    Please stop posting. You serve no point but to spread false and/or poor information. You are the coronavirus of knowledge


    Real mature . How old are you again? Grow up Stay classy Mike from Utah. I giving out info I heard as speculation from Mad dog radio on SiriusXM. Nobody said it was correct. They were just spitting out info from a former NBA PR . It sounds like there is some sort of planning going on now if an things get better in 30 days.

    Then you are just terrible at relaying info. "The latest rumor" implies the consensus most circulated information, distilled from a source in the know to an insider.

    One guy speculating on a radio show is not "the latest rumor" --- Instead, say you heard one guy speculate on one possibility. That is passing along information correctly.

    I am still on the fence whether you are a decent troll or a really dumb, but sincere poster. I go back and forth daily. Sometimes multiple times in the same day. And to that I say bravo

    Fair will be way down the list of priorities. When has there ever been a "fair" season? Injuries aren't fair. Bad calls aren't fair. The leagues job is to entertain and to make profit. Fair is and will always be way, way down the list of priorities. They would never cancel the season because it wouldn't be "fair" -- after the strike they played a 50 game season with almost no training camp and barely any rest in season between games.

    I suggest you watch Adam Silver’s full interview on TNT. Ideas are being discussed with GM’s now.Also I’m not the one that had multiple Twitter accounts banned. You are the one of the few in Tigerdroppings history that got banned on the 2nd post. Congratulations on that honor.

    Have never had a single twitter account banned. Or an account banned on the 2nd post.

    You are the least informed person in history. In a world, hopefully not too far away, you will not be granted a license to speak or write. Oh, how I long for that day

    You are in denial. Don’t have time for you crybaby. I’m ignoring you now. I will carry on as you don’t exist. Best for the forum.

    I think we were supposed to play the Jazz tonight? Or was it tomorrow?

    Blessing in disguise. We did not find this out next week after we had played the Jazz?

    The worst part of the suspension is not knowing whether they are going let us finish our schedule, or if Memphis will back into the 8th seed. I'd be good right now knowing we'll play the whole thing out, just later. It's the not knowing that sucks.

    Wow.

    It's been such a whirlwind. I have never really gotten to sit back and process just how big of a lottery we win with him.

    Lol. This thing benefits the Lakers more than any other team. They are old, have no depth, and have been playing with the effort of already being in the playoffs. The wheels were going to fall off. The Clippers, on the other hand, were coasting. Saving the real steam for the post season. I was convinced the Lakers were going to lose energy and collapse to a younger team that is saving it like LAC or the Bucks. Now they get to rest and go into the postseason fresh or right after a short stint of regular season.

    BI, Zion, and CJ had a net rating of +3 when on the court together. BI and Zion had a +13.4, BI and CJ had a +13.2, Zion and CJ was just +5.4.

    BI and Zion worked. BI and CJ worked. It was CJ and Zion and all three together that didn't work.

    That is what is so tricky about this. You may have it and show no symptoms. The virus just does not trigger on many.

    Yep, there are plenty of people (largely young people) who may have coronavirus but present no symptoms and as a result they're going around in public all the time, still going to public gatherings, still attending events, still visiting elderly relatives, etc, with no idea that the entire time, they're acting as a carrier who is spreading the disease.

    Rudy unintentionally saved thousands of lives. Without his positive test, the NBA tries to play games with no crowds. The NCAA doesn't cancel conference tournaments, etc. Other sports don't follow suit either. The spread is much worse in the universe in which Rudy doesn't test positive. His mistake saved many lives.

    What mistake did Rudy make to catch the virus? Did he only get tested because of the microphone antics?

    Any time I think to myself "This guy couldn't possibly get any dumber", you fail to understand a point and respond and totally prove me wrong again. You are the gift that keeps on giving.
