M4One Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 4 hours ago, WSU151 said: Seems like two games at once, separated by a curtain, would be awful for TV. So many whistles, horns, maybe different public announcers? Four games per day on two courts per venue seems likely, with an alternating time schedule between courts. There are 3 venues that will be used. Five to six games will be played each day. There will be 4 hours in between games so the courts can be cleaned. Unlikely there would be any practices happening at the same venues while the games are going on. What that likely means is that 3 games can be played at the same time in the morning/early afternoon at the 3 different venues and 3 more in the evening. Others have pointed out the possibility that they could set up practice courts elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides the unnecessary outline, the wordmark is way too big, and too flat - just look how far down it has to be placed just to fit. Letters and numbers are spaced too far apart too. I think purple and green is a great combo, but those were putrid uniforms.

Scrumptious Ham Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 They can have a guy with a mic in a corner somewhere. It's not a big deal. 3 hours ago, WSU151 said: I think they’ll do a rolling schedule so fans who are watching aren’t waiting four hours between games. What fans? It was my understanding none would be in attendance. This might not be your usual gameday production. They could film it like a TV or movie scene.

The problem in today's world is even with that color pallet, you can be sure black would be shoehorned in somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gosioux76 Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Maybe I'm just playing the roll of eternal optimist today, but this whole thing is going to be a fantastic mess and it's going to make for an absolutely mind-blowing documentary in about five years. What a remarkable experiment to be playing out in real time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CitizenTino Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Conference USA has had two conference tourney games running concurrently on courts separated by a curtain the past few years. I don’t think the NBA would do it, but it’s feasible. https://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/college/ct-spt-ncaa-conference-usa-tournament-20180308-story.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrumptious Ham Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 There are three buildings being used. You won't get more than three games a day. With the three buildings, you could roll the three games off back to back to back. There's your daily tv slate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each venue could likely handle minumum three games a day if they start at noon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
