For the non-eliminated teams, each passing day is going to feel eerily like, "And Then There Were None."
I believe they should be able to choose on whether to go down there and play of not. They won't get paid, but at least they won't feel forced.
If Kyrie "flat earther" Irving is the lightning rod for dissent, that's all the convincing I need that the league and player's union got it right.
I'm confused. This sounds like a reason NOT to play, but they seem to be using it as a reason to play.
Not sure. Seems like whoever said this said that once they get back onto the court in their "natural environment" it will get back to being about basketball. I'm sure had the season been going on during all the protests and marches some players would have taken a knee. I'm sure the league would have had warmup shirts made like the MLK ones......but the games would go on for sure.
With Florida's virus counts skyrocketing, what's the purpose of going there anymore? If you're going to Florida, you might as well continue the regular season at every NBA arena. Makes no sense anymore.
