Bucks players are in locker room attempting to reach the attorney general of Wisconsin, Josh Kaul, sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium. Magic players are leaving the arena soon -- not accepting the Bucks‘ forfeit.


LeBron of course isn't going to be upstaged by Giannis

Adrian Wojnarowski @wojespn 11m

The Lakers have a team meeting soon to discuss the possbility of boycotting Game 5 tonight against Portland, sources tell ESPN.


Is the bubble bursting? Or will something come out of this that lets them move forward after a delay?

All NBA games have been postponed today, the league says.

I think that this is just going to be a one-day delay. The players can't blow up the deal that they made with the league. They won't destroy their livelihoods.

Edit: maybe two days.

Marc Spears just said "I have no idea when we will see NBA basketball again."

I say who the hell cares. The Pels are done anyway if anything it speeds up our timetable for a hire.

Actually glad the Pelicans aren't in this so I'm not emotionally invested.

If they don’t finish out the playoffs it just means one more season wasted for Lebron. You already know he’s gonna try to make sure they finish

Hahahaha..

Don't care, cancel the playoffs. I got what I wanted out of the bubble, made sure Gentry got fired.

I'm mostly just triggered everyone in the media doesn't understand that this is strike not a boycott.

Yeah, I've noticed that from Twitter and Facebook. Present people with the facts and they just block you, or try to change to a different agenda and never once acknowledge their willful ignorance.

If this continues when the NFL starts up again, they might as well shut it down.

I'll go with delayed pending what they decide to do.

If all games pick up on Friday, there was no true boycott, they just took 2 days off.

If they go full boycott, then we'll call it that.

Part of the reason why this doesn't make sense is they're boycotting until what happens?

That's the issue, nothing they think they want to happen will happen any time soon. Anything they feel needs changing is a long term systematic change, not overnight.

So they're boycotting for what and until when?

I say do it, grow some balls Lebron and see what happens.

Soon as they come repo the Benzs and Porsche, values go out the window and they’ll fold like a cheap suit begging to play.
