    I know I don't interact with you much on here but you were the first person I thought of when I heard the league was suspending games. I hope for a speedy resolution and that you get the rest of the 82 games when the league resumes. Really sorry that you have to go through this situation.

    If they don’t resume the season next month, maybe they start next season with this season’s records. Ultimately a 100 game season?

    Maybe that's what happens to someone when they are so grossly overpaid. CJ was only worth 2/3 of that extension.

    If they can get to a point where no more players are testing positive in 3-4 weeks, they should see if they can play a few more games and then do a NCAA style one-and-done bracket for the playoffs (TV only, no live audience).

    This is so stupid.

    Seriously, this Coronvavirus will not be gone for a long time. I have heard it could take a year to develop a decent vaccine. Shutting everything down will stop nothing and we're just going to have to learn to live with it. This is just fear mongering stupidity.

    I think it would take cooperation and negotiation with the NBA and NBAPA but I think it could get done. It would throw some things off but I think the season and playoffs can be salvaged and it would be in the best interests of the league and players, not to mention the countless others who depend on the NBA for their livelihood.
