Yeah.. NHL > NBA > NFL with how they are each treating this. Once the Christmas games are over, I could see the NBA doing what the NHL is doing to save face. But they won't jeopardize that day.

I'd put NFL above NBA for sure. Maybe 1 or 2 guys per team are out each week for Covid. Not entire rosters like the NBA.planetmars wrote: View PostComment

I meant in terms of handling player safety the NBA is ahead of the NFL.Primer wrote: View Post
The NFL is not testing asymptomatic players that are fully vaxxed. The NHL and NBA are. The NHL is suspending their season and not allowing players to go to the Olympics. The NBA is business as usual.

I would say business as usual would be letting aysmpto's choose to play. The nba is sitting everyone who even looked at someone with covid. Precious is in and out of protocol and never gets it. Seems his on court decision making and awareness translates off court as well.planetmars wrote: View Post

The Precious situation was 100% on the Raptors.. not on the NBA. That was Masai's and Bobby's decision to not play him.KeonClark wrote: View PostComment

He was in contact with someone at Masai's Giant of Africa event. But was not actually tested positive for covid. Out of precaution they held him back. This was not the NBA's doing, but was Toronto's doing.bertarapsfan wrote: View Post
He came back, and then actually got Covid, and is now out again.

It's the same reason why Jack and Matt were not announcing games. I don't believe they actually got Covid. They were just being extra careful. Although I'm not 100% sure on this.Comment

They both said they tested negative, so yeah they were just being careful.planetmars wrote: View PostComment

Yeah, I think that call was made by Masai. Probably didn't want his event being something that could derail the team.planetmars wrote: View PostComment

Right on the first point and this is where it is all headed. My surgeon buddy tells me they are changing the hospital protocols cause they were isolating close contacts and it was causing major staff shortages - now it is test to stay. As he put it, the 'real top docs' finally convinced the 'fake top docs' that the latter's plan was unsustainable.KeonClark wrote: View Post
But you can't blame people for getting sick or running afoul of some capricious rule. How many people in your life have you infected with colds or the flu and weren't even aware of it? My son brought home a cold from school and the entire family has now caught it. Not his fault.Comment

Uh, guys, no, Precious was entered into official NBA protocols after the GOA event due to a close contact, it was not something done out of an abundance of caution by Masai or the team. He is back in official protocols again.
Official protocols do not require a player test positive. Even a close contact to a positive test means 10 days isolation.Comment

How did Lebron get out in 2 days then?DanH wrote: View PostTo be the champs you got to beat the champsComment

Probably went into protocols on a close contact with a positive test that proved to be a false positive. If I had to guess.bertarapsfan wrote: View PostComment
