His ignorant actions did not shut the NBA down. He did not shut MLB, NCAA, NHL, etc...etc... down. He is not patient zero.
He's just a guy, like many around, that thought the virus wasn't as big of a deal as it has turned out to be.

Yeah. I know. And he's being treated like patient zero because of those ignorant actions. The season was not shut down because of him.flexbuffchest wrote: ↑Sun Mar 15, 2020 10:15 amNo one is blaming him because he was the first one to test positive. The hate he is getting is that he openly was mocking the seriousness of the situation and purposefully was doing the exact opposite of what he should have. He made a point to go around and touch his teammates excessively and the same to the microphones.bubu dubu. wrote: ↑Sun Mar 15, 2020 3:10 am The Gobert hate is absurd.

I wonder if its better off that the actions for the whole sports scene was set into action on that day...if not for that, I wonder how many more days the sports world would have taken to shut down...not a defense of his actions, but it might have coincidentally been a good thing.

We are getting a good front row reminder about how our society works. Pro athletes, celebs and movie stars are getting tested and A list medical care. The rest of us are being told there are no tests, you probably have the virus, go home and tough it out, and give us another call if it feels like you are going to die.

NY governor andrew Cuomo was just talking about social distancing and said that some young people in NYC were playing basketball. He said that was an example of not following social distancing. “You can’t play basketball and be six feet away from people,” he said.
Andrew Cuomo has never seen Andrew Wiggins play.

Re: Season Is Officially Done - Gobert Has COVID-19
Who gives a rats ass about the rest of the games of the regular season? 80% of it was already played and they already play too many games.
Get ready, suit up and start the playoffs. This is exactly what Stephen A is predicting also.
There are rumors Kevin Durant would be ready to play in the playoffs. I find that to be absolute bull shit to let him play but hey, it is what it is.
Lace em up!
