2019-2020 Official Regular Season Thread

Have to give credit where it's due.

You've toned getting into these long ass arguments with folks on the main thread down to almost non-existent, kept those to other threads and even toned it down a little there.

It's appreciated.

no I haven't.

sorry...couldn't resist. Honestly, though, haven't been aware of my posts at least when it pertains to which thread they have been on. These days any sports discussion is a pleasure to find.

RIP Wes.

Dude was short for a center. He was like the Charles Barkley of centers.

He was a beast. Good man too.

My dad had the opportunity to spend some time with him and got to know him a bit. Had nothing but positive things to say about Wes.

Oh, the irony. You are crying about the world not getting back to normal and seem to be hopeful sports will not be back for the entire year.

2 for one special.....Ya gotta love this forum.

Who is crying? LOL . I have simply been stating facts. And it seems like my opinion has been correct even though you dont agree.
There is nothing more in the world right now that I would love then to watch sports. Raptors and Flyers were poised to go on long playoff runs. Watching a young Jays team start to come together. The Euro cup. The olympics.

You made a recent comment that "sports are done this year", correct? with no Doc Brown Delorean not sure how this (or really many things you have said) has been proven to be factually correct.

But all the complaining makes it odd you'd call anyone a bitch. You be you though.

How can you not realize the NBA is coming back then?

I think it is coming back.

But not a done deal.

Let’s see what the corona virus numbers look like next week after all this madness calms down.

from what i heard there was supposed to be a decision from Adam Alien this week(BSPN)...

 

[Black Adam]

Thanks?

and you are definitely not wrong. when clear someone will ignore any and all facts that refute his/her comment I could probably back down sooner.

so no denial on my part.

meh, i guess you pass...for now...

Just like coronavirus won’t kill 100,000 people?

Until they actually start playing playoff games, there are a lot of ways this could go sideways.

Remember back in March when the games were still being played? Then 1 player got sick and everything shut down. If people start getting sick, that could happen again.

No it's a done deal. Just because I was wrong about something totally different doesn't mean I'm wrong here.

It would take more than 1 player testing positive if they've already started. NBA already told the players that once it starts, they won't stop for 1 positive test.

I don’t think you are wrong that they will play. I believe they will.

But it is not 100% certain at all.

Of course not.

But what if 25 players test positive next week after being out in the protests? What if once they start playing, they get a rash of positive tests?

I hope they play. I believe they have a plan in place that players and owners will agree to.

But that does not mean there aren’t ways that these plans can get messed up.

They really just need to test in...screen...test out. Simple as that.

Sure, nothing is
But I'm sure.

So the last day an NBA game gets played in probably mid October?

When would the 20-21 season start then? And free agency?

It's going to be interesting to say the least.

2021 would be Christmas I think

Free agency is a tougher nut

Good grief. No criticism of BLM allowed on the NBA subreddit now? I got shadowbanned from there 2 and a half months ago when I made a joke submission during the time of unprecedented chaos that they bent over backwards to construe as racist, so no loss for me.
