NBA: Zero positives out of 346 players tested for coronavirus in Orlando bubble

The NBA and the National Basketball Players Association said Monday that coronavirus tests of 346 players at the league's bubble campus in Orlando, Florida, since July 13 have yielded zero positive results.

Very good news indeed.
Could it be Westbrook whose last diagnosed as positive?

They should keep this kind of pace.
Now, no one should be allowed without being proven negative with the virus.
It should not happen anymore. Stop those individual deliveries too.
Give their requested foods as long as it is within the bubble premises.

That is a good news actually so I guess they can start their the game? Viewers will surely be online and I think no more homecourt advantage fans for fans are not present? LOL, hope to see NBA will going to finish the event and we will see who's team will going to champion. Organizers will surely just need to secure that will players will not get infected by the virus.

So this is it, once the scrimmage start we can feel that NBA is already in the air.
Everyone is waiting for this time and that is a good news for everyone as we will not be worried anymore about the certainly of the NBA season.

Reminder guys, if you guys are looking to be on the NBA futures, start betting before the season starts as it might be be gone and you will not have a chance to bet on your favorite team.

Yes, there will be a scrimmage game but it seems like there's no betting available on it.

I looked at my sportsbook but there's no betting line and the certain game are not displayed, instead I see this in the in play betting.

Anyone has an idea how this game is done?

Lol. I'm sure he feels it too but he just doesn't show it. It's another part of him that's makes him even more dangerous. He's so focused and doesn't usually get his emotion get the better of him during games. Men, I'm getting flashbacks of last season's game against the sixers when the ball bounced its way to the net.

Goosebumps.
Others may say it is not the perfect shot. Questioning what if it didn't went in.
IMO, just getting a good position to shoot the ball is already a great thing. What more if you can shoot it?

It's the scrimmage.

I saw that image but in other news.

Yes, looking at their schedule, surely it is about their pre-season games.

July 23 against Dallas Mavericks
July 25 against Orlando Magic
July 27 against Washington Wizards

As per the discussion about ERAs, I think after MJ, Kobe, and Lebron, it should be between Durant, Leonard, and Antetokounmpo.

I preferred Giannis but I will give 2-3 season before I can tagged him as the next face of the era. And aside from that, he should at least reached the finals.

Good news NBA fans!
Sources said the 346 players who has undergone covid test, none of them came out positive since last week. It seems that we're in a good position for the season resume and it's getting closer.

Im not sure If this is true, I'm pretty sure someone is managing his Facebook account. 3 days left? I think he's referring to the pre-season resume.

This is indeed a good news for having a negative result on swab makes the season came back more clearer, But I also wonder on what is lebron referring to that message since I don't see any official announcement regarding on nearly resumes of the season since for last time I heard they are just planning all things to resume as near as they can.

Giannis is not playing like the traditional GOAT in mindset but his skills and his stats are definitely showing next level GOAT in the future. The difference is, dude doesn't have that killer mindset that he goes out and wins and destroys.

I couldn't agree more, we've seen what he can do, he can be slowed down and the team's system is dead.
Well, hopefully there's a changes, Lebron also started like that when he was still younger, he has a great stats but he is not matured enough when playing, the reason why he was pissed and transferred to miami heat to try to find the experience and get a championship, and he succeeded with that.

I think if Giannis will have the same experience, he might transfer as well and pair with great players in the NBA to form a championship team.

Quote from: redsun114 on July 20, 2020, 04:48:14 PM

Check out last season for example, it was basically just a season that they dominated and they were going great but on playoffs they just screw up and they couldn't go too further, normally you would expect them to be in the finals when they dominate the regular season that much.

Hopefully he will get into that mindset one day but Giannis is such a good person, he is such a cute and sweet person, all of his instagram stories and all interviews you can see how awesome he is, when you are going for that GOAT level discussion, you need killer mindset that makes you look like a jackass and an asshole until you end your career when people realize you are not a bad person at all.

The last season was a disappointment, I got so hype by this team and I even bet against Leonard though I really like the guy because of the Bucks hype, but I was wrong, so I don't think I'll ever do that again this time, not betting against him anymore as Leonard is the guy who has the real killer instinct.

He would surely come into that time but for now he might not really be thinking that much to target out to be GOAT and just minding that he should play well into all games that he would participate on
but basing of in performance then theres no doubt that this guy is already in next in line to be the best in next decade to come depending on how he do strive and pursue it out.
He had the potential and to think that this guy is still young and there's still lots of years for him to established out when he do tend to make a name for himself.

That's being proved the last time they've faced Raptors with Kawhi, Giannis still young and his killing mindset are still in the developing stage.

It's really annoying but eventually he will manage to be matured finding its way to his own legacy.

He needs to be like that inside the court, just like how MJ did, he's keeps killing all those stars who are rising from his era.

Lebron is already popular, he will be GOAT someday just like MJ and Kobe, not sure who among the active NBA players now will also be GOAT someday and will enjoy that kind of market value, I think Leonard has to shut Lebron's team this season for him to gain some spot in the future.

It's still too early to think of the next goat but I guess many will agree to me if I say that Giannis could reach a certain high for his career. He's still young and there's more to improve and experience to gain.

Its per era as I think of it.
Jordan then Kobe then Lebron was the last and continuing.
They are all great at their own time where they are dominating and their names are over the roof.
So for the next one it could really be Kawhi.
Giannis is still in his young career while Kawhi is making his way as a prime.

But they want Kawhi to prove something which makes it more difficult for others to accept his greatness.

I have nothing against Kawhi, he has proven to be a candidate for the next era's goat after Lebron maybe. Maybe that could be Lebron, Kawhi, and then Giannis. But I'm sure that if the other two great players start getting old, we have Giannis to count in.

He can, I have no doubts about his potential. However, he need to make sure to avoid injuries that would ruined most of his career or worse his entire journey. You know... maintaining a healthy, and robust body (like what Bron did) is just as important as chasing after the ring, records, fame, and whatnot.

Yes, one injury can ruin his entire career and potential.

Quote

LeBron James set another record Saturday night when his 2003-04 Upper Deck rookie card sold for $1.845 million at Goldin Auctions.

How about that?! We are in pandemic and he is still alive. Grin

Lebron's autographs price is going to be expensive in 20 more years.
How about his rookie shoes? Where are they? Gotta find it!

Quote

It's the most expensive basketball card ever purchased and the priciest trading card of any kind in the modern era (since 1980).

For the most part I do not recommend people to buy sports memorabilia since the prices change very rapidly, however in the case of LeBron it is obvious his stuff is going to keep being valuable during the next decades so if you can get some of his stuff for a good price and then hold it for a decade then you can earn good money, in a way this is similar to what we are already doing with bitcoin so it should not be weird for anyone on the forum to try to make money this way.

Looking at his facial expression, I doubt that. Grin

I hope we can see him play until he is 40 years old. where most of the NBA players concluded their careers.

Playing still at this stage and still have the same intensity or still have the same passions with agilities to convert. It's really remarkable once done.

I cannot say that it is not likely to happen 'cause he got a pretty healthy, and well-built body. With his maintenance, he might even be able to play long enough to catch up with his eldest son.

The record he sets about this rookie card is insane that would make one of the reasons to be the Goat after he retires.

For sure it will be part of those publicity that will be credited for him being the next GOAT.

But still there are some few rooms left for Lebron to improve his records because he still got some few years to play.

If he continue to stay being healthy, there are still lots for his own records, achievements can be added under his legacy.

I hope we can see him play until he is 40 years old. where most of the NBA players concluded their careers.
