Here's some news about the MVP for those who missed him already.

Kawhi Leonard feeling good, but Clippers plan to be 'smart' about usage

He is feeling good, has practiced with his teammates already, and I can say "HE IS NOW READY FOR THE PLAYOFFS". (I skip the season though)

Yes, they will be using load management on him again hehehe.

The cases in Florida are pumping, what is the chance that there might be another shutdown there?

My bet for now is the West teams will take the crown. I think this is not yet time for Giannis to gain a championship.

I'm hoping Giannis and his squad will now finally erase their team's choking moments every playoffs.

This upcoming playoffs will be their 3rd consecutive run with a good season record.

Raptors last year gave them a 4-0 straight win which no one is expected since they won the first 2 games. That losing experience changed Giannis as he is now taking three point shots (Raptors able to hold him whenever he is attacking inside. Bucks offense became weaken because of that).

The reason why Gobert was getting so much trouble wasn't the fact that he got the virus, there are millions of people who got the virus and that is fine, if you are careful you could still get it, if you are not careful.. well you are only human and we should forgive you anyway, it is not like you WANTED to get sick, that is silly.

However one thing is for certain, he touched all the microphones one day to mock the virus and that was idiotic, that is what prompted the anger, you can't just touch all the microphones like virus is not a serious thing, hundreds of thousands of people died because of this virus, of course it wasn't this bad back in that day but he could have used is brain a bit and just respected the issue and move on. He just made it like a fun thing just like a small child would do. That was the real cause, the the fact that he was the source or anything.

It seems like he intentionally test himself by touching the mic although it was not advisable.

He thinks he is a superhuman and that was just in the early days I guess when China was still leading the numbers, but hopefully he learn his lessons, people has to forget and forgive, virus are everywhere now, and let him correct his mistakes and let's hope he will not make any kind of idiotic move again and will mature as the season opening is very crucial.

But they will need to earn it so that it will be a more juicy win.

It's an honor where fans will share the enjoyment for the team and the celebrations is to fullest.

It will be a rough road.
Clippers, Nuggets, Mavericks and then there is the East with strong teams.

Not an easy task, as there are teams who also have superb lineups that composed of superstars.

Celtics and 76ers also have young players.

Giannis still have lots of seasons to play, he's still young and the talents are continuously growing, but
for now experienced from the west still dominating.

But who knows, something may turn out that is not anticipated. Like Simmons becoming a sharp shooter. Cheesy

This is true, we don't know what will happened next, the same one last year, it's unexpected injuries for the
Warriors, ends up losing with the Raptors.

I just can't remove that mindset because even if they're just going their job, a fan will always be fan even if you're not facing your idol but if you're facing one of them, you'll admire and feel the need to do him a favor.

Tough choice, yeah. But as far as the job's obligation goes I don't think that the security invovle with the incident is worthy of his position now. Might be harsh, however, you just can't compromise health matters over a pleasure of allowing your idol go over the boundaries. It is okay, if it won't put anyone at risk but it is a life-threatening virus they are dealing with, smh, not to mention that everyone in the area doesn't have a healthy body as them Undecided

I still think that whatever comes in the way of Lakers, they will try to overcome the challenges and personally, I also wanted the Lakers to win a championship again.

It's a great tribute to Kobe if they will win this one for him, and for sure aside from that reason, LeBron also
wanted to add more ring from his back while he still have this opportunity.

It sure will be.

I think everyone who watches the 2020 NBA Season feels that the Lakers will really take it all BUT for some reason, we know that the underdogs or other teams are not gonna let that happen because everybody got their pride on the line. I still think that whatever comes in the way of Lakers, they will try to overcome the challenges and personally, I also wanted the Lakers to win a championship again.

Lets just hope that none of the players that will play through the New NBA season are healthy and well.

Healthy bodies for everyone especially in the playoffs and Finals.
Why?
So there will be no reasoning like what happened in the last Finals game.
e.g. Durant injured, Klay Thompson injured and so on.
We know some analysts will use that kind of move just to make a scoop.
Now there is the virus. They could also use it to make themselves feel good if a star is unhealthy and they are a fan of it. Grin

Woo, why some of them making the situation worse and don't just abide the simple rules given to them?
Huh

My point.
You hed been given a chance. Why waste it?
Its not like prison. You still have the alternative to pick what you want
Why go so far for deliveries?
Are you not that comfortable with what they give?
Is it something your stomach cannot take in?
Isn't it better than not having a job? Which most people are longing for.

