Finding motivation this year has been harder on coaches and players than ever before. We’ve seen home court advantages disappear as cavernous arenas across the country sit empty. We’ve seen home teams blow comfortable leads because they don’t have the crowd behind them to keep pushing them, while also seeing away teams come storming back without any crowd noise to phase them or shake them up. And we’ve also seen good teams come out unenergetic and flat. It’s been bizarre to watch, but the nice thing is that the virtually every team in the country is on the same level playing field since everyone’s going through the same challenges.
