I guess I'd better wait for the final decision of the NBA organization, the crisis in the US due to the corona virus has increase, they already surpass China now, so they better prepare for this than thinking on the business.

Whatever their decision, I am okay with it, I'm just here at home to watch them play again live, but I just can't also not think of the current situation as people are in big struggle right now, and yet they are thinking of resuming their business?

Life of people should really be the first priority rather than business.Well its an easy thing to say but really hard for the organization yet we know on how much they would lost but

with this current condition i dont see a reason that they should push it through.Im shocked that US surpassed China and Italy for a short period of time and this isnt the right time
to think up about business.

This is becoming worst day by day.

I am even surprised too, I thought Italy would have the biggest number of cases but they were surpass by the US, maybe because the measure done by the US is not so strict that even the NBA are still considering of continuing the season with the idea they presented.

True.
I have seen a lot of politician news and they really want to continue working even with other countries already doing the quarantine.
I won't even risk my life for that.
There will always be another job if they fire me.
It is not about making money anymore but staying healthy and alive.

NBA could always continue the game anytime.
I think it is being on the top of all the countries which they want to prove.
They don't want to lose that.

^^, Yes, US and Italy are now the new ground zero, not very good, China has somewhat control the spread of the virus, while US are rising very fast and there have been high profile personalities and athletes getting infected.

@bbc.reporter - I don't know if high profile personalities are more willing to be a pawn in this pandemic by the government. But I do agree that this is getting uglier by the day. Lock downs, self-isolation, it's madness right now even here in our country.

For those without discipline.
It is actually easy to prevent it by just staying at home. Don't let any visitors come in. That way, they might do the same.
Hate me all they want but I won't get near them. I won't even open the door for them.

Trump even let some workers to get in work while doing social distancing. I still won't approve with that.
The economy can stand again later on but it will not if you don't have any people to rise the economy.
I am not against him or anything. It is just that people should really stay at home for now.
It is the government problem now on how they could give what the people need. That is the use of a government right?

About Italy, Oh! let us not go there. People are like adventurers wanting to see the world without people and cars outside. Grin

NBA is considering options regarding finishing this current season. Latest news is that we might get some kind of Finals series in Las Vegas

Quote

The Las Vegas tournament could be a play-in tournament for lower-seeded teams if the league decided to cancel the rest of the season.
The tournament could then be a best-of-five series for the first round and then a one-and-done tournament to determine the two teams moving to the NBA Finals, according to individuals familiar with the planning said.
CNBC says that the tournament and finals would be held at the Thomas & Mack Center and the Cox Pavilion, where the Summer League is held, though News 3 was unable to immediately confirm this information.
Games following the restart of the season would likely be played without an in-person audience.

https://news3lv.com/news/local/nba-execs-considering-las-vegas-to-host-league-finals-report-says

This would be far from perfect, but I guess it would still be better option that completely cancelling the season. Personally, it will be miracle if they can pull off this. It will be interesting to hear players opinion, as they are the ones that will be endangered the most, and consequently. Maybe players could be in some kind of quarantine during finals series, to minimise the risk of spreading the virus.

Another bad news from the NBA, KAT is now also infected, why is it most NBA stars were getting infected by the virus?
With this new cases in the organization, I doubt the management would still push to resume the season soon.

Ouch. The infection is increasing.

Contact tracing will be the key to know how they go it but it's difficult to implement it.

Very difficult to trace that up, there are lots of possibilities on how those players get this virus, not just physical contact with people who already carrying it but there are many other ways for this virus being transferred.
Lockdown will help a lot of keeping the spread so best to follow this for now.

That's correct, and it seems like China have already found the solution to this pandemic, they are asking the US to talk to them, hopefully Trump would seek help from China and forget about the war just to save the humanity.

There is no confirmation yet that KAT was also infected, it was the mother that was infected according to the news.

As of now there is no news yet adding on the NBA players that was already infected with the virus, but unfortunately now US surpass China in terms of number of cases of COVID-19.

The skpetical me. There might be a conspiracy to control global public panic through the use of famous celebrities and athletes to pretend that they have the coronavirus and show that they are ok. This virus might be more deadly than what the authorities tell us, I reckon.

Some good news here.
https://www.nba.com/article/2020/03/26/reports-christian-wood-almost-recovered-covid-19

Quote

Detroit Pistons forward Christian Wood was the third player in the NBA to test positive for the new coronavirus, doing so on March 15. However, it appears the big man is just about healed up from COVID-19 and is reportedly closing in on a clean bill of health.

