We often define "seasons" in sports pretty neatly & tidily: they start in the preseason & generally end after the last game. But just like land is never as precise as the maps that seek to capture it, the end of seasons can be blurry. We hear from 3 different POVs regarding this transition: Howard Beck on how NBA media's rhythms have changed, Gigi Speer on a college athlete's end of days, and Brenda Prinzing on following a team 365 days a year even while the league they play in keeps finding ways to push you away.
