Not even the unvaccinated players like Kyrie or Beal have been reported to be hospitalized. So clearly with Randle being vaccinated he will be good. Let’s stop acting like anyone has wished him death or anything remotely near that. Cats breaking out violins and schit. Despite some taking the ethical approach like “it’s not that serious to celebrate someone getting COVID” others can spin it as “it’s not that serious, his life is not in the balance.” I can see both sides. No one needs to be shamed for how they emotionally reacted to the news. These are some the best athletes in the world. Plus he’s vaccinated. He will be good.

Now let’s enjoy some Obi!!!!!!!

Facts that's exactly what I'm saying. It's not that serious. Nobody wishes bad on this man we just wanna see how the team looks w.o him for some games. We finally got our chance, let's see what Thibs and the young kids can do.

This feels surreal.

Covid is serious but mostly for people already in poor health not athletes in top top shape with unrivaled nutrition and health experts.

Not a single person in here said they wish Randle got COVID. Yet some have expressed happiness to not see him burn their eyes and nose with the sight and smell of his garbage play, for at least a few games. We happy to see Obi get some extended burn too. You mad dramatic.

You on the other hand not making sense. In one thread you saying the vaccines aren’t effective, yet you’re saying he will be fine since he’s vaccinated. Make up ur mind. :lol:


I don’t believe they are as effective as they’re being marketed and promoted. But I’m in a tiny minority.

But you and the overwhelming majority swear by them and have the data to back it up, right? So I’m championing the party line. Randle will be good, right? According to you, your expertise, your degree etc. he should definitely fare better than Kyrie and Beal, right? And even with breakthrough cases, surely his symptoms should be minimized and not require hospitalization, right? So what you so worried about? You the one being inconsistent. Your hero will be fine.


Some of these same posters wish death to the unvaccinated in the Covid thread. So it's funny, how they are all soft eyes and puppy love here. :roll:


Yeah, I don’t recall anyone going that far

Somehow Thibs will screw up starting Obi by saying he don’t want to screw up bench. Expect the worst.

That’s exactly what Melo wanted you to do. :lol:

He can’t bear to witness cats joy over not having to watch his mans n dem for a few games.

:lol:

That’s why he dragged the COVID thread in here. He think he slick. It’s a distraction!!!

There are a lot of breakthrough cases occurring but if a person is sufficiently vaccinated, they tend not to be serious. Of course, any respiratory issue is likely to impact a professional athlete's ability to run the floor, play a lot of minutes, etc.

If I remember correctly, I read that Randle was one of the players who received the Moderna vaccine (with the majority receiving the J&J).

My guess is that he will not be out for too long.

I honestly dont think Obi will start, even tho he obv should. Thibs will go with Taj or move RJ to the 4 and start Burks or Grimes. But we shall see. This will tell us a lot about how Thibs views Obi.

Taunting Melo over his BS does not qualify under the aforementioned criteria.

around 75 percent of the league will probably spend time in protocols before this is all done. since they think this will peak in late january and we've already had so many players with it.

Pistons lineup was legendary. How many guys were out due to protocol? 12-13? I think that’s the most in the NBA.

I don’t mean he’s faking having Covid. That’s not what health and safety protocols are. They could’ve simply said he’s been exposed and now he has to register so many negative test to get back on the court.

You have to admit, the way this unfolded deserves the side eye.

It’s pretty likely he has COVID
Any vaccinated NBA player is placed in the health and safety protocols after testing positive for COVID-19 or receiving an inconclusive COVID-19 test result.


Only unvaccinated players that were exposed enter protocols. Randle was vaccinated however


Idk this all confusing

The difference between vaccinated and unvaccinated players will also govern the rules surrounding what happens when contact tracing flags a player as being possibly exposed to a person who is positive for COVID-19, the NBA told teams.

Those who are fully vaccinated will not be required in most cases to quarantine, though will need seven days of testing. Unvaccinated players flagged by contact tracing will need to quarantine for seven days

Maybe he is going through stuff ... although probably they would not just come up with some protocol excuse. I wish him well. This is all basketball stuff. One doesn't need to be good at basketball or like competition to be a good person ... hope that is obvious.

I said there are breakthrough cases, meaning there’s symptoms and some long term effects. Vaccines don’t 100% protect you, which is very obvious.

You flip flopping all over the place. One thread “vaccines don’t work!!”, another thread “oh he’s vaccinated he should be fine”. :lol: like you said you just happy Randle ain’t playing, even if it means flip flopping your beliefs to show your happiness :lol:
