The sports world is in a sad state right now as everything has come to a halt due to the coronavirus.
There are zero games being played and no highlights to watch from anything across the board. With people being stuck in their homes without anything to do, it has led to their creative to come out and think about how we can possibly get through this and gets sports happening again.
Jay Williams is one of those people.
The former Duke star, NBA player and current ESPN basketball analyst recently floated the idea of the NBA playoffs being played on….cruise ships.
“Maybe if you can take two of those massive cruise ships, and there’s testing before everybody goes on the ship,” Williams began. “You allow the player and their immediate family being that wife or their kids are allowed to go with them.
“And you have an Eastern Conference cruise ship, and you have a Western Conference cruise ship.”

He continued….
“You never really go to shore. You stay out on the cruise ships. You build two courts on those cruise ships. … Team members and their family members could be isolated to a degree for that span — if that’s 40 days, whatever it may be.
“You go right into the playoffs. Maybe give a week for each team to prepare. But you go right into that for the Eastern Conference and the Western Conference. And then you have the championship game on a cruise ship.”
Williams clearly has access to the highest grade of the sticky-icky.
