the NBA 2020 season will be 16 days. The season will start on 31st July and almost six games will be played on the same day players have to play nonstop sports.

The New Orleans Pelicans are high rated odds in the latest draft of NBA 2020. Anthony Davis has been traded by the Lakers. The Clippers went for Kawhi Leonard, and he might turn out to be a good pick.

Odds for NBA playoffs!

The return of the NBA has created excitement in everyone's mind. We all are predicting the journey of all 22 teams and trying to figure out which team can make it to the finals and win it this year. This season is going to be short and back-to-back matches can be seen.

The Los Angeles Lakers look like a good team on paper and stand in a good position for winning the tournament. The Lakers are favorites to win the tournament but would definitely have tough competition. As per the past records, Lakers is the record holder team who won the 17th championship.

Starting Lakers players, Lebron James, and Anthony Davis are their keys to success. They looked in a purple patch before the pandemic stopped the sports all over the globe. They will look to make a promising comeback soon.

The Lakers have come close to the playoffs for consecutive years for the long run. It has been a long time that the Lakers have played finals and looked so confident before.

The Lakers under the likes of LeBron James and Anthony Davis have managed to win many crucial matches. Statistically, they looked in great form as they managed to win 7-1 in their last eight games.

The journey of this team has been full of ups and downs, but now matches are played on the neutral venue, and they should capitalize on this situation and win maximum matches.

Compared to Toronto Raptors Lakers is the far better team on paper. If things go well according to the plan then the Lakers can surely outplay their opponent. So, in my opinion, the Lakers are favorites to win instead of Toronto Raptors.

Why is it difficult for the Toronto Raptors to make it to the playoffs this season?

Toronto Raptors have lost their two crucial players Kawhi Leonard and Danny Green. They both had a huge contribution to Toronto in winning the NBA playoffs. Toronto will need to add some talented players like Carmello Anthony to make them do well this season.

The Golden State Warriors had a huge loss in the form of Jordan Bell, Boogie Cousins, Kevin DurantIggy, Shaun Livingston, and Cook.

Last year, they were close to winning the match against the Warriors team. Now there are many tough teams like 76ers, Lakers, Jazz, Celtics, Bucks, Clippers, T Blazers, and many more. It will be a difficult season for them to qualify. Even the warriors have enough chances of winning this year's NBA finals. There is a chance that we may witness a new winner this season.
