    Chicago Bulls next 2 games postponed due to Covid. 10 players out
    Hmmm, why is the NBA postponing Bulls games when other teams have had to play shorthanded? This is garbage. Cavs lost 5 games due to players out from Covid and injuries but the Bulls catch a break. The NBA is so foul. Always protects their bigger market teams.

    Has any team had 10 players in covid protocols at once? Easy decision, except they waited too long.

    How many Cavs were in covid protcols at once?

    I will say they should have had clearer and objective postponement standards in place ahead of time. But any team with 10 covid protocol players at once should not be on the court, for the other team's safety if nothing else. Incidentally, this all traces back to Joel Embiid who infected Nikola Vucevic who spread it to his teammates. Embiid tested positive right after the Bulls played Philly B2B.

      I've never seen 10 in the NBA. The Cavs had 4 and it led to losses. What's the NBA policy? I can't seem to find any?

          4 is awfully different than 10. Notice the NBA did nothing when the Bulls had 4 then 6 then 7 then 9 in protocols. It took 10. But yeah, there should be a policy.

                      They did that and then guys they called up were getting infected. Point is that no team wants to face them when they might very well be infected.

                        10 is crazy. I'm sure they have a policy, I just haven't seen it for this year??

                                  So they all get a week or two off. They like their extra rest anyway.

                                      Well back in the days, HIV infection rate was higher because things like that. Touching a person with plague or small pox in the past did not make you tough. either people don’t know about the disease yet or because of stupidity.

                                        Nets have 5 players out due to Covid. This is in addition to crazy ass Kyrie being out and Joe Harris. Do we play the Raptors tonight (Durant may not play tonight with ankle soreness), Thursday vs 76ers and Saturday vs the Magic? This will be a touch stretch for them while Chicago goes on vacation early.

                                        The Nets was 8 points faves but now just 4. Covid is a huge betting factor. I still don't understand what's the threshold. 10??? When half your team is out that puts tremendous pressure on the other half to play major minutes which could lead to injuries.

                                        Hornets, Bulls, Nets, Lakers all had big issues. The Cavs also had issues but no one gave a shit when they lost 5 straight with only 8 players available??

                                                  You are missing the point Goatie. Why does Chicago get a break while other teams have to play??? WTF is going on? Why are they the only team allowed to postpone games? What is the policy? Who the fukk is making up the rules as they go?

                                                    Because they had 10 players in protocols at once. I guess the threshold is either 9 or 10 because they played with 8 in protocols. If another team gets 9 or 10 in protocols, then I'd expect the same result.
