NBA suspends play indefinitely
 
Sign of the times ...wow if a NBA player can test positive for carnivores ...we’re all at risk!! Rudy Gobert tested POSITIVE

Not canceled, but suspended. No decision as to the final outcome https://mobile.twitter.com/brohrbach...933760/photo/1

I must have missed the memo stating NBA players are immune to infectious diseases. Somebody should tell Magic Johnson that someone owes him a refund on the last 20+ years.

Suspended correction
 
Yeah but I don’t see it playing out with the virus and No vaccine and the pandemic worldwide cases! If it’s that easy for a player to contract it the ramifications to immediate family members,teammates,workers, airline travel,parking lot attendants is a raging range of outbreaks waiting to happen. To much has to happen to ensure safety and health and it’s NOT a week,month timeline for the NBA so yeah it’s over

How long is the incubation period before you test positive? All the players, coaches, officials, and arena personnel Gobert has come in contact with over the last 2 weeks may have been exposed.

One of my friends worked a Utah game within the last week.

These are all good questions and now the video showing Gobert touching reporters microphones and the tree branches growing outward from this act 🤷🏻*♂️ Dang and the 7 city 3-Man crew REFEREES exposed and “34” different players shared the floor with Gobert since Friday .. But with colleges going to online classes here in state after spring break due to Coronavirus it wouldn’t surprise me if NBA goes FAN-LESS attendance... regardless prayer goes out to all

On the bright side, all those climate change alarmists screaming that the world is going to end in 10 years should sleep easier tonight since corona virus is going to wipe out humanity in the next couple of months!

Scuttlebutt is that NBA will resume games with no live attendance within a week.

I was within minutes of buying tickets to OKC/Memphis on Tuesday but decided against traveling there and staying for two nights. The wife is pregnant and the risk is too much. Good decision I guess.
