They have the money and untold facilities to isolate themselves and play. Maybe I'm full of it but couldn't you house the whole league in the MGM Grand in Vegas? You could have multiple basketball courts there. I dunno, maybe security is an issue.

It would be good if they tried something like that. I guess there is a chance that someone involved get's sick and died though, which is a terrible look for the league. The players are about as far from at risk as can be though.

The NBA is "following the lead" of China. I'm not kidding.

Disband this treasonous league all together.

They can test and retest, then isolate in whatever venue in Vegas. From that point on, no one in, no one out, for 2 months. You lose, you leave, obviously.

I hope LTG cedes this point. I mean if the NBA was that great to begin with, it should be able to stop and start after a few weeks with no issues.

Using your premise then why isn't baseball starting up? If the NBA should be starting then shouldn't baseball be starting too?

You can quarantine NBA play, theoretically.

Too much contact and bodily fluids when people play basketball. You can play baseball since there is minimal human contact.

You can probably keep the bench and bullpen guys out of the dugout/bullpens to increase social distancing.
