scoobdog Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 So... How does suspending the season play out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Teddybar Gut Fullung Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 (edited) Not sure, but until the virus is beaten back, it may end up being the right thing to do, especially when you consider the fact an active player tested positive for it. (But we shouldn't worry too much. Only the elderly and the very young are most at risk, as well as those with weakened immune systems and other underlying health issues. Though of course, I pray for everyone's well-being throughout this ordeal.) Jazz player Rudy Gobert tests positive for COVID-19 virus, prompting suspension of NBA season until further notice. (They buried the guy's name in the story.) Edited March 12, 2020 by Sir Teddybar Gut Fullung 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seight Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Before this all went down Brian Winhorst made a point of the NBA's plan to play games where the Coronavirus wasn't would not work because the way the virus spreads, it would just be places where the virus isn't yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobdog Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Without any information to go on, I really think, at this point, the NBA ends its regular season now, and picks back up with the playoffs in maybe two, two and a half months time. That gives everyone enough time to self quarantine and the league enough time to enact an emergency protocol for the playoffs. Might have to also shorten the first two rounds to five game series, especially if the first rounds are played without fans in attendance.

Seight Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 I like how the main conflict so far in The Last Dance is Jerry Krause looking at a core of Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, and Phil Jackson, after winning 5 of the last 7 NBA titles, and concluding "What kind of idiot would I be to not blow this up?" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemini Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Rockets win game one shooting the lights out.

jayrider128 Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 The Lake show played different last night, fantastic intensity. After last nights showing everyone may be back on the Lakers, but the Blazers shot the ball horrendously last night, so I can see a bounce back in a big way. I live in lil ol Maine, so I'm a default C's fan, and have been very happy with the play. But I wont read to much into it because of how big of a joke the 76ers are right now. Disappointing how lame the Heat Pacers series is so far, I thought those teams matched up pretty well. Happy Playoffs everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hidden Posted August 23, 2020 Author Share Posted August 23, 2020 lol i dont know how houston lost..but d'antoni was pissed. i expect rockets to close out though. didnt watch portland/lakers either..but im assuming blazers actually shot well this time around? since it wasnt a blowout? i did see that their bench got outplayed though..gary trent with only 3 points or something too..that wont cut it. im still hoping they can turn it on and make this a series..go 2-2. looks like orlando's run might be over as well..bucks are awake now it seems.

I know Kevin Durant was watching that game full on yelling at the tv like "You see, YOU SEE HOW HE IS??" Nah but Houston would definitely be the better 2nd round opponent, I just really want them to lose tonight bc Rockets and bc winning this series will basically feel like winning a ring to Chris Paul and he deserves that. Especially this year after being exiled to OKC. You're right though, there is nobody for him to guard on the Lakers.

Hidden Posted September 3, 2020 Author Share Posted September 3, 2020 true. i was hoping this would be a blowout, but it looks like okc came to play..but theres always hope they fall apart in the second half! they need to start respecting that one kid they keep leaving open for 3's, too. as for the bucks game....man...that shits tough...you could argue that giannis shouldnt have even gone near jimmy, but which player would see a scorer taking the last minute shot and not try to play defense on him, even if he was already being guarded? on the flipside, he couldve trusted whoever was guarding him, but...sucks. was a misplay in the end. shoulda just stopped beside him with his hand up..idk if he had too much momentum or what.

NaBarney Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 (edited) Those were both such garbage fouls to end the game with. Dragic did nothing wrong at all and the Giannis nothing foul after time expired is the soft of thing they're supposed to ignore, but I guess they didn't want to rob the Heat of a game they should've had won when they were up 6 with half a minute to play & have them lose a playoff game in what would have been the most ridiculous fashion maybe ever all things considered starting from the Jimmy lob at his own basket onward.

Hidden Posted September 3, 2020 Author Share Posted September 3, 2020 lol true. he really did go straight up in the air on middleton. for the hundredth time, seeing those fouls made me wonder...when the fuck did the NBA become so foul heavy at the 3 point line? im all for calling fouls when you step into a player, 'cause of kawhi..but there are so many fucking fouls otherwise, and i swear half the time its with barely any contact + the shooter selling it so well..and i know part of it is because the volume of 3's has increased, so subsequently, fouls in those areas go up as well, but still. i was just talking about it with kidney--not about 3 point fouls, but fouls in general..there seem to be SO many calls in these playoffs..where are the no calls? the, "we're just gonna let them play since its the post season and we want the game to flow," approach? thats actually a good point..things are so touchy right now, and it feels like everything is being called.

NaBarney Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Yeah idk where he goes, (maybe Miami lol) and I shouldn't say his whole team his trash, he has an all-star in Middleton and Brook Lopez does a lot and korver is one of the best shooters ever not that he plays much... So it's not like giannis is exactly perfect, he just couldn't carry a worse than average team by himself. So maybe he stays and they get people around him somehow who can help cover for giannis when his limitations are getting exposed or misses a game or two with an injury.
