    That would be about the craziest thing ever. Advantage Utah with Mitchell feeling at home.
    An entire industry that is predicated on people being in the same place and touching things doesn't seem like the first thing that is going to come back.

    SF - Bernard King
    PF - Elvin Hayes
    C - Wes Unseld (width > height)

    Bench - Moses Malone, Walt Bellamy, Jeff Malone, Bradly Beal, Chris Webber, John Wall, Bobby Dandridge
    See post # 573, and it's drastically different than yours. But it's not as much fun if the teams are virtually alike.

    Co-signed.

    And if we're searching for more front court power/production (particularly at PF/C) and including Dallas Chaparrals, how about 3X All-Star John Beasley? https://www.basketball-reference.com...beasljo01.html

    Yes, but it's Vegas. They're not going to stay closed for half a year. I can't imagine the impact on that city if it did. 90% unemployment?

    So without a cure you think people are going to pile into a casino, sit at tables, touch chips, take drinks from cocktail waitresses, exchange cash, go to crowded clubs, sit in crowded theaters, go to a sit down restaurant? Maybe everyone can go to the pool and hope massive amounts of chlorine will take care of it.

    Vegas casinos will be open Memorial Day weekend. And they will be busy.

    I hope you're right. But I don't think you are.

    There's some hope in my prediction as well!

    Now, I'm not going to say they SHOULD be open and busy, but if the Nevada governor allows them to open, they'll open. And if they're open, they'll be busy. They'd be busy today if they were open, which is why they're closed.

    maybe you and I would not....but I honestly think they could get good business with the people that would without hesitation. A lot of people are either irresponsible and/or selfish. If not, these shelter in place orders would not be needed.

    Rudy T. finally makes it into the HOF. It's about time. Also, going into the Hall are Kobe Bryant, Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett. That's a pretty solid class there.

    He would have made it sooner if Kermit Washington hadn't sucker-punched him.

    Re: NBA 2019-2020

    Am I the only one that has little interest in these talked about events by the NBA....an All Star type game....a game of horse, etc., etc.? I appreciate they are trying to give the fans something and make a little money, but I just have no interest in much outside legitimate games.

    Re: NBA 2019-2020

    Caught the 4th Quarter of Game 7 in the 2010 NBA Finals (Lakers over Celtics) on ESPN tonight. There was this moment after the game where Kobe has Gigi on his shoulders and beside him are Stuart Scott and David Stern....with Lakers Assistant Coach Frank Hamblen in the background. It seems like that was just yesterday, and none of them are with us any longer. It kind of hit me hard when I realized it.
