Utah has no fucking chance to do anything in the bubble. Their two best players hate each other and the bad vibes are obvious.

cad, that's bugging me too; especially in the replay when the camera is in a position where you can't see player's faces and it's impossible to tell who's who!i don't know why they don't have the name and the slogan below?it's leading to unintentionally awkward moments where Black Lives Matter is passing to Say Her Name and then getting blocked by Ally

you gotta think that whatever shot the league had to add a bunch of new fans who tuned in bc of the high quality of the bubble product compared to other situations in sports is gonna be flattened by no new viewers having any clue who is who out there

bubble layers
Ballmer & Silver are in the bubble's second/outer layer, which is why they're behind plexiglass. They don't have to quarantine/can go in & out, but they do get tested & are only allowed in upper bowl areas behind glass, never down on the floor anywhere near the inner layer people https://t.co/hUqAOjQEV8— Rachel Nichols (@Rachel__Nichols) July 31, 2020

J.R. Smith predicted a Lakers vs. Heat Finals back in February.
Call me crazy, but this evidence doesn't convince me that J.R. Smith has a brilliantly analytical basketball mind that can sift through thousands of variables and arrive at a sound prediction of the NBA's future.

Inside, we devised all kinds of ways to pass the time. Once, I played Heads Up! (the charades-like game where you hold your phone up to your forehead) with Kemba Walker of the Boston Celtics at the end of an interview. The answer on the screen was “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone,” and the clue he gave me was “They be flying on brooms and shit.” Ja Morant of the Grizzlies and I would play Connect Four on the iPhone (he still hasn't beaten me), and Chris Paul and Russell Westbrook—who were traded for each other before the season began—would team up and play spades on their phones against Chris's brother, C.J., and his mom, Robin. Westbrook in particular was a model bubble citizen. He always made sure his hotel room was “clean and in good shape,” and he reportedly left an $8,000 tip for the housekeepers. (When we spoke, Westbrook confirmed he wrote a thank-you note and left a good tip, but wouldn't confirm the amount: “The money doesn't matter. I just like to do the right thing. That's it.”)
