Chris Paul enters COVID Protocol

[CardsSunsDbacks]

It's up to the team, mixed with state regulations.

In Portland, they capped at 8k and vaccinated sections thst were closer to players and you had to show proof. Also, vaccinated or not, masked were mandatory. Blame Sarver for being so lose.

We don't even know if that is how he got it and that is assuming that he actual has Covid.

And if you end up spreading it the rest of the team and now everyone is in protocols? I would rather be short just CP3 for some of the series than potential 2-3 key players.

CDC says vaccinated people do not spread it.

My comment was in response to an "if that's how he got it".

Of course, we just can't have nice things. Next man up..oh wait that was BAs mantra.

Looks like the rest v. rust argument’s been settled!

This has been bad news this morning but I find some comfort knowing Chris Paul was vaccinated and the Suns organization had the highest participation level in league in getting vaccinated. It shows they took the virus seriously.

This sucks. As the week drags on we will know by default if Chris was asymptomatic or not. The later we get in the week the less likely it is that he was asymptomatic and actually showing symptoms. Not only will he miss games, but miss practice time as well which likely means it will have a major impact on the WCF.

Do we have to worry about other players now testing positive? Not sure how much contact Paul had during his infection. I just can't believe we are sitting here talking about a breakthrough event when the Suns FINALLY see some success after more than a decade.

This was my biggest fear, when I saw CP3 and others climbing into the stands with the crowd and families after game 4.

This was my immediate thought...still dumb. But nonetheless the "rules" I suppose.

 

[AzStevenCal]

Not worried. Yet.

 

[82CardsGrad]

Not worried. Yet.

Ditto...

Hello again ye old curse.

It was fun as long as it lasted.

F the curse. We got this. Kawhi out with a bum knee in a tied series. Conley missing for the Jazz. Ain't no one said this was gonna be easy. Enjoy the ride!

The Suns looking like a favorite to win the NBA title...

David Silver to his assistants: "See what you guys can dig up to give me grounds to suspend Chris Paul!"

The ghost of David Stern nods approvingly in the background.

"Get busy worrying....or get busy enjoying..."

Good ole phrase from Andy Dufresne I tweaked a touch...

 

[Covert Rain]

Trying to stay positive here and just focus on the facts.

Even though the facts are nobody should be surprised regardless of the outcome that even at the very least the Suns getting this kind of scare is in character.

Monty Williams told us: "You don't want to get happy on the farm" and "Everything you want is on the other side of hard."

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

Hopefully the Clippers can fins a way to push it to a game 7. Give us a couple more days to get Paul back.

Of course if the Kawhiless Clippers can find a way to still win that series I would love our chances in the WCF even without Paul.

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

Hopefully this is true. Means he isn't as far away from completing the process if his first positive was up to 2-3 days ago.

Does anyone know how the testing works? If he had a test on Monday, and say he test negative tomorrow and negative again on Friday, would we be home free?

I believe so if he isn't showing symptoms. If he is showing symptoms he would have to at least wait until he has a few days without symptoms and negative tests.
