Chris Paul enters COVID Protocol

[mjb21aztd]

Push series back till paul gets healthy please..... lol ugh fing crappy day!!!!!!!

If they’re concerned most about TV ratings, I’d think the Sunday prime time spot that historically gets them the biggest audience would be something they wouldn’t move off.

I agree.

But then I wonder if moving it gives not only Chris Paul but Donovan Mitchell and Mike Conley the chance to play at full strength, that may be something they discuss.

The Suns are not going to get special treatment with the series being delayed for Chris Paul. IDK how this rumor started but it is pretty out there I think.

Honestly i was just jkin lol

I got nothing. Logically, there should be a different protocol for a player that has been vaccinated and is showing no symptoms. But the Suns are always the victims of the letter of the law (thinking Amare and Boris).

Praying for two negative tests. That will get you on an airplane.

logically, if you have the virus, whether your vaxxed or not, you can give it to other people. As much as it sucks , this ain’t a letter of the law thing. This is a common sense thing.

I'm not sure it is? Isn't it possible that the level needed to test positive is below the threshold needed to be infectious?

symptomatic is an opinion and to a 36 year old in the WCF, he's outwardly not feeling a symptom even if he's on his deathbed. we need 2 negative tests in a row and he's rocking

Doctors would disagree with you.

Father's day. Terrible for TV

it’s always been a huge ratings day during the Finals.

I don’t believe that is true. That’s why a virus has a contagious period. Once that is passed it doesn’t mean the virus is out of your system. It just means there is not enough of it to pass on.

Elevated Temp.

It is actually great. Dad can watch the game with no complaints about it.

I never understood this argument. Is t Father’s Day about what father wants? Which is to watch the game.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Yeah no. I have to go watch Peter Rabbit 2 with my kid

 

[JCSunsfan]

Uh. No. It’s dinner with the family and grandkids. No one leaves dad alone to watch the game on Father’s Day.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Yeah no. I have to go watch Peter Rabbit 2 with my kid

That’s just bc she’s little still. Eventually Father’s Day should be about the father. I have faith in your wife that your family will get there.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Uh. No. It’s dinner with the family and grandkids. No one leaves dad alone to watch the game on Father’s Day.

the father doesn’t get to call his shot on Father’s Day. Does not compute.

 

[AZ Native]

Uh. No. It’s dinner with the family and grandkids. No one leaves dad alone to watch the game on Father’s Day.

You watch it with him. It's his day.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Huh. Our family has always celebrated the person. Birthday? Plan what would make them happy. Mother’s Day? Plan what mom would want. Father’s Day? Plan what dad would want. Not many days in people’s lives where you get to celebrate just them. One or two days a year to recognize someone you love in a loving manner (read, loving them enough to do what they want to do), shouldnt too much.

If spending dinner with family and grandkids is what you would choose, good on you for getting that.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

You watch it with him. It's his day.

Exactly.

admittedly, cheese, brother-who/shall-not-post and I are lucky that pops loves sports maybe more than all three of us. So what he wants is what we want as well.

 

[ajcardfan]

Uh. No. It’s dinner with the family and grandkids. No one leaves dad alone to watch the game on Father’s Day.

It's your day. Do what YOU want. You have the other 364 days of the year to do what they want.

Yes, but logically, if most signs point to you probably not having the virus, the most likely explanation for a positive test is a testing error. The most recent number I could find (in a quick search) estimates the false positive rate at 0.5%. With the thousands of tests the NBA has done, it's pretty much guaranteed that a few false positives were in there.

A colleague of mine had a positive test and dutifully did her full quarantine. This was several months ago. She had all of the extra risk factors: middle-aged, black, overweight, underlying health problems. Never showed any covid symptoms at all and made a full "recovery." We can't know for sure, but I think it's pretty likely that her one positive test was false.
