I really think rushing back to play TV studio basketball borders on reality TV. I agree w the poster. See ya next season just like a labour stoppage. Do not risk players health. Somebody could get permanently damaged.
Far for me to support billionaire owners but the sentiment of them putting "poor" players at risk because of greed is wrong. The NBA players’ union approved a restart, so clearly they want money as much as the owners. Like Oladipo, any players can opt out from playing if they so choose. Players are co-conspirators, not pawns.
If keeping players in a safe bubble isn't safe enough for you, then eliminating this risk will require a vaccine which most medical experts say won't come until early-mid 2021. This should write off most/all of next season as well. Don't think it's just this season!
Even then while the vaccine will certainly help minimize risk for the vulnerable it wont to protect anyone from new strains, so there is always risk
Saying that, based on all the data out there is not real any risk for healthy adults with or without a vaccine. That's why the union support a return.
There are report for healthy adults having impact to their sense of smell, tingling, lung capacity and on top of that, reports of people potentially contracting Covid again a second time with even worse impacts the second time.
There is a risk, and saying "there isn't really any risk" is a propaganda type comment.
