The NBA will not let the Knicks practice on stage this summer

Knicks hopes to hold a mandatory OTA this summer have vanished, according to industry sources.

Eight teams not involved in the Orlando restart pushed for the Organized Team Activity to make up for the missed Orlando restart. But the NBA and its players association will not allow all that is mandatory, according to sources.

Some teams – not the Knicks – lobbied to hold a one-location summer league tournament with eight teams, but the large COVID-19 protocol in Orlando was too complicated to apply to random teams, the source said.

NBPA Director Michele Roberts signaled concern over OTA’s “Delete 8” during Friday’s conference call, but did not rule it out.

“To be honest, while I appreciate that there will be a few layoffs, I think there are a number of things these teams can do to get players who don’t play. [benefit] by those not involved in Orlando, “Roberts said.” But unless we can replicate by any means the protocol made for Orlando, I’m going to – I’m docile now – suspicious. “

His concern is having eight teams train at their facility, then letting players return to their families. That is against the rules followed by 22 teams in the Orlando bubble scheduled for July 7.

According to sources, the Knicks were only interested in holding a week-long minicamp with their young players after the end of July and did not want a match. That way a new coach can feel his team before the opening of the November 6 camp.

The league does not rule out the training of informal group setting teams, based on state social distance law, but only voluntarily and with strict guidelines, according to sources. For now, “Delete 8” is permitted to hold individual exercises in their training facilities like 22 other clubs.

Taj Gibson and Frank Ntilikina were at the Knicks facility in Tarrytown on Friday. Mitchell Robinson and Kenny Wooten also worked there.

NBA deputy commissioner Mark Tatum indicated voluntary group training could still be arranged in the future.

“We want the same standards to be met, and there are conversations we have with players’ associations about how to present and whether we can do that or not,” Tatum said. “We know it is something our team wants to do, which some players want to do. It must be done the right way. We will continue to have that conversation. ‘

Roberts said a team like the Knicks could find a way to get young player training. During the summer, the Knicks have sent coaches to the hometown of the players.

“I think our team is very smart and creative and can find ways to get their people engaged, if not now, before the season starts,” Roberts said. “But I really care and frankly, our players, our team is very concerned with any game that does not have the same safety and health guarantees that we give to teams in Orlando. You never say never, but there are standards that must be met. ’

Maestro de Braga is the first Portuguese in the National Symphony Orchestra of Cuba.

Maestro Filipe Cunha, Artistic Director of the Philharmonic Orchestra of Braga, has been invited to conduct the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra, as announced today.

According to a statement sent by O MINHO, “he will be the first Portuguese conductor to conduct this orchestra in its entire history.”

In addition to this orchestra, the maestro will also work with the Lyceo Mozarteum de la Habana Symphony Orchestra.

The concerts will take place on 4 and 12 March 2023 at the National Theater of Cuba in Havana.

In the words of the maestro, quoted in the statement, “these will be very beautiful concerts with difficult but very complex pieces” and therefore he feels “very motivated”.

From the very beginning, Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2 will be performed by an Italian pianist (Luigi Borzillo), whom the maestro wants to bring to Portugal later this year. In the same concert, Mendelshon’s First Symphony will be performed.

Then, at the second concert, in the company of the Mexican clarinetist Angel Zedillo, he will perform the Louis Sfora Concerto No. 2. In this concert, the maestro also conducts Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony.

“This is an international recognition of my work. An invitation that I accept with humility and great responsibility. I was surprised to learn that I would be the first Portuguese member of the Cuban National Symphony Orchestra. This is a very great honor,” the maestro said in a statement.

“I take with me the name of the city of Braga and Portugal with all the responsibility that goes with it, and I hope to do a good job there, leaving a good image and putting on great concerts. These will be very special concerts because, in addition to performing pieces that I love, especially Rachmaninov and Tchaikovsky, I will be directing two wonderful soloists who are also my friends. It will be very beautiful,” concludes Filipe Cunha.
