NBA Suspended Season 141 Days After Opening Night, Will Begin Play Again 141 Days Later 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Wed Jun 3, 2020 12:19 pm

The NBA suspended the 19-20 season following Rudy Gobert's positive COVID-19 test on the 141st day of the regular season.


In a strange symmetry and an indication of how long this quarantine period is lasting, the NBA plans to resume the season on July 31st, which is 141 days after March 12th.


The NBA was initially hoping to resume the season in late June or early July with the hope of The Finals concluding by Labor Day. Game 7 of The Finals will be played on October 12th, if necessary.

Just wanted to point out that's a terrible title as it's confusing and annoyed the hell out of me.
