I love Thibs but he just hated playing young guys with the Bulls. He did help develop Jimmy Butler nicely. Curious how he does here. Had talent in Minnesota and never got them going or KAT to play D

Pels won by 21.

He's officially a gametime decision for tomorrow.

I'm choosing to believe that's because the Pels know their injury luck, and they're just assuming he's 50/50 to test positive before tip-off.

Funny, I thought the same. I was very confused that the season started on a Thursday when for the past month I planned for Friday.

But it's definitely today.

Jazz vs Pels at 5:30 cst
Lakers vs Clippers at 8pm cst

Are the cameramen, referees and everyone else locked down in the bubble as well? If so, why wear masks if everyone is locked down and everyone tests negative.

Serious question....and I don't want to ruin the thread with a COVID debate.

Refs? Yes

Camera men? Not sure but I'd guess yes.

And you mask up because they can still get food and packages and stuff from the outside. So it's not like they have no chance to catch it, and in the event that one does, masking could help minimize the spread. I get that if a player gets it, he potentially can affect a bunch of others by playing in a game but masking up is just another precaution to help prevent spread if someone does get it, at least that's my best guess.

Man, I'm way more pumped right now than I should be.

I guess that's what happens with 4.5 months of not a meaningful sport for me, obviously the longest I've ever gone.

Plus maybe they want to wear masks. I hated them at the start but I’m used to it now.
