Jazz-Thunder seems to have just been canned just before tip-off.

Good to see that Central's used early initiative as the last few years they've been playing in front of only a couple of fans each game.

The only people at risk is the elderly and people with existing medical conditions. It's no different to any othe cold or flu

So who's going to the Perth game ?

And this

Tom Hanks and his wife Rita Wilson have tested positive for coronavirus while in Australia, the actor announced in an Instagram post.

"Hello, folks. Rita and I are down here in Australia," he wrote.

“We felt a bit tired, like we had colds, and some body aches. Rita had some chills that came and went. Slight fevers too. To play things right, as is needed in the world right now, we were tested for the coronavirus, and were found to be positive.”



They spent last week in Sydney

(Fully expecting BasketballSA to overreact and cancel this weeks games....)

If you want to keep Coronavirus numbers down in sa, good idea

Mate that's a third of the population..... China doesn't shut down in flu season, but this has brought it to a complete halt, so nah not buying that "it’s just like a flu" crap o e bit

WHO have labelled it a Pandemic..... very rare for that to happen, so you go right ahead and believe that, obviously you don’t have parents over 60, or grand parents or you g babies in your family or friends circle then!?

My dads got a heart condition, my Nan’s got cancer, I have a three week old nephew, that’s just my immediate family , every single one of them fits into the "at risk" category.

Bad luck then man

What is it good luck then?
Which is it? I think the virus was also caused by global warming and climate change and I'm afraid that if I mention anything other than caucasion countries I will be called a racist

Everyone chill out for minute, we need to keep control of our emotions and work together on this , we all know what the government was like during the bush fires .....on holidays.
We need to look after each other because the government doesn't give a shit about our lives only the budget.

#workasone

Dude posting your dribble here continually isn't going to get any government least of all sporting associations close due to the virus so give it a rest champ

^Are you going to the game?

I'm going to the game, then going to the Grand Prix. But that’s none of your concern really

Pretty soon we wont be allowed to drive in the rain because it increases the risk for crashing.

The virus has managed to push greta thunberg and climate alarmists off the front page so that can only be a good thing

Those who survive the virus will live to see a Great Recession and depression unlike anything seen in generations, followed by a possible world war It can take up to 27 days before you start feeling Most people within 5 to 10 But they've observed cases that were asymptomatic for 27 and yeah you are at risk of a high viral load dosage if you are within 4 metres of an infected The trick to this is also not getting a high dose of the virus if you are You could breathe in 1 or 2 spores,

which means it’ll take time for it to multiply inside you

Giving your body time to build an immune response

But if you breathe in several billion spores you’re a lot more The "it’s just a Theres only about 8000 ICU Units in We’re just as fucked as everyone Meanwhile, yesterday our gov was still saying shopping centres and restaurants are safe , No need to wear Masks Insanity, its because there is a global supply shortage and producing countries have banned exports to build their own national supplies

Angus h lives under a rock... open your eyes mate. You have no idea probably a liberal, China keeps reporting less and less cases,

(thats because last month president xi said if local governments don't get people back to work and numbers aren’t under control within a week, state governments would all be fired

So the state governments have an extreme incentive to make it look like This is how we know china isn’t actually getting better though,

You can go to Nasa’s real time pollution satellite maps, and legit ( Which means people aren’t actually back out on the roads driving around or at factories working )

Crystal dropping truth bombs here man

I think people should be aware of what may be to come

I wont be at all surprised by what is to come,

"I don't care because its out of my control" seems to be the wrong answer to this

there is actual plenty you can do to help stop the spread of this and bring it under control

Starting with strict hygiene and sanitation measures, limiting your exposure to public places, and public gatherings, wearing PPE to limit or lessen your exposure to high dose viral load within certain situations, like going shopping.

these precautions are not just for you, but the overall welfare of your family and friends, and their families and friends

If everyone would care about it more we could limit spread and contain this.

taking these precautions and preparing your home and family with a month or two worth of food supplies is not just a sensible thing to do, it is a responsible thing to do.

Especially if you have children.

#745 sounds like Donald Trump. Only he can fix this, right?

Nothing to do with Donald trump u degenerate. Wtf are you on about. Just stating the facts. Do some research before you mud sling. YouTube doctor John Campbell and enlighten yourself before you say stupid comments. Probably one of those "it's just the flu" people

And just to clarify what can fix this... nothing. There is no cure. No Donald trump can't fix this you idiot! But social distancing can slow down the rate of infection. But yeh just continue with the mud slinging comments huh? I’ll wait for my told ya so moment when icu wards are at capacity. But yeh enjoy your basketball game. People like you they making things worse. Open your eyes you degenerate imbecile

Belgium season postponed till end of month.

@ train, your are as anonymous as I am. Check euro baskets you twit.

MIES (Switzerland) - Considering the current situation with the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak and in order to protect the health and safety of players, coaches, officials and fans, FIBA today has announced that all FIBA competitions are suspended as of tomorrow, Friday, 13 March 2020. FIBA will continue to monitor the situation on a daily basis and will evaluate the options for the continuation or not of the respective competitions when and if the situation allow

Make of this what you think.

https://www.eurobasket.com/Belgium/news/623367/General-cancellation-due-to-Coronavirus-COVID-19

For you @ train if you can read.

I've heard the virus makes people irrationally angry and talk nonsense. I reckon at least one person here has got it.

Lol at the people saying these are apocalyptic comments. You don't think the whole of Italy being quarantined, 114 countries and counting with infected persons. China welding people into there own homes. Travel bans, people dropping dead on the street etc is not apocalyptic? Sports leagues around the world postponing or cancelling? Lol at Trevor Gleeson saying no player felt sick after being on the same plane Adam infected person. Does he not no it takes minimum 5 days to feel any symptons. Of all the good the nbl has done it will be an utter disgrace if people are aloud to turn up tomorrow to the game. #econonicsoverhealth!

People dropping dead on the streets???? Hahahaha wtf.

#774 are you a Kings supporter?

Hypothetically, if the NBL season got cancelled right now would they:

-Give the trophy to the kings for finishing top?

-Give it to Perth for being up 1-0, especially since it was an away win?

-Declare that NBL20 has no champion?

(I'm going to the game, then going to the Grand Prix. But that's none of your concern really)

Well go and kiss your family goodbye before you go to the game it might be the last time you will get to see them and The f1 race won’t happen.
Have fun at the game.

I second that !!!

Joe Ingles' Utah Jazz have been rocked again with a second player, All-Star guard Donovan Mitchell, testing positive for the coronavirus.

It follows the revelation on Thursday that All-Star centre Rudy Gobert had tested positive and there are fears for other Australian NBA players Dante Exum, Thon Maker and Matthew Dellavedova.

The Australian government and opposition are literally spreading Coronavirus because of the budget and where just letting them do it to us. Wake up sheep.

Everything associated with the rule of common sense is being cancelled or restricted,but one thing for sure VJBL games will never be cancelled

World gone mad by continuing media coverage. I didn't think people were that robotic and dumb to just believe and follow

If the media started telling people to jump off tall buildings I think many would do it through having no brain of their own

You get the government you deserve. S Como is going to the football and he'll pray.
