Plot Thickens.
Lot's of moving parts.

Yes Sir.
You nailed it.

Now, I see why they're waiting until the end of July.
The ducks are leaving the row.

Get it Straight NBPA!!!

I think that it will be 15 NBA Players. And then the Two-Ways, still under their 45 days of NBA play.
I think that Teams won't have to sign them to an NBA Contract, unless they go over the 45 days.

I believe that players #16 & #17, have to be Two-Way Contracts.
I think that they would have to do a major change to the CBA to allow 17 "NBA" players.

Carlemo Anthony, says he on the fence.

Note to TMZ: Melo is no longer one of the league's biggest names.

I forgot he was still playing. On a larger note. If any of these players want to be pussies and complain about not playing, screw them. Unless the few that have pregnant wives/significant others or recently new children. That I understand. However, looking at how MLB players are treating this is just embarrassing to the overall general public. I mean, come on?

Scrimmages would be interesting.
Sure does seem to be a whole lot of time, just to gear back up.

I think that they're taking a month too long, in this whole re-start process.

I actually support the guys who are wanting to ask the questions about all of this, but it is pretty funny that Kyrie is a ringleader, after that Game of Zones episode.

Yep. Basketball aint coming back for a long time.

If the season gets cancelled, local TV stations will definitely try to opt out of there deals and the owners will 100% cancel the current CBA. If it gets cancelled, guessing the negotiations get real heated [why wouldnt the owners push for a bigger BRI slice when revenue is this far down] and we dont see the NBA for quite some time.

I may be in the minority but I don't think they should be playing either. Ultimately someone's going to catch Corona and it won't look good for the NBA.

I suspected a lot of this might be politically motivated, but didn't want to initially suggest it.

I believe though a lot of this is politically motivated.

Makes sense though Kyrie is a leader in this too since he was always vocal about being treated as human beings and not just entertainers.

Also to add that blacks have been the hardest hit group with corona since this started. And they are also the hardest hit with unemployment.

I would not be surprised if there is a group of players who are just fed up with what is happening in America right now and don't even care about playing basketball.
