    When I had it, I was miserable for a couple of days. But I’ve been fine with no lingering effects that I have noticed. I’ve read natural immunity is better than the shot, but I don’t see that option being addressed in public policies. I think it can take years of studies to prove that.

    Lots of conflicting information out there, and I think that’s normal with anything this new. Over time, I’m sure things will become clear. The NBA does a great job overall taking care of their people, so I’m sure they are doing their due diligence before rolling something out.

    I do lean towards personal choice on something like this, so I feel for the guys who really don’t want it. My fear is we have players with adverse side effects that affect their careers or teams. I read they were going to also require testing or full vaccinations for fans 2 years of age and up if they would be seated within 15’ of players or NBA personnel. So it’s not just players dealing with this.

    The new normal stinks! Looking forward to the days where this is an afterthought.

    That’s what you call going all in on an opportunity.

    when they fail miserably it’s going to be so sweet

    As a starter in this league he's done. As a 3rd string center he's alright. Can still finish lobs and continue to suck on defense because of his lack of speed.

    Basically, his hops = (very) good, his mobility = bad. For a 3rd stringer who is getting the minimum... he's just fine. He's younger than half of our team.

    So..we are about to have 3 5's and folks still expect AD to play a lot of 5? Something smells fishy here to me. Either Gasol is about to retire or AD won't be ready to go to start the season.

    Could mean AD won’t be playing much 5 during the regular season or alternatively Gasol isn’t coming back.

    I don’t expect DAJ to play much, he’ll be the 14th guy and get quite a bit of DNP’s.

    Our bench has more experience than 90% of NBA rosters (guessing the exact percentage)
