Posted on 03/11/2020 6:45:46 PM PDT by TigerClaws

The NBA has suspended its season.

"The NBA is suspending game play following the conclusion of tonight's schedule of games until further notice," the NBA said via a press release.

In the same release, the report said that Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert tested positive for COVID-19.

"The test result was reported shorty prior to the tip-off of tonight's (Wednesday) game between the Jazz and Oklahoma City Thunder at Chesapeake Energy Center," the release said. "At that time, tonight's game was canceled. The affected player was not in the arena."

Especially after OKC Thunder player Rudy Gobert licked all the microphones the other day mocking the coronavirus - who is now ill with coronavirus. Irony is dead.

While speaking to reporters from the media center on Monday (not the locker room), Gobert finished up his press conference by touching all the microphones, recorders and phones left on the table. He was making a point about the global fear stemming from the coronavirus pandemic.

You know, I can’t say I’m unhappy. Basketball, Pros and college has for some reason become very boring to me over the last 30-40 years or so

Our population would be much smaller.

They are gambling very big that this hurts Trump.

Joe Biden will not know whether he is hungry or not in 6 months.

This crap is what is tanking the market. Adults no longer own/manage businesses; franchises et al. People at the top in all sectors are being managed by thumb-sucking, Trump/America hating morons.

No, it isn't. We want to keep the healthcare system from becoming overwhelmed. If we slow the spread, through social distancing, it greatly helps in that cause.

FR's ostrich crowd is very disheartening. I have family who are at-risk, and frankly, I may be too. I swear many here, because they're retired, just panic at the idea of their 401K dropping value, more than they care about stopping a panic, or even the _future_ value of their 401K.

I expect MLB to delay the start of the season. The Mariners had already moved their home games.

Agreed. Even my mlb team they plan to suspend the opener. I have a bigger fear of getting AIDS from faggots at a gay parade than getting corona virus at a stadium.
