    I believe I read they could bring someone or families in but not till after the 1st round complete and many teams are sent packing. Only way they could ensure guys didn’t take a dive! If I was in that spot and at no point could I get some ass I’d probably be tryin to lose and get out of dodge!

    James only guy that wants to play. If he didn't want to play this thing would not be an issue.

    He's getting old and his time is now.. Obviously he wants to play as the Lakers were the favorites also going into Corona..

    NO BRAINER for Lebron!!! Best chance to get another ring...






    Tough chasing the king though..

    Clippers are tough, still the Lakers are right there also, were playing very well.. Could have gone either way before Corona shut it all down?

    We just don't know now and may never know????

    Hopefully you’re right.

    im a nurse in Silicon Valley and have cared for plenty of Covid+ patients and I’ve never been tested, why should they be?

    Problem is you can't bet futures now because of this thing

    You could be in the conf. finals or finals and a superstar gets covid, and everything goes to shit. It would be a wrap.

    Playing, in reality, is a dumb idea.

    NFL is gonna be way way worse. Their locker rooms are filthy.

    Yeah, a lot of extra risk with a lot of different strategies, including those with futures.

    Between all the sports it's going to be a long fall season and the only thing going for is that all thiese players will get it and be done with it, whether they exhibit symptoms or not, by the fall.

    They are going to Florida? Do you remember when Italy was the sh!t show of the world? Only a few months ago.
    Florida is now that same disaster area. Today shut down non emergency surgeries in anticipation of a flood of virus cases.
    De Santos is a Republican who is shutting things down.
    Could you imagine Italy when we were all shocked 3 months ago hosting a soccer tournament??
    This is insane. In the worst country in the world for COVID in the worst state in that country.....let's play ball???
    The Excited States of America......you just can't make this sh!t up.

    Lots of guys gonna be out for the entire Orlando bubble. Individual player totals and rebounds/assists etc going to be easy to predict given playing time due to the missing players

    We'll see. Don't get me wrong I want them to play, but when you add in the human nature element anything can and will go wrong.
    Ever see a sports movie with breaking curfew as a theme. These guyz are ultra rich with pussy awaiting them at every turn.

    Why not make the plane out of the same stuff they make the black boxes from???
    Sounds like a good idea?

    It's one thing to have the players, coaches, staff, officials, etc in a bubble. It's an entirely different aspect to bubble the hotel workers, arena staff, and other miscellaneous employees with regards to the process.

    Do you rly think the hundreds of hotel employees in the 3 different hotels are going to not go home like hospital front line workers? Keep in mind they don't make the millions the players and coaches do.

    Is this work so noble that they are saving lives to stay away from their loved ones? This whole concept is ripe for disaster

    30 guys already positive.

    Everyone kept laughing at me, but I said every interview I've seen on TV and heard on the radio, from former and current NBA players, have said that guys can't keep their dick in their pants for that long and I'm literally not joking.

    Someone tried to argue with me NHL players would be no better and I almost spit my drink out.

    WHat?! 10% is that a big number?

    They're fencing off the little resort the players are staying at so if they're going to fvkc anyone it will have to be the staff, but I don't see anyone wanting to be the next Rudy Gobert. If they want to leave it's an open door policy, they're free to. Probably check out with "mental health" reasons.

    It worked in Spain and Germany because they waited until the numbers got to a manageable level.
    Now they're on the other side.
    Like it or not the the COVID Sh!tshow is now the US and near the top of the dung heap is Florida.

    Techinically speaking they didn't wait on the numbers - they planned it in advanced like the NBA and hoped for the best - but your point is fair. NBA has a lot more money to through at this however. It will be a military operation.
