Please allow me to throw up: Lakers to be named NBA Champs if season never resumes according to league bylaw

Error 0:

As if things couldn't get worse in 2020. The NBA continues to try and salvage this season no matter how far into the summer they have to go or no matter how short series they need to play. But with news that the Olympics' summer games have been postponed for a year and now Wimbledon has been cancelled for the first time since WWII the chance that the NBA just scraps the season entirely is becoming a possibility.

What's worse is that wouldn't mean that there would be no NBA Champion, but according to outdated NBA bylaws the Lakers would win their 17th championship to tie them with the Celtics for the most ever, even though they didn't even win one playoff game!
