This is a reason the bubble may be doomed. Ton of false negatives, unreliable tests etc. The gold standard tests currently are only 70% accurate. A player here cleared quarantine after a bunch of negatives, only to test positive later and re-enter quarantine.

They need to shut down these exhibition games.

The bubble is a terrible idea for someone like Adam Silver who clearly has a limp dick.

David Stern gave 0 ****s about being PC and would just completely lock it down in a way that was essentially impenetrable.

If you wanted to do this thing right, you would have to isolate each player and each staff member and each reporter and anyone else inside the bubble individually for 3 weeks with a massive stockpile of food that was already there... and a situation in which nobody leaves and nobody enters. Anything else is foolishness.


Just call the season already... or play it out and say **** the virus.

It’s stupid, Holmes from Sacramento accidentally went out the other night and got carry out food, he could of EASILY contaminated the whole bubble
