    Found an earlier post in the thread by none other than theHCP himself where silver indicated that the older coaches might not even be on the bench in orlando

    What about the age of the referees? Not that I wouldn't mind a few of them not being able to be on the court *cough Scott Foster cough*

    That's why Robin Lopez wanted to trade rooms, so he could get his hands on this uni.

    The thing is after people stay in place for so long 2/3 months then mingling starts everyone knew the numbers would go way up, plus there are many more test being done now.
    This thing isn't leaving tell a vaccine come about. Retired goots like myself can easily stay home and I do need to be more cautious and am wearing mask. But Im not going to hole up like a end timer/ survivalist for another 6mo. to a year.
    When hospitalizations and deaths exceed capacity again is when they will roll back. But in Oregon the % of positives remains very low even though many more test are being done.

    I've been looking for a smart ring like this for a while now, I think the smart watches are ugly AF.

    There have been a bunch come and go on Amazon. They get posted for sale, a bunch of fake reviews praising it, then the real reviews come in saying they're junk.

    If this is like the others the metal will wear off and sweat will ruin them.

    The ring the NBA is going to use has only one very fake review.

    That's a ton of importance and trust being put on a piece of tech with no consumer real world testing.

    You just need something that fits better with your whole pimp-dog persona. I'm thinking this watch band, maybe with a couple of diamonds added, might work:

    Maybe add a Nike swoosh?

    Florida is hit with record-high daily COVID-19 infections as forecast model warns it's on track to become the next coronavirus epicenter and risks being 'the worst it has ever been' - as nine other states also see surges
    • The number of new coronavirus cases in Florida surged to 3,207 on Thursday
    • The daily case count surpassed the previous record set on Monday when more than 2,700 cases were confirmed
    • At least some of the increase reflects expanded testing but the rate of positive tests also has been ticking upward in recent days
    • New COVID-19 forecasts from the PolicyLab at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia indicates Florida could become the next large epicenter
    • The model is forecasting a surge in new cases in areas like Miami and Tampa
    • The warnings for Florida come as several other states this week have also seen record high number of daily infections and hospitalizations
    • Texas also recorded a record high number of cases and hospitalizations on Thursday
    • Alabama, Arizona, California, Nevada, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon and South Carolina have all also seen surges in the last week

    Even a somewhat minor injury that requires an MRI could be a problem.

    Is the NBA going to keep medical equipment and personnel onsite at Disney, equipment and personnel that could be desperately needed in the surrounding community, or do they send an injured player to a overwhelmed medical facility?

    Again, imagine something like Nurk's injury, something that requires hospitalization and surgery.
