Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 3494658, member: 5798"] A revised schedule is almost a certainty in light of what is "guaranteed" to be a late start to the season. They can now use those 30 days previously set aside for the Olympics. Like the LA Sparks that share an arena with other sports franchises (Lakers/Clippers/Kings), arena availability for some teams will be a factor. Do they try and play a full 36 game season (increased from 34 included in the new CBA this year), or a modified schedule including a reduced playoff field? Lots of their players are under contract to teams overseas whose season may begin before a revised WNBA season would end. That would be a problem if 1-2 of your best players had to leave before the season ended. Imagine if EDD and Emma Meesseman both had to leave the Mystics two weeks BEFORE the end of the season because of contractual obligations overseas. :eek: [/QUOTE]
