    Like I said, it didn't take a "Rockets" scientist to figure out what happened. If it was something else they would have said family matter or the like, even if they said it was private. Only COVID-19 gets this reaction, including the timing right before flying to Florida with 3 other people not going, including Harden.

    But sure, if you want to say nothing was officially confirmed you can say that, but anyone with the ability to deduce figured it out days ago, which wasn't that hard.

    The healthiest team gets the 'chip this year. I guess it's better to have your stars get it now instead of during the playoffs?

    Man, I hope Russ will be okay. If he found out he had it before getting on the plane, what does that mean for his family? Was he spreading it not knowing he had it..

    What does that mean for his career? His whole thing is immeasurable effort. The Rona saps you of all that. oh boy.

    He came out, respect.

    Speedy recovery.

    I think it got to do with that BLM march.

    He said Harden has it.

    We assumed WB got it while protesting.

    I hope Luc doesn't and he was only late for the flight but it's unclear.

    This is not an "I told you so" moment IMO. People took the information that was given and came to a logical conclusion. Anyone who missed their team's flight to the Bubble I think has the Rona. Luc, Harden, Lucas and Kawhi. They probably all have it.

    Kawhi is already in Orlando. so again it's speculation whether or not he has Rona just like anyone else before it is confirmed. people just love to assume.

    I didn't know Kawhi was already in Orlando. He doesn't have it.

    Luc and Lucas they probably have it

    these guys have it too.

    Well, look at the bright side of this.

    Now that you have your top 2 players just went through this and recovered, as long as there are no major damage to their current health and conditions, they both will have a very low chances to get infected again in the short future. That could be huge down the road when the playoff starts.

    The first 8 games or so are meaningless, as long as you will make it, there is no home court advantage.

    They reported it as a family thing he had to attend but could be covid related too.

    Clippers said it was family related for Kawhi. Nobody has given a reason for the other people missing.
