JOE COWLEY BULLS BEAT

[email protected] | @JCowleyHoops

For a young, rebuilding team, a nine-month layoff from a competitive NBA game seemingly would be punishment enough. But there’s a bigger concern for the Bulls now that the NBA Board of Governors approved the 22- team “bubble’’ restart Thursday, which leaves out eight teams that must try to find their way between now and October. The Bulls also areofficially re- moved from the Orlando recruiting game. Think that exclusion won’t be a thing? Think again. Look at the relationships that players have built the last decade- plus from simply playing on Team USA. In 2008, LeBron James, Chris Bosh and Dwyane Wade spent the summer capturing a gold medal and planting the seeds of how they would play together within two years on the Heat. In the 2016 Olympics, then-Bull Jimmy Butler struck up such a sol- id friendship with Kyrie Irving that OUT OF when Irving demanded a trade out of Cleveland in 2017, one of the four places he listed as a destination spot was Minnesota, which just so happened to acquire Butler a month earlier.

No, the recruiting game is a thing, and with the 2021 free-agent class arguably one of the most talented in league history, being left outside the “bubble’’ could be a three-year sen- LOOP tence in solitary confinement. As has been described by the league, the bubble will allow players to freely come and go from Bulls won’t be heading to Orlando, will miss their hotel rooms to play golf, eat out on some big recruiting opportunities at restaurants, etc., as long as they remain on the designated Disney Complex campus.

IRREGULAR SEASON The 22-team plan includes all teams that were holding playoff spots when the season was stopped, plus all other clubs within six games of a postseason berth. Each team will play eight games to determine playoff seeding. If the gap between the eighth- and ninth- place teams in either conference is four games or fewer when the regular season ends, those teams will go head-to-head for the No. 8 seed. The team in ninth place would have to go 2-0 in a two-game series to win the berth; otherwise, the No. 8 seed would advance to the postseason.
