Jared Dudley about to become a player/coach. Kidd might need to join Luka on a diet to get in shape before he can play.

Jared Dudley is too busy being Luka's nutritionist.

Man, looking at these box scores and seeing who is not playing is eye opening.

Dudley could drop a few lbs his damn self.

Throw up all you want. He can still play at 40 yrs old.

That would be the joke.

[HoosierDaddyKid]

That would be the joke.

Thanks. Brain-fart alert...

[cow]

Thanks. Brain-fart alert...

I think my joke fell flat but I thought it was funny.  Maybe everyone forgot about Jared's dad body.  He didn't even get mentioned in the all girth team.

Whether or not the NBA is putting the NBA on hold, the NBA is being put on hold. So many out for health and safety protocol reasons.

I guess he'll get no more DNP-CD's from Thibs. I like the fact he didn't bitch about being benched. He was a pro about it, and waited on his chance to redeem himself.

Privately, several team executives and team health officials believed not testing everyone was financially motivated, though league officials have disputed this characterization to ESPN. For now, when a team has a positive case, that team is encouraged -- but not required -- to test all players and potentially impacted staff to see how far the virus has spread; the same is recommended when a team faces another team that has detected a positive test.
So far, mandated daily testing has remained off the table.
Other teams privately argue that not all teams have followed the protocols as strictly as others, or that not all teams test as often as others. Another GM said that if all teams were united heading into the Orlando bubble last year, the dynamics have now changed: Every team is out for themselves, trying to save their own seasons, fielding subpar ghost teams.
Amid the surge, a number of team executives started to believe -- and have voiced as much to the league -- that asymptomatic players should be able to play. But, at the highest corners of the NBA and NBPA, that possibility is, for now, a non-starter, league sources said.

NBA is a joke tbh


Straight up clown league. How do you not have 3rd party testing?

If i am one of the teams i would straight up forcing a break together similar to Black lives matter. Straight up not playing anymore. Complete farce right now.

So this reminds me of the year the NFL broke the NFLPA with the scrubs...
Dallas made the playoffs that year because many of their regulars crossed the picket and were playing the replacements.

The difference in this scenario is that who has MOST of their regular guys is simply a random draw.

Remember when the NBA was concerned about teams not playing their best players every night???

You have the NBA Execs, Owners, Players, Agents, Banana Boat Buddies, and Sporting Goods Companies all needing to make big money...
