Should Rudy Gobert get a multi-game suspension?

[highwhey]

I believe so. He made an open mockery of the situation and has infected 2 teammates thus far...that's what is confirmed as of now, imagine how many other players from different teams he could have infected.

The players will be alright, what about the hourly wage staff he infected?

He should be suspended for an entire season.

The league shutdown bc of him.

[Proctor]

The Jazz wouldn't be any worse off...so probably.

[BarberSchool]

Some of those media/reporters are gonna sue him.

[bigkingsfan]

Looks like he's suspended for the rest of the season.

[bobopenguin]

so u guys decided to blame a french dude who was infected by a viruse which was was spread by chinese commies?
u guys seriously need to get priority stright.

He's being shit on for mocking the severity of the disease and trying to make a joke out of it.

My boy Rudy got em steaming :lol

Not a good look, Rudy :mad:

[madmax]

he should be deported to france.




disgusting french fakkit.

this...
I always knew there was a logical explanation for my hatred of those fruity french *****

[Ghost1]

:roll:

[FKAri]

I believe they should wait till he is no longer contagious then allow anyone who has any grievance in regards to him to go ahead and fucc him in the ass in a public setting. It's the only solution I think is appropriate given the situation and is fair to all parties involved.

[NBAGOAT]

there's some speculation mitchell is patient zero now however. Rudy deserves some shit for being a careless idiot however

[Meticode]

No, it was going to happen anyway.

[CoastalRyan]

No one knows who infected who. I’m willing to bet that 10-20 nba players have it.

[bobopenguin]

up to date there's still multiple ppl think this diease is nothing more than just a media hype and refuse to wear mask. What he did is ignorant like every other normal ppl.

Chinese government is the one to blame, and yeah, their government offical spokeman just came out and told to public on twitter it's USA army who bought this disease to china and spread it around. They are blaming it on u guys, and u guys still sucking chinese d*cks, omg.

Is this supposed to mean something? China has been trying to pass on blame for awhile now. Of course they are saying this.

[baudkarma]

He's an idiot. But if he serves as an example of what not to do, and what happens when you take The Virus lightly, he could be a useful idiot. He's certainly brought the severity of the situation to peoples attention in a very public way. But to address the topic, he didn't violate any league rules, so you'd have a tough time getting a suspension past the players union.

Mitch wasn't exactly pleased with the situation either. He threw some subs. Rumor has it he was fcking around in the locker rooms messing around with players knowing he may have had the virus because he was sick.

[oldtimer28]

Yes, definitely punished. Fine all 2020 salary to create a Coronavirus vaccine

[DoctorP]

hes going to have get an ass tattoo that says ASS

Chris Haynes: The NBA will not fine or suspend Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert (https://*********.com/social/) for his actions leading up to testing positive for the coronavirus, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.
– via Twitter ChrisBHaynes (https://twitter.com/ChrisBHaynes)


Adam Silver said that the NBA reached out to Rudy Gobert to develop a PSA to help combat the spread of COVID-19 (https://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap/257527/Adam-Silver-Says-NBA-Asked-Rudy-Gobert-To-Develop-PSA-To-Help-Combat-COVID-19). Gobert tested positive for the virus, leading the NBA to suspend the league for at least 30 days.

[LAVAR BALL]

Did he act stupidly with the press, Mic and all, sure
Does he deserve a fine for it: if stupidity was fine-worthy, 90% of this board would be concerned

And Yes, maybe Donovan is the one who gave it to Rudy, not the other way around. No one can be sure anyway

[highwhey]

Rudy Gobert fans should be fined too and banned form this forum.

[guy]

No. My guess is people may look at it as a bad example to set for the rest of the world to punish someone that contracted the virus. Sure, they wouldn't be punishing him for contracting it, they would be punishing him for his carelessness, but alot of people might not understand that and look at it that way.

[Axe]

Gobert must be receiving death threats from his teammates and the whole league rn.

Shams Charania: Detroit Pistons‘ Christian Wood has tested positive for coronavirus, (https://*********.com/social/) sources tell @The Athletic @Stadium.

Rudy certainly doesn't deserve any blame as he was not aware. But touching the mics and making it a point to mock it was careless and irked me personally.

That is literally 100% the issue here. Dude was making a mockery of the pandemic and because of his deliberate actions he put several people in danger.

No one would be making a big deal out of Gobert being the first testing positive but it was reported he went around touching teammates and then the microphones as if it's all a joke.

Toronto Raptors’ forward Chris Boucher was photographed at a downtown Toronto Loblaws on Thursday, just one day after he was ordered into self-isolation (https://toronto.citynews.ca/2020/03/16/raptors-boucher-breaks-self-isolation-coronavirus/). The Raptors had been told to self-isolate after playing the Utah Jazz on March 9. Jazz player Rudy Gobert had tested positive for COVID-19 on Wednesday, triggering the suspension of the NBA season.
– via toronto.citynews.c (https://toronto.citynews.ca/2020/03/16/raptors-boucher-breaks-self-isolation-coronavirus/)


A photo sent to CityNews showed Boucher at the Loblaws location on Thursday evening, wearing gloves, but no mask. The Raptors have responded to the photo acknowledging it was Boucher, saying he had been asymptomatic since returning to Toronto and has since tested negative for COVID-19. (https://*********.com/storyline/coronavirus/)“He has been told to self-monitor for any symptoms. However, he broke protocol. He is extremely regretful,” a statement from the Raptors read (https://toronto.citynews.ca/2020/03/16/raptors-boucher-breaks-self-isolation-coronavirus/).

how many games for him?

[Turbo Slayer]

Nah. Rudy shouldnt. He apologized and said sorry. No big deal.

[EllEffEll]

So, they should make up a rule, and then charge him with breaking it?

I can't emphasize enough that I sincerely don't like what he did at all (it was totally irresponsible), I'm not defending him for doing it, and he 100% should have known better.

This situation is unprecedented. We've all learned from it. I believe he'll be harder on himself than we could ever be, and there are probably some gestures he could make to try to atone for his actions that would go a long way toward rehabilitating his his brand/image. However, for the time being, we have bigger fish to fry.

[Charger]

So any update on his condition? News about him has been pretty quiet lately. It would be good to know what he's condition is.

[LukeWalton]

yes. most of the players who got Corona whether Jazz, Lakers, Nets, etc.. were the ones who showered with Gobert.

@rudygobert27
Just to give you guys an update, loss of smell and taste is definitely one of the symptoms, haven’t been able to smell anything for the last 4 days. Anyone experiencing the same thing?

[highwhey]

I take back this thread, he's obviously feeling guilty and has since felt the repercussions. I hope Rudy makes a swift recovery. No suspension was ever warranted.

Get it done, Silver. Give us justice you *****.
