By the time the two week quarantine is over enough of the players are going to have it anyways to make playing the rest of the season stupid. You're going to have Miami win a title because Kawhi, AD, and Giannis all catch the virus in the next month? What a disaster. This season is over.

Really sucks for Lakers and Bucks fans to lose a shot at a title but it makes no sense to do a playoffs where the NBA title would be determined by whichever team is in the city hit least hard by the virus. It would be mockery of the title.

Optics, son. In a time like this it looks bad, really bad. Not sure how much of any revenue Artest cost NBA.. But with games shut down immediately and indefinitely the costs are easily calculated right now. We were probably headed to a suspension of the season regardless of Gobert but his positive test and actoins sped things up even if only by a week how much direct income lost is suffered by each team gate, concessions parking and mech? Do they lose any ad revenue already promised?
I had a client facing employee bitch she was sick to another employee in front of a potential client and spent an twenty minutes reassuring her about our employee protocols for addressing this.its not time to panic but shit is real. Gobert looks like a buffoon now.

It’s not just optics. He has the virus. By touching the microphones and recording devices, he could have legitimately passed it on to a handful of people right there, the stadium staff that handles the microphones and the reporters whose recorders were on the table. Even if that’s just 5 people, 3 days later, that could have evolved into 100 people from those five people all because of a fucking joke.

Rudy touching the microphones might not be the reason the league shut down, but it might be the reason one person dies. Because of a fucking joke.

No one is winning it this year. In two weeks when is the earliest time the league could possibly start again this country is going to look a lot like Italy is right now. We have had community spread for more than a month and a half and it's already all over the US. In two weeks a sizeable portion of the league will have it. By the time we're in the postseason teams are going to struggling to fill rosters with negative players. The title would be likely determined by whichever team plays in the city with the lowest infection rates. You need to let go of the thought of winning a title this year.

Nuggets have underachieved all year with a target on their back. Last year they were a top 3 seed all year. Being hunted by other teams? They've regressed. I trust Harden / Russ over Joker and Jamal.

Yes but him touching the microphones is not the reason they suspended the season. They suspended it because he came down with the virus (likely before he touched the microphones). So touching the microphones is not what’s costing them revenue.

The rest benefits you you stupid fuck. Kawhi would've been well rested anyway. It's Lebron who needs the rest. Kawhi has no advantage now.


Now now watch the language LaRoids and DaQuit were always going to get the calls and rest will help them too - but it could also turn against LAL that was on a hot streak. Time will tell

Yes but him touching the microphones is not the reason they suspended the season. They suspended it because he came down with the virus (likely before he touched the microphones). So touching the microphones is not what’s costing them revenue.

Agreed. If Rudy didn't get it then some other NBA player would have gotten it which would have lead to cancellation.

Never said that. I'm saying his careless ignorant attitude may have (MAY) have contributed to his dumbass catching it not the joke. And even if other players were destined to catch it (which I said) a whole weeknor even a weekend of lost NBA revenue is on him even if you want to give him a pass for being a dumbass as the face of the first shutdown of a major sport in the US. And even though we don't know if Spida caught it from him directly if he did its the first two case and his greasy French fingers are all over this shit sandwich

They basically hug on each other and sweat all over each other all game. Pretty sure the mic touch was nothing. People are in such desperate need of a narrative they lose their fucking minds in search of one.

Potential East upset in 1st round: 76ers over Boston. This time off buy Philly time to get Ben Simmons right. Embiid too. The only issue is Philly sucks on the road and dominant at home.

I don't trust the 76ers. I would never take that bet.



I see two "upsets" in the West: Rockets over Nuggs and OKC over Utah.

Nuggets have underachieved all year with a target on their back. Last year they were a top 3 seed all year. Being hunted by other teams? They've regressed. I trust Harden / Russ over Joker and Jamal.

Utah will be playing without their 2 best players thanks to dumbass Gobert. 'nuff said :lol

I could see the Rockets over the Nuggets. While OKC has definitely overachieved, the Jazz are a superior team assuming Conley performs. I actually think the Jazz are a sleeper team to make the WCF.




Kawahi is the most luckiest superstar in nba history.

Plays in SA with goat PF and rings and FMVP
traded to Toronto . Rings with FMVP
picks his hometown team. Gets a ridiculously deep team and load manages
Gets a guaranteed month off to rest up .

the clippers will be the most Benefited team. Gives PG and Kawhi time to heal along with time to practice if they allow it soon for teams .

Kawahi is a fucking lucky SOB. Dude has had an easy sailing career. S/O uncle dennis bro

The rest equally (if not more) benefits LBJ.

Like other have said if the season resume than #2 doesn't have an advantage anymore when it comes to rest. He actually benefits more if the season is cancelled because he gets another year of some people in the media saying he's the best player in the league until he's dethroned.

I don't get the anger about testing. If you have the virus, your symptoms will be obvious (mostly) but either way there's no specific treatment for it that doesn't also treat any flu like symptoms, so if you are worried about it, quarantine yourself. Otherwise, go about your business of spreading your disease.

Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell probably will die from this shit
https://twitter.com/DrDenaGrayson/status/1235676894026231812?s=19

Hope not, but damn. What a mess this is. And Trump fired the people who could have prevented this.

Small Pox? Eradicated by American medicine. Measles? Mumps? Rubella? Got vaccines for that too.

We were warned by our Public Health professionals about this some time ago. What does Trump do? Fire the public health pros, witness a pandemic in 2020 on American soil, then say he doesn't take responsibility for it. But Barack Obama should have in 2013:

They view him as a white god who can do no wrong. Also the majority of his supporters are old so they feel they don't have much to live for anyways so they are cool with whatever he does. Lets hope Rudy and Donovan make it through. Tom Hanks is still alive and he's above 60. If he can recover from this I think it will calm down a lot of people.

Obviously autopsies would reveal severe lung damage since the victims died. Should look more into survivors and potential short-term/long-term effects.

Don't be obtuse son. I ain't spinning anything. These public health officials are supposed to scan the world for threats such as this. But his highness got rid of them and here we are. This virus is a national security threat of his doing.

Instead of owning it, he deflecting to a previous administration who is no longer in office.

"We're doing a great job" is what he told the world when confronted by a Black reporter.

Is he doing a good job? Do you feel safe? Are you gonna fly anywhere any time soon? When you go to HEB, do you trust the produce?

Sure, clown LkrFan instead of placing the blame where it belongs. But go off tho. I hope you and your family don't fall victim. Be safe out there son. :tu

As soon as someone tests positive once they would start play again that would shut the league down again for another month for players to quarantine. There is no way players aren't going to be testing positive all the time in a month when the NBA would hypothetically start playing in the best case. It's over.

COVID is pretty much dead already in China. And the CDC just requested all events with 50 more people to be cancelled over the next 8 weeks. Would be shocked if this didn't fizzle out over the next month.

But I could see irresponsible players mucking it all up as you say.
