NSFWish, I guess.

This looks as bogus as a $3 dollar bill.

Don't think it really hurts the Lakers that much. This could actually help them with Lebron handling the ball more.

I saw the headline and thought he was in the bubble. Didn't realize they held him back for this exact reason and just didn't announce it

Yep, and I suspect that is what is going on with the Nuggets players mentioned above.

2 more players tested positive. I don't have much faith that this season will continue, nor should it. It's too big of a risk. Last thing I want is Jaylen and Jayson being limited to 20 mpg 5 years from now because of the long term effects caused by Covid.

Do you think Jaylen and Jayson, or any of the other players, would be safer outside of the bubble?

Depends on the player. If they stay inside, wear a mask and practice social distancing, then yes, I do. Social distancing isn't possible when playing basketball.

But if they aren't responsible, then no, they wouldn't be safer. Bottom line - you are basically punishing the players who take extra measures to stay covid-free by having them play against the players who don't.

A 0.6% positive rate is great news...

2 players who were positive most likely got it in final test at team facility before coming to Orlando since they tested positive during the quarantine period and didn’t clear quarantine.

Nothing to worry about for NBA restart

Same as Westbrook?! Both guys not in the bubble yet.

Post #1458 » by **Parliament10** » Mon Jul 13, 2020 11:52 pm

So, no one "inside the Bubble" has tested positive, thus far. Right?

Edit:
The 2 players that tested positive, were quarantined at the outset, and have never actually entered "The Bubble".
But no player active "inside the Bubble" has tested positive. Correct?

Do I think there are less risky options for them than living and playing in bubble of possibly 1,000 people in a state Of 20 million people where up to 20-25% of the population will be carriers at some point in July alone?

Yes, I do.
