NBA Boss Adam Silver Eyes January Start To Next Season

2020-10-18T07:59:17Z

CharlotteDonoghu:

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver thinks the league is likely headed for a January start in 2021, but that pandemic-delayed season could drag into the following summer and prevent league players from competing in the Tokyo Olympics. Similarly, NHL commissioner Gary Bettman said on Saturday that he envisioned his league starting the next campaign in late December or January, but that will not have any impact on the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing. Silver, a g[# 'I continue to believe that we're going to be better off getting into January,' Silver said in a discussion with Bob Costas during part of the 'Citizen by CNN' event. 'The goal for us next season is to play a standard season ... an 82-game season and playoffs. And further, the goal would be to play games in home arenas in front of fans, but there's still a lot that we need to learn.' The NBA hasn't played in arenas filled with fans since March 11, when the league suspended its season because of the coronavirus pandemic. A very small number of fans - maybe 30 or 40 per game - have been allowed to watch inside the NBA's restart bubble at Walt Disney World in recent weeks, all of them family members or close friends of players. Those guests all are tested daily for coronavirus, like everyone else in the bubble.

If next season is typical - and there's no way of knowing that it will be, or even could be - a January start could mean a June or July regular-season finish, with playoffs concluding in August or September. That could greatly affect Olympic plans. The rescheduled Tokyo Olympics are set to begin July 23 and run through August 8 - if those games are held. Final qualifying rounds for the 24 teams still bidding for the four remaining spots in the 12-team men's basketball field would begin in June. LeBron James celebrates with Anthony Davis after the latter hit a game-winning three-pointer in Game 2 of the Lakers' Western Conference Finals series against the Nuggets The United States Men's Basketball team celebrates with their gold medals following the Men's Gold medal game on Day 16 of the Rio 2016 Olympic Games at Carioca Arena 1 in 2016 'There are a lot of great US players, and we may be up against a scenario where the top 15 NBA players aren't competing in the Olympics, but other great American players are competing,' Silver said. 'And, obviously, there are many NBA players who participate in the Olympics for other countries. That's something we're going to have to work through.' Team USA Coach Gregg Popovich (right) and assistant Steve Kerr (left) could be forced to skip the Olympics if their respective NBA teams, the Spurs and Warriors, are still playing deep into the 2021 postseason USA Basketball has been planning for various possible scenarios in recent months but can't make any concrete plans until it sees what the next NBA schedule officially looks like. The U.S. roster for the Tokyo Olympics will be 12 players; there were another 34 players competing for other countries at the Rio Olympics as well. Several NBA coaches are also planning to coach in the Tokyo Olympics or in qualifying: San Antonio's Gregg Popovich will coach USA Basketball and be assisted by Golden State's Steve Kerr and Atlanta's Lloyd Pierce; Golden State associate head coach Mike Brown is set to coach Nigeria; Toronto assistant Sergio Scariolo will coach Spain and Raptors head coach Nick Nurse will lead Canada in qualifying and then the Olympics should it qualify. 'These are highly unique and unusual circumstances,' Silver said. 'And I think just as it is for the Olympic movement, it is for us as well. And we're just going to have to sort of find a way to meld and mesh those two competing considerations.' The US, Nigeria, Australia, Spain, Argentina, Iran, France and host Japan have qualified for the Olympic men's basketball field already. Among the top international teams still hoping to qualify: Greece (which could have two-time reigning NBA MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo), Serbia (led by Denver's All-NBA center Nikola Jokic), Lithuania, Russia and the Czech Republic.

On Saturday, Bettman raised the [http://www.telegraph.co.uk/search/?queryText=possibility possibility] of a start sometime later in December or even January, though the plan remains for each team to play 82 games and the league hold a full playoffs. A general overview is seen of Jamie Benn of the Dallas Stars and Brayden Point of the Tampa Bay Lightning taking a face-off in the Stars zone during the second period of Game Two of the NHL Stanley Cup Final between the Dallas Stars and the Tampa Bay Lightning at Rogers Place on Monday Much like its plan to resume this season, the league hopes to adapt to the pandemic circumstances in the US, Canada and worldwide and is open to adjusting on the fly as the situation evolves. Acknowledging there are factors like the US-Canada border and local jurisdictions out of his control that could affect travel and attendance, Bettman indicated Saturday he wouldn't be surprised if the season begins later than scheduled but would like to avoid playing deep into next summer. 'If there's an option to consider, believe me, we're considering it,' Bettman said during his annual pre-Stanley Cup Final news conference. 'It's conceivable that we start without fans, that we move to socially distant fans at some point and by some point in time maybe our buildings are open.' There's no way to know yet what a 2020-21 NHL season will look like, and the league is watching what's going on in European hockey and the other North American professional sports leagues and college athletics to see what's possible. 'Our goal is to get back to as great a sense of normalcy as possible under whatever circumstances are presented,' Bettman said. One of the circumstances at play is the closure of the U.S.-Canada border to nonessential travel, which has more of an effect on the NHL than other pro sports leagues because it has seven teams in Canada and 24 in the U.S. until Seattle becomes the 32nd franchise in 2021.