I think being a security staff, they are also fan of the players so they just allowed it to happen as a favor given to their idol.

I don't think they have to do that besides they are paid to do their jobs rightfully and if the higher-ups told them what their jobs are then they should have abode on it, they should set aside idolizing for a moment than breaking the protocols because they may be sanctioned as well.

I just can't remove that mindset because even if they're just going their job, a fan will always be fan even if you're not facing your idol but if you're facing one of them, you'll admire and feel the need to do him a favor.

They take the situation lightly. They think a "simple" task won't hurt at all.

So unfair to those who are following the rule. Hopefully, that would be the last.

Exactly. Unfair indeed.

At this point in time, 2 weeks before the resumption of NBA games even 1 case is crucial but with the case of Jukic where he tested negative just one week after the announcement that he had the virus, i think those who tested positive could still make it. Hope that the NBA will strictly implement protocols so that this resumption will go on as plan.

I really hope that this upcoming games are not suspended and they will continue as they have announced its schedule. anyway, those who cannot play will have a chance cheering for their team at their respected homes. This game should not be delayed anymore because they need to end this season as soon as possible. However, they need to be careful and not to end up being infected by the virus. so the season will gonna end up smoothly.

Suspension will not happen, they can still handle the situation and they have spent time, effort, and money to get into this phase and after this phase will be the NBA season resumption, so just be positive, the NBA season will resume.

They are learning from their mistakes, as we can read on the news, they are now putting some measures to ensure no violation will be committed again as that would result to a possible spread of the virus.

They are losing millions of dollars and they again spent millions of dollars for this preparation, I don't see the words "FAILED TO RESUME".

I was eager to see Nikola Jokic after his Covid-19 quarantine. He has gained some weight, I wish his health to be 100%.

Same here, his old picture was criticize by some people but he looks good with the new one, it look like he really gained some weight.
Nikola Jokic has to be healthy, good thing he is back now and he can play when the NBA will resume, their playoffs experience might become a key for their success this season, and they are one of the underrated team that we can trust to at least give some kind of thrill whoever teams they will face.

Bucks on the other hand had the best record but it seems like their loss last playoffs was still fresh in the mind of the fans, Giannis needs to prove he can also dominate in the playoffs to gain the trust back, personally, I'm not backing the bucks to win, even in the East.

The only thing that can dominate them on the East is I think the Heat with Adebayo, Butler and Igoudala and they have 2-0 against the Bucks though Adebayo wasn't still on the bubble at Orlando.

Probably, but playoffs is a different thing, while Heat have dominated the Bucks, they also struggle against other teams in the East.
With the rank of the Bucks now, they would not meet in the first round but possible they would in the 2nd round, that if the Heat will be able to beat their first round opponent. Hopefully all the key players of the Heat will be fully healthy during the playoffs so we can see some very competitive series.

Also, let's consider the adjustment, there's no home court edge here as they are playing in Orlando.

Right now it's a game of those who have a good roster team and mostly that will be the case but overall it is a team effort. Lakers is for sure has the best roster right now knowing how healthy Davis, LBJ, and the twin towers McGee and Howard to say the least. With the strict compliance on NBA by now, I think those that will able to play is for sure healthy.

I still think that whatever comes in the way of Lakers, they will try to overcome the challenges and personally, I also wanted the Lakers to win a championship again.

Lakers is no doubt the best team in the NBA right now, although they didn't hold the best record in the NBA in overall but Lebron is a proven champion, plus they have Davis who had a playoff experience and very hungry to win a championships.

In sportsbook they are the favorites so they might likely win, but you are right, there are underdog that could give a surprise, like the NUggets or the Clipperes.

They are, and what I like with Lebron James now is that the Lakers has a great chemistry and Lebron does not need to do it alone this time unlike in the past that he usually carry the team to win, he got Davis on his side who is a dominant big man, this man can dropped 20 to 30 points, depending on the need, so they really are a threat. I feel that the competition this playoffs and in the NBA finals is better compared to the previous.

Lakers is so strong when Lebron and Davis is inside the court but? the team stats slow down when they are setting down so I think for them to get the best record on next opening they should get a good 2nd squad so that whenever lebron and davis is at rest they can rely on their second men on the court. I think they need to let go of some of their players so that they can accumulate a more stronger player on next season.

No doubt for Davis and Lebron, they are a class A superstars, I don't even see a single game where they struggle, we can really rely on them and I understand if majority would bet on the Lakers to win because they are just so good this season.
