Regular Degular Redux - 2019-20 NBA Season thread 2

yeah outlook does not seem great

since the mavericks won the last NBA game that was played, technically they are the 2020 NBA champions

has your love for luka supplanted your love for the nuggets?

no I actually forgot who won that game and I was hoping it was denver, but I looked it up and was committed to posting that joke and had to stick with it

fair lol

lol

thoughts and prayers to your son, kev

Reporting with @WindhorstESPN: Nuggets star Nikola Jokic tested positive for the coronavirus in Serbia and his return to the U.S. is temporarily delayed. He’s been asymptomatic since testing positive last week. Jokic is expected to be cleared to travel to Denver within a week.

wow when he needed you most

I hate Djokovic so much

I don’t see why players getting covid outside the bubble would prevent players from going into the bubble

little honey will probably be ok. big honey I’d worry more about

Yeah asymptomatic for a week.

Main guy I’m worried about getting covid is Boban

I hate Djokovic so much

If you guys haven’t been following it, Djokovic’s wife posted a thing about covid being caused by 5G and Djokovic did a livestream with some quack who said we can use our minds to purify water and change molecules

thats bad

Lmao I gotta dive into this drama

how low can you go

I was suicidally depressed after federer blew those match points at wimbledon last year and to see Djokovic insert himself into the plague narrative like this is really surreal

Would Djokovic even make 50% of his free throws? If not, then he can go to hell. I don't care.

djokovic is the absolute worst.

Fuck djokovic; <3 rafa4ever.

At forefront of Bradley’s decision to remain w/ his family is the well-being of the oldest of his 3 children. His 6-year old son has a history of struggling to recover from respiratory illnesses and would’ve been unlikely to be medically cleared to enter bubble with his family. https://t.co/yputDg2VJp

yeah Trevor Arica sitting it out to deal with a custody battle, so far I can’t believe find the slightest blame on anyone skeptical about this plan (except kyrie)

yeah hard to have too much confidence in it

The @Lakers losing Avery Bradley is a tough loss and will make it more difficult for them to win the NBA championship.

Heard the other day that Djokovic is an anti-vaxxer

xp hot take!

Disney workers are petitioning asking Disney World not to reopen to the public in July.
Today Orange County, Fla., had more new COVID cases than 38 full states. https://t.co/M1bv20IAOs

this shit aint happening

i'm still trying to figure out the exact event that would cause them to stop.

disneyworld should certainly not open to the public, but the nba isn't the public.

I also worry about the nba starting up as a bad signal to an already just dying America: hey sports are back! Things are fine! no virus! As you were! not that that’s what they’d intend but, well, you know

yeah definitely valid

i would hope the coverage would hammer home the precautions they are taking

Sports might help people pass the time at home and feel less crazy. It would be nice if they could make it work in a reasonable way

i was feeling good about the nba plan until the disastrous last few days in the sun belt. i think the plan is still reasonable, but it might end up out of their control.

see this is why they shouldve gone with my plan, sports island

You realize COVID-19 has spread to pretty much every populated island, including places as remote as Easter Island (aka Rapa-Nui)? This virus gets around.

sports. island.

stick to sports (island)

Vincanity officially retiring.

weird career overall. saved his rep by being a cool vet
