Tweet was deleted or there was problem with the URL: I don’t get why the players association voted for this before the details were even threaded out and while opposition among players was so high. Personally, I think the whole idea is bad and don’t think they should do it. Skipping straight to the playoffs was risky enough, but stretching it to 22 teams and lengthening it to 3 months is crazy- who can stay hauled up in a hotel room for 3 months?! |

But a lot of players are realizing they’re being railroaded into something that at best will be very difficult mentally, and at worse a real danger to their and their families health. Glad they’re starting to speak up. |

Yikes, here's the money side of things- looks like the NBA & owners are strong arming the players into this, makes it even more dubious (especially if the team owners are sat safe and sound in the safety of their own homes):

Kyrie Vice President player rep? So illogical!

I do think Woj is a disgrace with his agenda writing. He extorts information from teams under threat of giving them bad write-ups if they don't give him it, and now he's trying to portray Kyrie as evil for simply raising legit concerns about the nba's dodgy Orlando plan:
Tweet was deleted or there was problem with the URL: I'm no fan of Kyrie, but the players are absolutely right to question this. By sheer coincidence Woj works for ESPN who have a vested financial interest in hoodwinking the players into playing. Now it comes out that the Disney staff won't be in the non-existent bubble, and instead will be free to come and go in a state that's seeing infection rates skyrocket. |
