###They said it

"I think tonight's a good test. We're playing a good team. We're in a bit of a slide. We had a good stretch. We've had success. Now, how are we going to respond to some adversity? And there's no better way than to do it against a really good team. We had the day off yesterday and a very productive meeting this morning. … It's a matter of going back to playing the right way." -- Devils coach Alain Nasreddine

"I think they've played some better hockey since their coaching change. The (Taylor) Hall trade has also made them a littl

Nice.

Jay-Z’s Run This Town kicks our show off tonight, blaring through our introduction as our main stars are showcased doing their most impressive feats of athleticism. We officially open the show with a shot of our fiery crowd, all 20,000 packed into the Capital One Arena as they prepare for the greatest show on Friday nights to kick off. The camera cuts to the announce team, with Mauro Ranallo and Byron Saxton standing by as they prepare to go over the card for the night.

Building to our 8-man gauntlet match for the Intercontinental Championship at Survival of the Fittest, we’ve got a 6-man tag team match, pitting Austin, Theory, and ZSJ against Gable, TJP, and Ishii, with Shelton Benjamin set for guest commentary. We’ve also got a huge grudge match between two of the best teams in our division, as the Brit-Am Brawlers look to settle the score against the Guerrillas of Destiny. Then we’ve got what’s sure to be a great match as LIJ’s SANADA looks for revenge against Santos Escobar after what he did to Tetsuya Naito after the #1 contender’s Fatal 4-Way. Also, we’ve got some tag team action between two of the women set to do battle for the PRIDE Women’s Championship, as Sasha Banks teams with Bayley against Kairi Sane and a mystery opponent. Meanwhile, in our main event, we have a contract signing for Survival of the Fittest’s main event, when Daniel Bryan and Jay White throw down over the prestigious PRIDE Championship. Starting us off though, we have a match between KENOH and Roman Reigns, with this match being made after Reigns accused KENOH of poisoning him and taking him out of the #1 contender’s match.

KENOH vs. Roman Reigns

Reigns is out first tonight, popping the hot crowd as his entrance music hits. After he cocks his fist and slams it into the ground, he slowly makes his way down the ramp as we cut to picture in picture of a promo from Reigns earlier in the night. Here, Reigns speaks on the whole situation regarding his poisoning earlier, saying that he isn’t sure if KENOH did it or not, but right now, all he wants to do is unleash the fury that’s been building up inside him towards whoever did this. The match starts, with Reigns charging at KENOH, BUT CATCHING AN UNEXPECTED MULE KICK THAT FLOORS HIM! KENOH starts this match by reassuring Reigns that he isn’t one to be messed with, kicking him around for the first few minutes before Reigns reverses a lariat into a Pop-Up Samoan Drop, slowly

Seems pretty relevant regarding the news Toronto will look to play in Tampa next year. From Keith Smith:

> One idea that has been floated if the Toronto Raptors play in Tampa, Florida for the 2020-21 season is to have the Washington Wizards temporarily join the Atlantic Division with BOS, BKN, NYK & PHI. Toronto (Tampa) would then join ATL, CHA, MIA & ORL in the Southeast Division. (1/2)

> The NBA wants to avoid major shuffling, but to be able to do regional scheduling when/where it makes sense. This is a minor, temporary change that could allow for that with relative ease. (2/2)

> https://twitter.com/KeithSmithNBA/status/1327004298564300805

This is important considering the effects COVID will have on the schedule. If teams end up having more divisional games than normal, this would actually help balance out the divisions a little better so that the Southeast isn’t so putrid.

On March 11th, 2020 (3/11/2020) the NBA officially suspended the 2019-20 NBA season due to the outbreak of COVID-19 in the United States. I got to thinking, what if players of the past were trying to tell us something with their play...something that the government would not want them to outright say to the public....

In terms of a stat line, it would break down to 3 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist, 2 steals, 0 blocks, 2 turnovers and 0 personal fouls, or 3/1/1/2/0/2/0. Upon further review, I discovered that only two players have ever achieved this stat line in a single NBA game: Donnell Taylor is 2006 against the Warriors and Marcus Thornton in 2016 against the Heat. Coincidentally, they both played in the capital of the United States of America for the Washington Wizards...

Were they trying to tell us of the coming doom of the future? I have already documented how Donyell Marshall dedicated a game to the 9/11 World Trade Center attacks. Call me a conspiracy nut, but...maybe they knew more than they are leading on in the capital....
