There's been talk about multiple different bubbles, with teams entering and leaving in on a rotation basis. So one team may have three weeks in a bubble in Vegas, then three weeks in a bubble in Orlando, then three weeks off. And so on throughout the season. None of this is official, just scuttlebutt from people who talk to people at the legaue offices.

There are some teams that would have a hard time operating under those conditions for a year. And then what do you do if like, the Hornets shut down for a year? Do you freeze the contracts? Are the players temporarily sent to other teams? What happens if it's the Rockets? Or the Thunder? I don't know, I don't have a better idea.

pba lifer/unlicensed hvac repair Spacebump posted:What are they going to do next season? I feel like there is no way they could do a normal length season in the bubble. it’s not feasible to do a whole bubble season for a few reasons but i think the biggest one is maintaining quarantine for more players for a longer time, presumably with most of them having not gotten sick or being far removed from having the virus if we assume a shortened season tipping off in like january or whatever? idk i mean i guess it could happen but it feels like there would be a lot of fuckups along the way

I think the most promising thing so far is seeing shai looking to pass more. Once he gets the keys he's going to explode.

At the very least this bubble shows the nba and nbapa can negotiate a reasonable deal for all parties.

learned doctors need your thoughtsquote:Dr. Brian Sutterer, of sports injury YouTube fame, has been watching intently and has his concerns. “He’s in a race against his own body,” Dr. Sutterer said over the phone. “If you go watch his Duke highlights compared to now, the difference is profound. In my opinion, his athleticism and conditioning have regressed substantially. He’s less explosive, less conditioned, slower on defense, has already had a portion of his meniscus removed from his knee after an injury, and he’s still under close monitoring from the medical staff.” sports injury YouTube fame

"Zion will need to be careful how he manages his body, and has concerns of being a long term injury risk" isn't exactly a hot take. I wouldn't go nuts analyzing a handful of bubble games though.

He's arguing that Zion's body is falling apart faster than they can load manage it, even with the restricted minutes and reprogramming. It's the hottest take I've heard on Zion's health outside of this thread when we are poo poo posting WhyteRyce fucked around with this message at 18:00 on Aug 6, 2020 |

up until now, jim boylen's run as an NBA head coach has been very funny. downright hilarious. i am glad to see it continue, even if it comes at the expense of the development and joy of many players i like. RIP the bulls

WhyteRyce posted:learned doctors need your thoughts His statement doesn't follow from its priors. They're working on his jumping and movement so that he's not blowing himself apart. He should be somewhat less explosive than he was when he was just flinging himself into the sky at 300 lbs. I would give it some time
