    New York has declared a state of emergency. I guess it is possible we could see some games played without fans while others will be played with fans.

    I say just cancel the rest of the season, and award the team with the best current record the title.

    Sounds fair.

    Blazers should cancel the season and declare themselves champion.

    https://time.com/5610878/2018-2019-flu-season/

    In total, the CDC estimates that up to 42.9 million people got sick during the 2018-2019 flu season, 647,000 people were hospitalized and 61,200 died. That’s fairly on par with a typical season, and well below the CDC’s 2017-2018 estimates of 48.8 million illnesses, 959,000 hospitalizations and 79,400 deaths.

    https://corona.help/     4110 deaths so far.

    So why wasn't the NBA reacting that way to the flu? It's not to make like of C-19, but it's a legitimate question.

    .01% death rate vs 3.4% death rate, I would imagine.

    I really wish people would stop looking at Trump's twitter for news. This is infuriating.

    Why do you think that post had ANYTHING to do with Trump?
    It's infuriating when people politicize things when there is no need to.
