Julius Randle Is In Health and Safety Protocols.

[2010]

Embiid was vaccinated when he got hit with COVID hard. Breakthrough cases exist, which seems like a lot of people aren’t aware of unfortunately.

That’s supposed to be the scare tactic left for the unvaccinated (hospitalization, severe symptoms, etc). You know this. This is your field.

By scare tactic you mean the hospitalization data that allows us to make informed decisions? I personally don’t find the data to be scary it’s actually really comforting. If people find data and line graphs scary that may be their own inner voice trying to tell them something, any emotions generated are up to the individual interpreter but the stats are the stats

You must have missed the enlarged. I can’t speak for anyone so I speak for delf. I ain’t scared of jack schit. I do what’s best for me and my family.

Well that’s the other thing like surely we all know nobody is going to be scared into getting a vaccine at this point someone might become convinced by the data and go for it but it’s not going to be as a result of hysteria when we’re already 2 years deep into this

What about the community?

It's pretty telling you didn't mention it, and that you limited your view to your close circle, which may or may not share or follow your views (you know that, I don't).

I swore to myself I wouldn't discuss this online. But as melo said the vaccine is about increasing the odds of being (generally) safer. And it does, even with breakthrough cases. For us as individuals, and for each other as a community.

Fear for others is likely bigger than just hysteria. Some have had their livelihoods threatened and felt like their hand was forced. This thing is layered. But like I always say. People gotta do what’s best for them and their family.

Rule #1, don’t make assumptions brother. But I definitely spoke on community responsibility. I went into this in the appropriate thread. Don’t wanna derail this one. Can’t be drawing the ire of my man Cap!

I'm new to this forum, since I'm posting as my dad, but I believe this is about the time he'd post this: IB4TL

Dammit, was hoping they’d instead now extend the quarantine period through the end of the season. Oh well.

Your dad is a great man...and a terrible comedian..

[stuporman]

Wow, just logged in to see this info and I hope he is well, recovers quick and fully.

Of course, now we get to see what the Knicks look like without Randle and against some teams who aren't that strong so there's a certain amount of cushion to adjust.

Those of you who think Obi is ready to take the next step and the only thing holding him back is the guy in front of him will get your wish to see him prove it.

Randle recently came in at -30 so he should be cleared soon.

[blueNorange]

can we stop talking about covid? especially when most of y'all don't know chit, so put the bunsen burner away.

[B8RcDeMktfxC]

I have to say that reading all this stuff, including my own, without being able to respond to it, makes one realize how "Please use a more appropriate term" most of it is.

What did you get suspended for?

Hi.

I'm posting on behalf of my father, who you knew as "Thebuzzardman".

It's a long story, but after being banned, he became more mentally unstable than usual and his mood swings, always strange after Knicks wins and losses, took a more extreme edge. I think it was due to not being able to post about his beloved Knicks. While my dad was basically a decent person, he did occasionally show signs of being a "drunk uncle", though he chalked it up to satire and sarcasm, which he said people my age were less able to detect due to "oversensitivity". We debated this, but he just leaned harder into the bitter side of his personality and in his last days embraced right wing nationalism, QAnon and took to ranting on twitter. Then we found him hanging in the garage.

He said I should honor his memory by continuing to post about basketball, that there were a handful of posters who knew what they were talking about, but most everyone, like him, was just an assh*les staking out opinions and trying to win arguments. I don't follow sports or basketball, but he indicated I could learn about the game from some people on here, but none of them were mods.

He left us some money, mostly nice memories and a dirty Patrick Ewing jersey.

What are your pronouns?

The more 10 day covid-hardship contracts are given the more likely NBPA members (who are fringe players) are to be cut.

Both sides are motivated to reduce the barriers to playing to as little as they can, given some PR-face-saving and political posturing is requisite, as fast as possible.

I’d rather see you attempt to educate us.

Does “cuttable fringe player” include Randle?

[DaGawd]

We need you bro.. get well soon

[DickGrayson]

This belongs here...

We need Randle to go into covid protocol and see what we got with the rest of the starters

My man

This board will attack Kyrie Irving and other athletes, as well as their own friends, family and neighbors for not taking the jab. Many of you are calling for laws that will mandate vaccinations, and some even advocate for loss of pay and health benefits, as well as fines and jail time for those who won't get the jab.

And then you people will turn around and wish Covid on one of our players (someone's father, husband and son), just because he's not playing well. You disgust me.

All the clowns that celebrated Randle getting COVID look dumb asf as usual

You that stupid that you expected us to get wins? We don’t want to watch your hero cuz we’d rather watch young players who actually play team ball and have a chance to grow here long term. You thumping your chest cuz we losing games. That’s exactly what we wanna do! Lose games with the kids and get a better pick. Who tf wanna lose games with iso-Randle and no development except you and a few other of his stans?

Nah y’all was beating y’all chest saying the Knicks were a much better team without Randle posting all these irrelevant stats and we can’t even beat two lottery teams. Now you tryna change the narrative saying nobody was expecting wins you can miss me with that bs