That's great news, He's the first player from the NBA to have fully recovered as stated by his agent, Chris Wood announced he tested postive later than Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchel, but neither of both players have recovered, maybe theirs is just around the corner.

https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/pistons-christian-wood-becomes-first-known-nba-player-cleared-from-coronavirus-per-report/

This next week might be the good news for those two players since they are like the older brothers who are infected first.

More great news.
NBA players are really trying their best to inform more people about the virus and are also donating to help.
Here is one from Steph Curry asking one of the best in the virus field.

Karl Anthony Towns is still virus-free up to this point. He might undergo a test. If I'm not mistaken, KAT isn't living with his parents so the test isn't necessary to do. Like in any other country, those who will just show symptoms will be tested as a priority and for those suspected ones or got contact even a bit for those infected ones are meant for 2 weeks quarantine period. There's no report that KAT will be tested too. When she talks to her mother at the hospital, he is in full protective gear.

The virus should be taken really seriously. Others don't understand how deadly it is that's why they are comfortable going outside or not following the government protocols.

On nba front, I think for now there are just too many proof that playing basketball which is a contact sport is a very bad idea during this time.

You can even be infected without contact if you touch something which an infected person already touch that's how contagious this disease is. Suspending the NBA games is for the good of everybody, players and it's fans.

Quote from: Captain Corporate on March 26, 2020, 03:39:25 PM

Rudy Gobert not only mocked corona, but also he probably infected Christian Wood as well, dude was guarding him all game and he got a test done and he turned out positive right after guarding Gobert, is there a chance he got it some other way? Sure, do we really want to risk it? Absolutely not.

Gobert is also a victim here. I even don't like the reaction of Donovan for blaming Gobert on why he got positive also because he did not know in the first place that he got infected. Dude is young and things happening around have not set in to his mind, he's only thinking of himself.

LOL. Don't blame Gobert that he's the source of Covid-19 in NBA

It just happened that Rudy Gobert was the first one to be tested. There's also a possibility that it's the other way around and Gobert was the one who got infected and shows the first symptoms. Stop with Gobert now dude. There are players, staff and other individuals that got infected even no direct contact with Gobert. Remember that it will take 2-3 weeks or even more before a person will show symptoms of the virus.

Instead of focusing too much on Gobert, pray and hope for the best. Your grudge to Gobert, as I see on your other post will not help or ease the situation that the world is facing right now.

I hope the vaccine will be shared faster.

So is it also possible that the vaccine was already created by a specific country but was not just shared to other countries.

I've seen movies, those countries who discover the vaccine seem to prioritize their people, and since China now are looking good with few or no cases being listed, I guess we can assume that they had already found the vaccine.

Any thoughts?

Chance that they've already got the cure or treatment is high since they are already getting good progress with the situations inside huwan,

We need to pray and hope that they will share and reveal everything in order to penetrate and help other countries who are also having
problem containing this virus especially those poor ones.

It doesn't really live on air for hours, it just has particles that can stay in a place for hours, however that is usually docile because the biggest one is still contact with human. We should learn the virus we are fighting, there are ways you can get virus a lot easier and there are ways that is harder to get the virus, one of the easiest ways is human contact intimately, so when you kiss someone that is a very high chance, but when you have corona and cough on a phone for example and put it down, 5 hours later someone else picks it up, can they get it?

Certainly they may, but it is a much much lower chance. NBA is postponed literally because of this, since players contact each other all the time, everyone pushes each other, dunks on each other, steals and dribbles and whatever, so there is just waaaay too many contact to continue.

The longest period for this virus to live when it is on a metal/handrails etc. next would be on fabric and 5 minutes if it would be on human hands.I didnt know that this one could live on air but i believe it would be on the surface where those droplets stick in not literally airborne.

I cant see any possible way to stop this but to strictly implement to stay home and wont hang out even with your team and as you said this is fast when theres human to human transmission.

This pandemic wont stop if people would recognize on what things are the appropriate to be done.Self-discipline is one of the issue.

We are facing really worst thing as many peoples just inffected because they are not stopping to meet others we also have few cases in last three days inffected person meets his son and wife now all family in under this trouble I am feeling now this years NBA is going really terrible like Golden State Warriors.
