Back to Stepping on the Beach.

The only place to read your emails and tweets.

It's Tuesday, July 21st.

I'm Jay Skeets and joining us here to kick around the sand.

It's Tasmeilis.

Hello, NBA fans.

Hey, Tassie.

We also got the international man of mystery, taking it to the max. Lee Ellis. Friends. Leelie and last but not least. Making the magic happen, it's JD. Hello. There he is. And here we are, just the four of us again today. Our final day without the bearded one, Trey Kirby. his little family getaway is almost over, so he'll be joining us back on the pod tomorrow. Guys, thank you so much for sending in your questions and comments. Keep them coming. As always, email them in, no dunks at theathletic.com, or tweet them in at No Dunks, Inc. Or use the hashtag, no dunks. Got some good news, great news for you guys.

The good news, the NBA announced on Monday that coronavirus tests of 346 players at the league's

bubble campus in Orlando since July 13th have yielded zero positive results.

That's good news.

That's great news. The basketball returns next Thursday night. That's good news. That's great news.

The basketball returns next Thursday night.

That's the real great news.

And once things tip off, guys,

we're going to be looking at a few weeks of straight NBA hoops playing all day long

because they're going to be starting these games,

especially for the East Coast fans, at like noon, 1 o'clock, stuff like that. So as a result, we're going to switch up our programming schedule here at No Dunks, starting July 30th. We're going late night, boys. Things are going to get zany. Yeah, how late? We're, oh yeah, Lee's already worried. After the final game, Lee, hey, we might get lucky. You might have a blowout in the final game, and then we can jump on a little earlier than normal. But yeah, after the final game of the day, we're starting out our brand new podcast series called The Bubble Rap. It's the greatest name in sports podcast history. The Bubble Rap. We'll jump on here late night

and talk about the games,

the storylines, whatever we want to, and have some laughs. Maybe we'll have some drinks while we do it because it'll be super late at night. All right? The bubble wrap starting July 30th, and we'll take that all the way through in theory, even over the weekends, at least until we get to the playoffs and see if, you know, see if the people like it.

Great.
