Yeah that's all I meant, I don't think it's dangerous to NBA players. So far I'm right, but that could change

Which in general may be true, but who do they pass it to? People are worried about the hotel workers, when maybe they need to be worried FOR the hotel workers as well.

Unless they are hanging out with the hotel workers maskless, it will be very hard to pass it to them. These players are going to be tested constantly.

They can’t replace Bradley’s on the ball defense though. He is a hound.

I agree they will be fine. Even better offensively with Waiters and Smith. But that defense was pretty important especially for the Clippers match up, IMO.
Concede.

KCP can't guard Lou * If he plays*, Shamet, George, Jackson and Beverly.

At least 2 of those 5 will be on the floor at all times.

Gotta think Mr. 94 feet will have a bunch of wide open shots.

Portland and Houston could be a bit harder to get by too.

I mean, if I had a team in that thing, I would want the best players I could find. Top teams in that thing are really good.

Maybe he is just helping out friends and taking a small cut?

Either way, your team has to be good enough to win before you can worry about that. 100% of $0 is still 0.

If the season doesn't restart I'm just going to proclaim the Celtics '19-'20 NBA champions. Beating the Lakers in 7 when Tacko Fall blocks LAbron's game winning shot attempt.

I don't see how football can conceivably happen, college or pro. Too many people for a "bubble", the game has as much contact as possible, far too many teams to avoid infection, etc. Even if they start either football season, I doubt they complete it. Major college athletics should just take a year off (sucks for the kids and is a huge money drain on the universities, but they can't even reasonably guarantee safety).
No doubt possible it wont happen but I wouldn't be so sure it cannot. As mentioned earlier (cannot recall if this thread) we have other industries with a lot of people working in close proximity to each other. True, they probably do not tackle each other, but they also are comprised of many workers who are much older than an NFL player (20-35ish). As Stakes pointed out he works at such an industry and they have had few if any issues.

I think the kids have a much better chance to be safe (at least when it comes to severe illness or death as unsafe). The coaches? That could be another story, but they could distance themselves.

So Avery Bradley has decided not to play. Guess who the Purple 'n Gold are thinking of replacing him with.

:laugh3:

Dude can shoot. I just hope the Lakers are bringing someone into the bubble to help him remember the score.

Also, I got the Lakers and JR Smith in the "Which Team Will Have The First Player Try To Sneak Out Of The Bubble" sweepstakes.

Well the Thunder finally signed Lugurntz Dort to a multi year contract. They had been maximizing his two way contract by not having him practice on non game days. Really liked what I saw from him, he is a guy that is not easily pushed around and is a very good defender.

Swaggy should go to another team to give someone besides the Lakers a chance to win the sneaking out sweepstakes.

If Rodman played right now I'd put all my money on him.

With him it would just be an over/under how many hours until Rodman sneaks out bet.

Hey did you see that GnG started a thread about getting kicked out of another thread? Funny shit.
