How legit is this Orlando bubble? Looks like the state of Florida is having its second wave of Corona infections.

I think our HC has one more finals run in him. This is his big chance.
Yes we have to practically win out to make it to the 9th spot, so I'm not holding my breathe, but I'll be watching. Doesn't seem particularly safe, but I wish everyone well.
It'll be interesting to see how the team performs, wether or not we actually make the POs. Ideal scenario would be winning some games with one or more of our young guys showing out (I'm especially looking at DJ, now much more rested/healed and close to his "old form", and Lonnie, he looks to have been training a lot, with Keldon as a dark horse), but the other teams winning as well, keeping us out of the playoffs and the sweet #11 pick with an outside shot at top-4. No sense trying to make the playoffs whatsoever besides waiving Pop his last goodbye, tbh.
It's gonna be tough since the Spurs have to leap frog New Orleans, Portland and Sacramento to get the ninth seed
Spurs should lose all their games to improve their draft pick.
Fire poop
Rid ddr and Forbes gay
Start over
Losing these 8 games does nothing to improve draft spot.
That would almost make the earlier part of the regular season meaningless. They are doing it the right way, teams with the better record have an advantage of getting into the playoffs.
No crowd in the playoffs will sound like 6 AM hs basketball practice. And pumping in 2k crowd noise sounds like a joke.
I did not study the rules for this redo-my bad
Is it time for Metu to get a shot at contributing?
Actually its not that grim. Spurs are only a 1/2 back of the 9th seed and have only to get withing 3 games back behind Grizzlies (right now its 4 gb). Essentialy, just win one game more than everybody else an the spurs have the 9th seed + the play in game locked in. So if Spurs lets say win 5 - 3 or 6 - 2 it could already be enough for the play in game. Still its true for everybody else too, its that close.
Dont forget, everybody will play against a tough opponent, there are no easy games anymore.
Good to hear! It's tight race that's for sure.
LOL. This from the NBA's Orlando Power Rankings:
On that note, seeding games are another opportunity to experiment with a backcourt of Dejounte Murray and Derrick White, who have played just 102 minutes together all season (and 10 minutes together in a single game just once). The Spurs have been outscored by 7.6 points per 100 possessions in 1,020 total minutes with Murray and Forbes on the floor together, but are a plus-0.8 in 427 minutes with Murray on the floor without Forbes, who has seen the third biggest drop in 3-point percentage (from 42.6% to 38.8%) among 46 players with at least 300 3-point attempts in each of the last two seasons.
But, hey, they have them ranked above Phoenix and Washington.
If the Spurs decide to add 2 players to their roster who would you go with (granted I'm sure none would have a major role)? Below are my suggestions - some can be tryouts for next year.
Luc Mbah a MouteIn a report from The Athletic, the updated and official rules would allow players who have signed a NBA/G-League deal this season or last season would become eligible players.
Justin Anderson
Jonah Bolden
Ryan Broekhoff
Corey Brewer
Allen Crabbe
They will add Weatherspoon and Eubanks. Why would they pay an extra dime for 16th and 17th men?
They won't add anyone other than their own G-league/2-way players, but Allen Crabbe would be interesting.
Again just a hypothetical in the event they decided to carry a full 17 man roster (even if they added Eubanks and 'Spoon, that's only 15).
It’s actually 16. They have a full 15 man NBA roster, minus LMA, plus the 2ways. I doubt they sign anyone to spot 17, but if they did, it might just be a prospective end of roster guy or 2 way for next year, just to take a look, see how they practice and interact with the players.

. I forgot they waived the fashion diva.
Maybe Motiejunas? It would be 5 more games than he played last time.
I'd probably take a look at Bolden; I thought he had promise the year he was drafted...
He’s laughing all the way to the bank.
