Maybe the test kits are in shorter supply than originally thought.It's been a a complete mess from the start imo. Some teams were testing, other teams didn't. They probably had players with Covid and played 2 weeks with it. LMAO
Or maybe they thought, "F-it, these guys are young and healthy, let them get exposed and get over it so we don't have any issues for the playoffs." Never mind families and friends exposure. Never mind potential long term effects. Never mind asymptomatic carriers.
Is Greg Abbot running the NBA now?
Some teams complained i assume (Lebron did too, and rightfully tho) -> daily surveillance/some teams all of the sudden getting covid cases (Utah, GSW, Miami, xxx). Delta / Omicron hated some NBA teams before, and recently decided lets get them
Wonder how this shit going to fare the next few months and into the playoffs. Teams that still want to test daily or often (just because they believe its the right thing to do) are at an utter disadvantage if more positive tests showing up. Do you test, and hide the results from the public, if they are ok and capable to play?
How do you not have 3rd party testing from the start? And if you decide to drop it, you do it.
