If this virus goes till August or September. They could jump straight to the playoffs and do the 2020-2021 season with less games starting X-Mas. I think it's important to crown a champion even if it's straight to the Conference finals then finals.

Definitely important to crown a champion. But O think they should still have some form of first round/second round/etc

Just go NCAA tourney style starting with the round of 32. Or if enough teams have been eliminated from playoff contention, don't include those and give the top seeds byes. First round is one and done, second round best of 3, third, so on so forth.

@pete clemenza if the season is cancelled... then Reggie Jackson, Marcus Morris and Montrez Harrell essentially become free agents?

If so, that's a major blow bc I figure yall can only afford 1 or (at best) 2 of those 3 guys at their actual market value.

I like him for the wizards. He's hyper athletic.. Fast, can jump, good finisher. Seems to be able to defend multiple positions, a shot block threat. Looks like he has a great motor and is a work horse.

At first glance he reminds me of siakam, Christian wood, Ibaka mold. He will have good utility

After three seasons with the Warriors, Kevin Durant last summer chose to sign with the Brooklyn Nets in free agency.

Over the last nine months or so, we have heard a bunch of theories and/or explanations as to why he decided to leave.

And on Tuesday morning, another story came to light.

This excerpt from Ethan Strauss' new book, "The Victory Machine," details an exchange between Durant and Strauss on Jan. 5, 2019:

I tried to make a few points, saying I didn’t begrudge him for having leverage with his contract, and insisted that I had good reason to write what I wrote. KD wasn’t impressed and accused me of trying to “rile up Steph’s fans.”

He expressed that this was a constant theme in the Bay. All of us local guys just wanted to kiss Steph’s a-- at his expense. This was KD’s consistent lament. He would frequently squabble in direct-message conversations with the Warriors fans of Twitter, frequently accusing them of favoring Steph at his expense.

In one such exchange that foreshadowed things to come, he was asked by the WarriorsWorld account whether two-time MVP Steph Curry or Kyrie Irving was the better player. “I gotta really sit down and analyze it,” Durant demurred.

Why KD accused reporter of trying to 'rile up' Steph fans
