NBA - The Re-Open: - Connaughton has Covid-19, pg. 94

[LuessiT]

Wasn’t he ready to play an nba game with it? Didn’t hear that he struggled health wise with it. If so then that changes it

Except no one knows what the long term effects are on your cardiovascular system, for example.

A tri teammate of mine got it about 2 months ago symptom free. He’s still running 10 mile splits at a 7:40 pace and biking 80 miles at a 21 mph speed. Short term no affects. I guess long term who knows

I mean I'm not disputing that there are plenty of asymptomatic cases and generally speaking you're better off if you're healthy, but healthy people have suffered (and died) from covid.

The Eric Bledsoe narrative is not one of strict linearity.

[Chuck Diesel]

So does everyone in the local AND national media just agree to not report on Bucks stuff now? Wild. Good for us, I guess.

It's been like that since LED took over.

I mean if they can silence ***** ******** ** ******* **** then silencing NBA media can’t be too difficult.

People still spreading the kind of rubbish about healthy people being fine aren't going to take in new information they don't like now. It's a very wilful ignorance

So according to some people who are better than I am at finding this stuff on Reddit, all Bucks are now accounted for in the bubble except for Bledsoe, Pat C, & Cam Reynolds.

I saw speculation that the reason Pat is not yet in the bubble is he took part in a wedding around July 4, which would makes sense that he would then have to isolate for two weeks and show a negative test to get in.

Who knows if they will even bring Cam Reynolds. Outside of half the team coming down with C-virus, I can't see him getting anywhere near the court. At least FMIII has a role. In a blowout he is the PG on the floor. In a blowout Cam would still be watching from the sidelines as DJ Wilson got blocked at the rim repeatedly.

Hopefully Bledsoe can join them in the bubble in time to get some minutes in those seeding games to work off some of the rust. The long layoff had to help his thumb and knees though. As it helped Giannis' knee and Hill's testicles.

Not sure what the advantage was on the part of Rich Paul and the Bucks to not simply acknowledge this two weeks ago. Makes zero sense. And if you were physically near Bledsoe 2-3 weeks ago, you’d appreciate knowing he has/had c-19.

Out of curiosity,do you guys have any reliable stats about healthy people and their death rate/serious health issues from covid?

It being publicly reported and those around him knowing are two separate things (and obviously contact tracing). Don't mistake them for one in the same.

Wouldn't assume those people weren't told. Highly unethical if not.

I think it’s unlikely if you test positive for having the Corona virus but without getting the Corana Virus Disease (= CoViD).

Two things:
1) Being previously healthy obviously helps if you contract the virus, but there are plenty of examples of long distance runners and health conscious people that have been in the ICU because of Covid. There is some evidence that the type of immune system you have and even your Blood type may make you more susceptible to not handling the disease well.

2) I still think it's weird that there have been no sightings of several Bucks, including Ersan, Pat, DJ and Kyle. Either they are in the bubble and the Bucks are purposely keeping them from interviews and photos or they aren't there for some reason.

Yup

No home court advantage is a definite factor. But who you're matched up with in the playoffs does matter.

Of course it does BUT like I’ve said the team isn’t going from 4 months off to playoffs ready in 2 weeks so I don’t want to see Giannis playing 40 minutes doing everything himself to win what amounts to an exhibition game. That’s how players get hurt. Like I’ve brought up before, remember Dorsey Levens hold out and then signing a contract and the team saying he’s kept himself in great shape so we are just going to throw him into the next game and he breaks his freaking leg. We need the whole team to win a championship and it’s going to take time, reps, practice and patience so if we win a few games and get the matchup we want great but I’ll be happier with 20 minutes of solid execution by the starters per game and everyone getting thru it healthy.

I’m saying win at what cost

Ersan is in Orlando. I’m 99% sure that DJ is in Orlando.

DJ was in the first Instagram post about traveling to Orlando.

I'm sure everyone on the Bucks were told. But I'm referring to the general public. What if I hung around Bledsoe at a gym, park, store, etc? I'm not getting a notification or any public notice. Part of this discussion Bledsoe/Bucks specific/part macro conversation around contract tracing.

Just like with any Joe public that tests positive, there will be limits to contact tracing. Also, in order to be considered "exposed" to someone carrying the virus...I think you need to be in close continuous contact for multiple minutes. Crossing paths with Bledsoe on the street likely carries little to no risk.

Awesomeness lol, stay for the “When you wish upon JR” lulz

[JayMKE]

You have to think more in terms of what would it benefit them to bring full disclosure to media/fans something that is private medical information, I am sure the people close to Bledsoe knew and its not like you guys weren't able to guess. There is probably an abundance of caution going on so perhaps these other missing players came into close contact with Bledsoe and are self isolating, it doesn't necessarily mean they all have tested positive.
