When the NBA first announced that its rough timeline for returning to action wouldn’t really kick off until the end of July, my overriding feeling was, “my God that’s a long ways away”. Well, June is turning to July and basketball is still a really long ways away (and can’t help but feeling longer in a different way as Florida’s coronavirus count continues to fluctuate regularly).
Time acts an illusion in this circumstance, though. We really are only four-and-a-half weeks away from the Milwaukee Bucks actually taking part in somewhat consequential games beginning July 31st.
