Feels like the options to me are the following:
1. Cancel the season, award conference "winners" with some kind of lame award in lieu of a championship trophy and call it a day.
2. Hold a very quick tournament in the middle of the summer, maybe in 1 location with no fans even to have something that looks like a playoff. You might not even call it the Larry O'Brian trophy. It could actually use the same type of format they are wanting to use for the regular season tournament. Players would be away from their families and all in one place so you could minimize the impact and this assumes that Covid cases are in steep decline over the summer. You could get in done in a couple of weeks.
3. Keep postponing until you are left with option 1 again.
