Who will be the 8th Seed for the Western Conference?

The western conference is a very hard conference to play in if you are on a NBA team. There are a lot of star powered teams in the West. But not as much in the eastern conference. So it is very hard to get into the playoffs in the west.

That being said, who will be the eight seed in the west? It is a three way race between Damian Lillard and the Portland Trail Blazers, Zion and the Pelicans, and Ja Morant and the Grizzles. Sadly my boy Derrick Rose is not in the race of the East. So who will win the race?

There is about a month break off so the Blazers might be healthy with there big mini 3 of Dame, CJ, and Nurk, Now they added Whiteside so one of the 2 centers might be coming off the bench so they will get more big man scoring when the back court is out resting. Or they will do what the Pelicans used to do with Bogey and AD. That would get a lot of rebounds and they will have Carmelo Anthony as his normal potion, a small forward. So the Portland team could be in the race.

Next is Zion and the Pelicans. Zion is a young great player. He will not be stressed out in the playoffs, he will just play normally. Then he has JJ Redick on his team. Someone who is a veteran and he will not be nervous to be in the playoffs because he has been in the playoffs every year of his career. So with the just straight up talent as well as the leadership from JJ I think they have a very good shot at making the 8th seed.

Lastly is Ja Morant and the very talented Grizzles. They do not have a lot of veteran leadership on there very young team. The oldest player on the team Anthony Tolliver. They only have 2 player that are 30 years and older one of them being Anthony Tolliver. The other one just turned 30. So I do not think that they have much of a chance with the age. The talent is there but I don't know if they will have enough mentor ship to push through to get the 8th seed.

So in conclusion, I think that Zion and the Pelicans have the best chance to make it into the playoffs. They have talent and a lot of veteran mentor ship, mostly from JJ Redick.

What has COVID-19 Done to the NCAA?

Hey basketball fans! We all know that Covid-19 has had a lot of affect on every sport. Already, four major pro sports leagues in North America — MLB, NBA, NHL and MLS — have temporarily closed their clubhouses and locker rooms to the media. And a member of Tokyo's 2020 Olympic organizing committee's executive board raised the possibility of the Games being postponed for a year or two if they can't go on as scheduled. But what has it done for just the NCAA? That is the question that we are going to be answering.

The Yale men's and Princeton women's teams will represent the Ivy League in the upcoming NCAA Tournaments after officials scrapped the postseason conference tourneys to "limit large gatherings on campuses in light of the coronavirus situation." Two conferences have decided their men's and women's basketball tournaments will be played behind closed doors. Both the Big West and Mid-American Conferences on Tuesday became the first to announce they're restricting public access to the tournament sites

In response to players who expressed frustration with the decision, Ivy League executive director Robin Harris said public health concerns were paramount: “We understand and share the disappointment with student-athletes, coaches and fans who will not be able to participate in these tournaments.”

This is the most drastic reaction from a virus ever in all of sports history. They are trying to keep the players safe, and I get that, but come on. They cancelled all of the NBA, NCAA, MLB, NHL, and the MLS. That is a little bit drastic for a virus that we don't know that much about.

So what do you think about it this!! Put it in the comments! I read all of them so I might respond!! If you got this far put........ #StaySafe so I know you got that far! Thank you for reading and I will talk to you soon!

NBA Latest News | What has Covid 19 done to the NBA season and what do I think about it?

Hey basketball fans! Sad news today, the NBA has cancelled the rest of the games for this season. It is unknown if it is going to be postponed or just cancelled. These are my thought on what this will be like in this time for the NBA.

This is bad. I love the Portland Trail Blazers. Without the NBA I would not be able to learn and see my favorite player. My favorite player of all time is Derrick Rose. I just like him story. He went through a lot, he was the 2011 NBA MVP and then he tore his ACL (interior crucial ligament), then he came back and has yet to make a All-Star game, or get any awards. But what I think about D Rose is for another Blog, and no I am not a Bandwagon for liking Derrick Rose and not someone on my states teams.

The NBA will suffer. That just it the NBA will not get any money. A lot of workers will lose money, Concession stand workers especially. They need that money.

Breaking News: March madness will not be happening at all. This is bad. Like really bad for everyone in every league. Soccer, Basketball, Football, Soccer. Every sport.

I think that Rudy is kinda the reason for the NBA cancelling/postponing the NBA season, and I am not pointing fingers but he could have stopped it. For everyone who does not know, he was pretty much, just touching every microphone and acting like he had it by coughing in him arm, AND HE GOT COVID 19! That just makes me very mad! He could have not done that. He might have still gotten it, but it would have probably been for a different reason. I don't know what he was thinking. He was making fun of everyone who was scared. I am not scared of it but I am still very mad at him. I might be a bandwagon because of what happened this season with the Blazers and the refs. But I think everyone in the league and out is mad at him too. Sure he said sorry. But the NBA probably made him, that just makes it seem like he said it just to get the NBA off his back.

So that is my thoughts about the NBA problems. What do you think about it! Put it in the comments! I read all of them so I might respond!! If you got this far put......... #StopRudy so I know you got that far!
