He got Booker's return two days before anyone else. Anything medical he gets right
No he got the details wrong on that too. He indicated Book had no symptoms first which ended up being reported as unsure at the time. Book ended up having to test twice in 24 hours to get cleared which means at some point he was a-symptomatic. The protocols were clear on when he could return. He just used that time frame to predict when he would be back but the protocols spelled that out. Also, the radio reported it first. Not him on Twitter.

He was days before the radio. Days.
Also it was confirmed on 98.7 multiple times that he was asymptomatic
Medical would also explain how he was on the CP3 thing so early. Team has to get medicals to explore a trade.
They also reported they were not sure. When you enter the league’s health and safety protocols. As a vaccinated player, can return if he tests negative twice in a row, at least 24 hours apart, while also not exhibiting any symptoms. I was confused by all the different reporting on this as well. Nobody seemed to understand the new rules.
The new rule says players who test positive are out for six days provided those players are asymptomatic and meet other testing standards. Everybody was predicting he would be back around that time.

What’s the confusion here? Are you saying because he had to test twice a day and failed for several days in a row that he couldn’t have been asymptomatic?
He can have tests come back positive without having symptoms, and it was in his and the teams best interest to continue the testing every single day until he had two negatives in a row. ESPECIALLY if he wasn’t showing any symptoms.
Sidenote: These are the listed symptoms I have to answer any day to go to the office. It's so broad I was honest once and I had to get a COVID test and wait two days to even come in.
1. Have you tested Positive for COVID?
2. Have you travelled to a Hot Spot recently
3. Have you had a cough within 14 days
4. Have you had difficulty breathing or any shortness of breath in 14 days
5. Have you had a sore throat within the last 14 days
6. Have you lost your sense of smell or taste in the last 14 days
7. Have you had a headache in the last 14 days
8. Have you had body aches or chills in the last 14 days
9. Have you had any fatigue in the last 14 days
10. Have you had any nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea in the last 14 days
11. Have you had any close contact with anyone who has or may have had COVID in the last 14 days
12. Do you have a temperature greater than 100.4 in the last 14 days

I was like "I did have a headache yesterday".
He was a-symptomatic at some point but nobody ever confirmed if he ever showed signs. They can't. It's a HIPPA violation. It's possible that he was testing positive for that week and was asymptomatic but the protocols say he can return with in so many days. Also, why wouldn't the team test every day? That's a given. The point being is the protocols are clear. Anybody can count down and predict when he would be back. They did on the radio as soon it was announced when he would likely be back.

Booker himself said he was asymptomatic while he was out. He also mentioned that because he was asymptomatic he didn't have to deal with any reconditioning when he came back.
OK. I missed that. I didn't see that interview. If he chose to release that it's not a HIPPA violation. Either way, the protocols dictated when he could be back. The day it was announced they were saying when he would likely be back.

Really? Like Bookers nose wasn’t broken or that CP3 might be back by Game 1 of the WCF and definitely by Game 2? Or that CP3 was working out the entire time while he was out with Covid in the playoffs only for CP3 to come out and say he didn’t do anything based on doctors orders?
I almost forgot....don't forget Flex reported Booker was cleared only they announced pregame he was still out under H&S protocols which means that was bunk!
LOL I went to go pull up the Booker's return and Cheesie is on that tweet hating on him and he was right. Telling him to delete his account.
That's some funny stuff

Except he said Booker was cleared when he wasn't by the league office yet. Pre-game they said he was still under Health & Safety protocols. I didn't read @cheesebeef Tweet but Flex was still wrong on that. Maybe Cheese shouldn't have deleted the Tweet afterall. Booker was not cleared by the league office until the next game. Flex was likely throwing a dart and missed by one game based on the H&S protocols days rules.
He correctly called the game he would play the day before anyone was on it. That's not a guess. Again likely has a medical contact that new that Booker tested negative and would play at the Miami game.

Not true. Everybody was calling one of those two games the week before. I heard it time and time again. It's because everybody was working from the days required protocol rules. That's not inside information. That's math. Also, I can pull up the Tweet if you need. He said that Booker was CLEARED of H&S protocols. He was wrong. He wasn't. He didn't get his final negative test until they day after. He has gotten multiple medical things incorrect as Cheese pointed out as well. I also recall earlier this season him being way off on another medical issue. I am going to search to see if I can find it. Obviously, his info isn't as rock solid as you think. Let's also not forget about the since deleted Tweets he got CRUSHED on earlier this season.

Best team in the NBA? So what, let's try to actually find stupid stuff to argue about!

I prefer argy-bargy but that's me.
I don't get why he upsets people so much but that is fine.

Right? I haven’t participated in a single flex argument because . . . who cares?!?

Monty rightly questions the criteria for MVP with Devin Booker is listed at #9.

Supposedly winning games is what is supposed to be the biggest stat, until it's a Phoenix Sun, then it isn't.
