Magic still trying to make himself look good after he quit on the Lakers.

I don’t see him the same anymore after that. Every time I see a thumbnail of him not smiling, I look back at how pathetic he looked on that interview with camera’s flashing in his face with tears 😭 in his eyes.

Let 4 teams from the east go through only, let the battle for 8th in the West take place

@MallyMalMKE what east teams not the bucks heat celtics and sixers you think got a chance at making the finals. I would rather see the 12 teams from the west and 4 from the east.

NBA should pack it in for the season. What if Kawhi LeBron or Freak test positive 2 weeks before the playoffs. It’s to many ifs

I love Magic. I don’t know why they can’t just split games with this season and next season. Like just play 60-65 games next season due to the circumstances

Yeah, let’s go straight into the playoffs so that all the great players will be injured next season. It would be interesting to see what Ronnie 2K does with a glorified G-League

Season is OVER stop with this nonsense! Now we need to focus all our efforts on battling this common enemy to us all. It’ll take well over a year before life goes back to normal so next season is pretty much cancelled in my mind aswell

Aside from this disaster, I don’t think it should resume, because there is no way to do it without prejudice or bias to all the other teams in the league. Right now, they are looking out for interests of their own and the top 4 teams in mind. They are just not going to admit it publicly

NBA has a tough choice, lose millions or lose even more when a top 5 player gets the virus

It’s also about the survival of ESPN, people will cancel their subscription with no live sports.
And since highlights from the games are available on Youtube for free, those lost subscribers will never return.

You can definitely see what’s important to these idiots and that is money. Well this virus has away to humble everyone no matter how much money you got

A season which has started and went well more than half of it should never be cancelled. The solution is simple, restart the season at where it was left when it’s possible and shorten the next season or cancel it if necessary.

This is not the normal lay off for NBA players. And this unprecedented scenario and situation due to the coronavirus players are going to be tested when they come back.

SAS: Magic do u think they should just start the playoffs right away or do they need some games under their belt first?

Cancel the season, let the players heal and prepare for the next season. In times like these, being greedy will just worsen the situation.

There will be a second wave of infections and players will be put in quarantine, you better have that in some regular season games before the playoffs.
Imagine traveling to New York playing the Knicks or Nets, infection is almost guaranteed.
