NBA commissioner Adam Silver concerned wave of positive tests inside bubble could stop restart plan

'Certainly if we had any sort of significant spread within our campus, we would be shut down again,' Silver said

https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/nba-commissioner-adam-silver-concerned-wave-of-positive-tests-inside-bubble-could-stop-restart-plan/

That's the one and the only option they have.
They must stop it before they even start putting players and authorized personnel in Orlando.
If not, they will also put in danger the people living in Orlando especially those who will serve the players while staying there.

We really appreciate what the commissioner is doing, but he can only such, and his hands are also tied and I'm sure he already has this in mind.

Quote from: Reid on July 08, 2020, 03:11:21 AM

Adam Silver knows it and I bet he already talked to the government about the risk.
There must be a percentage of how many players and crew will be infected before they finalize the cease of the restart.

They already have a ball park number and they are closely monitoring it, he had all the backing here specially the local government, but if this goes out of control, he can't do anything but to restart.

Philadelphia 76ers fans, do you believe on this?

Joel Embiid Says He's 'Capable Of Carrying The Team' On Offense

Quote

Joel Embiid addressed the Philadelphia 76ers' offensive struggles ahead of the Orlando restart, saying that the offense should run through him.

He is giving an idea on what their opponent would expect, but can he really make his team successful if the offense runs through him?
Is he the on the status of Kobe and Lebron yet?

That was a serious statement, the NBA season is at stake on this, so I believe they will do everything to prevent the spread of the virus in the venue. When they season is again pause or probably cancelled, that would result to a big loss to the NBA organization and of course with their loss, it would also affect the people working for the organization, particularly the players and the staff.

Definitely, it will be a day-to-day basis scenario because the number of infections suddenly rise. And if swell to a number that everyone will be at greater risk again, I'm sure NBA and Silver will have to step up and shut down again. Go back to the drawing boards and make few adjustments here and there. If it really going to be a big test for the NBA with this new set up.

Worst Contracts Of 2016

1. Chandler Parsons, Memphis Grizzlies -- 4 years, $94.8M
2. Timofey Mozgov, Los Angeles Lakers -- 4 years, $64M
3. Luol Deng, Los Angeles Lakers -- 4 years, $72M
4. Miles Plumlee, Milwaukee Bucks -- 4 years, $52M
5. Matthew Dellavedova, Milwaukee Bucks -- 4 years, $38.4M
6. Joakim Noah, New York Knicks -- 4 years, $72M
7. Evan Turner, Portland Trail Blazers -- 4 years, $75M
8. Kent Bazemore, Atlanta Hawks -- 4 years, $70M
T-9. Solomon Hill, New Orleans Pelicans -- 4 years, $48M
T-9. Ian Mahinmi, Washington Wizards -- 4 years, $64M
11. Nicolas Batum, Charlotte Hornets -- 5 years, $120M
12. Allen Crabbe, Portland Trail Blazers -- 4 years, $75M

Mozgov does ring a bell to me, but in fairness he won a ring with Lebron in 2016 right? So he did accomplished a lot in his career. And I would say that he was a victim of circumstances of the NBA centre evolution. He wasn't able to cope with new young generations of centers that can shoot 3, in short he was still part of the old school of centers and then his knee injury.

Josh Giddey: The Best NBA Prospect You’ve Never Heard Of

Anyone heard of him? yeah, the article headlines probably right. They've said it'll be the next Luka or Ben Simmon. Cheesy

I've never heard of the man, but got me interested and do some research.

Kid came from Australia, play Point Guard and great in passing. But I think it's too early to make a statement and time will tell. Better hope not to see another Dante Exum.

Haven't heard of him either.
Australian kid, great passing. All I can think about is Ben Simmons.
I hope he is also good at defense just like Ben.
I will try to watch some of his highlights later.

Fortunately, if I don't miss some updates, there are no reports yet where an NBA player got reinfected again with the virus.

Yeah, it must be the immune system of our body after being infected once.

Quote from: chaser15 on July 07, 2020, 06:53:27 PM

I'm more worried about these players that got positive last June and this month. They shouldn't be allowed to play the whole month of August. I know they are important players but the virus is tricky. I don't have the guts to defend a guy that got positive just last month although he was recovered now lol.

I doubt they will be allowed to play at a 1-month span.
Recovery and 14-day quarantine to say they are really clear from the virus.
It will take almost a month.

I think he meant for a player that got positive, recovered, and then the virus was re-activated. There are cases like that, especially in South Korea. As for searching, I found no NBA player and hope there will no cases of that.

Also guys remember that there will be regular season games as well, mostly not going to change too much, maaaaybe 8th seed in the west but thats it, so the regular season will not be "too" important, still important due to seeding positions but almost all teams that are going to playoffs are already decided. So if one of your favorite and best player is out due to covid, and even if he feels awesome, you can still wait him around until he joins, don't know the situation on if anyone can join later on with a clear bill of health, but he can just come with the team if he is clear and just wait out few more games and get better. Or just play very very limited minutes like 10-12 until he feels better. That way you both got to keep your player for the future and playoffs, but you also do not put too much pressure on him the very first moment games starts.

Here's a complete list of NBA players opting out of 2020 season return

Nikola Jokic is not in the list. There's still hope... read the details below.

This is what I like in NBA protocols regarding players that got infected with the virus.

They required Jokic to report two negative tests from Serbia, and twice more back in the United States, before being cleared to travel with the Nuggets. It's risky for a just a recently infected person to rejoin the team even they are declared clear from the virus that's why multiple tests within a given timeframe are necessary.

Fortunately, if I don't miss some updates, there are no reports yet where an NBA player got reinfected again with the virus.

Denver head coach Michael Malone said Wednesday that Jokic (illness) "feels great" while recovering from the coronavirus and is on track to join the Nuggets when the team heads to Orlando next week for the resumption of the 2019-20 NBA season, Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com reports.

These days even if you are as good as Ben Simmons, without a three point shooting skill you are going to hit a cap that usually other players can pass above you. Even Giannis managed to put a bit of three pointer into his arsenal and now he shoots a bit of it, not too much but enough that you can't just leave him wide open like you can leave Ben Simmons wide open.

I am sure he is a great kid and he will have his time, but unless Giddey puts a bit of three pointer into his arsenal there is really not that much he can do in NBA that others can't. Also playing on a league is definitely much better than playing in college for personal growth but not so much for draft. Luka Doncic was the youngest MVP ever and I said he was 100% clear cut no doubt first pick easily, yet he went third (by the team that had fifth pick on a trade) so you may realize that its harder to get scouts attention that way, but it definitely improves your play into a much better way.

His best times in basketball was with the Rockets, probably injuries are the main reason on the drop of stats.

Allow me to use the the reference for screenshot.

Quote from: yazher on July 07, 2020, 09:02:49 AM

Chandler Parsons was the worse overrated NBA player in his time because he hasn't shone any impressive games after all those years nothing to be highlighted at all. nor he gives Memphis any competitive playoff match when he was there. even though when he was traded to Houston, his game was changed and didn't bring any competitive match up to the other players. He was just worse than the other players on the list.

As you can see his stats above you, his numbers are already going down and during his time with the Dallas Mavericks, he was already injured many times that made him miss a lot of games. I just don't understand why the Memphis signed him with that figure, I think Memphis are good at signing injured players, because they also did it with Conley for $153 million in 5 years.