Bettman said the league has 'started informally thinking' about it and conceded there will be a financial hit because attendance makes up at least 50% of revenue. He's not worried about any franchises not making it through this and said Seattle joining the league won't be pushed back. 'While we know it'll be less (money), we know there's a substantial revenue impact, I'm comfortable that our franchises will be strong enough to weather this,' Bettman said.

Aussies Make Emotional Plea To Return Home

2020-10-16T17:29:59Z

CharlotteDonoghu:

Exasperated Australians in heart-wrenching binds have vented emotional pleas for the government to urgently lift the cap on overseas arrivals. A Senate committee scrutinising the federal government's coronavirus response has heard from citizens suffering intense hardship due to travel bans. Canberra woman Gina De Ruyter, 24, moved to the Philippines late last year to set up an animal shelter. When the pandemic hit, she began working out how to ensure the 40 animals were cared for when she returned to Australia. She then broke her leg in two places, but the initial surgery hasn't healed. "It's been badly infected for two months, just weeping pus all the time," Ms De Ruyter told the committee on Thursday. "My leg has swollen up again with pus, but the doctor can't do anything anymore because all the hospitals are filling up with coronavirus patients." The young Canberran is booked on a Friday flight but like so many Australians, fears ticket cancellations that have prevented homecomings. Peta Stoyanovich's husband Luke and mother-in-law Stanika are stranded in Serbia. Mr Stoyanovich received an exemption to travel after his father died in July, with the intention of bringing his 79-year-old mother home. But three attempts to return to Melbourne have been thwarted and their accommodation finishes on September 30. They've been split up on separate flights but there's no confidence the mother and son will board the plane. Peta Stoyanovich is worried her grieving mother-in-law will face airports, transit, hotel quarantine and taxis alone. "It's complete madness. It's absolute madness," she said through tears. Mrs Stoyanovich said she was shattered by the loss of confidence in Australia looking after its citizens abroad who had been left at the mercy of airlines. "Do your bloody job, for God's sake." She said the support available to [http://www.squidoo.com/search/results?q=Australians%20overseas Australians overseas] was disgusting, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html kynghidongduong.vn] while the planned weekly rise in the cap on overseas arrivals to 6000 was insulting. "The cap has abandoned my family and it's abandoned our citizens," Mrs Stoyanovich said. "They are not stranded - they are abandoned by the government." On her emotional state, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html tour phượng hoàng cổ trấn] she said: "An overwhelming sense of hopelessness just engulfs me." Deanne Vowels, husband Paul and their five children travelled to the UK for a family reunion two days before the travel ban was imposed in March. The Newcastle family have run out of money and are worried about defaulting on their mortgage after having five flights home cancelled. "It just feels like a long-term boyfriend cheating on me. I've given my life to Australia and in my time of need they have dumped me," Mrs Vowels said. The family was told to upgrade to business class, which would have cost $120,000, and government officials suggested setting up a crowdfunding website. There are 26,700 Australians overseas who want to return home, [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html tour viên gia giới] with 4000 considered vulnerable. The Department of [http://answers.yahoo.com/search/search_result?p=Foreign%20Affairs&submit-go=Search+Y!+Answers Foreign Affairs] and Trade defended its actions in trying to bring Australians home, arguing the caps were due to state hotel quarantine capacity. "Over the last six months our people have done everything possible to find pathways home for Australians. Helping Australians get home is our foremost priority," DFAT secretary Frances Adamson said. Meanwhile, Victoria recorded just 12 new coronavirus cases and two deaths on Thursday, taking the national toll to 861. Queensland will allow gatherings of up to 30 people after two weeks without community transmission. NSW will further ease restrictions on weddings, community sport and school activities after three days without community spread.

Trump Calls Swedish Lawmaker In Thanks For Nobel Nomination

STOCKHOLM (AP) - A Swedish lawmaker who nominated U.S. President Donald Trump for the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts in the Middle East says he got a phone call of thanks from the American leader. Magnus Jacobsson, a member of Sweden´s Parliament for the [https://www.change.org/search?q=Christian Christian] Democrats, wrote Tuesday on Twitter that he was "on my way to the stable with my daughter" when he got the call. "We had a good conversation about peace in the Middle East and the Balkans. I wish the President good luck with the peace processes," Jacobsson wrote. Israel and the United Arab Emirates agreed last month to a deal normalizing relations that was signed at the White House on Sept. 15. Earlier this month, Jacobsson also nominated the governments of the United States, Kosovo and Serbia for [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html tour phượng hoàng cổ trấn] the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize for their efforts to secure a peace agreement between the two former Balkan war foes. Serbian President Aleksander Vucic and Kosovo Prime Minister Avdullah Hoti signed an economic normalization deal at the White House last week.
