I hope the tournament is as fair as can be, so the winner is not always tainted.
I just dont understand the asterik thing.

Like....why?

Teams will still need to win at least 16 games to claim the cup. Back in the day you needed to win 8. Should all those be considered tainted as well?

This regular season has been longer than 2 other fairly recent ones that crowned winners. Should those not count any longer?

There is absolutely zero things that this has changed other than a pandemic that could never have had a contingency plan in place for it.
