The NBA is BACK. Yes, it is in an odder fashion than usual, but nonetheless it's back. Teams will play 8 regular-season games before resuming to the play-in tournament. This is good news for the NBA since we are going to be able to watch basketball again. This is not so good news if you are the Toronto Raptors.
Why is it bad news for the Toronto Raptors
Well, first off the Toronto Raptors (46-18) are only three games ahead of the Boston Celtics (43-21). So it is still possible that they can fall to third and maybe even fourth place in the East if things truly get ugly.
