Chris Paul is in the Covid Protocol and is out indefinitely.

Just in case you thought God suddenly loved you Suns fans.

I really feel bad for Suns fans. That totally sucks.

I defended the NBA's decision on Lebron James when he attended the party and was ready to blast them for Paul until I learned that he isn't vaccinated.

The guy is the president of the player’s union, so he’s definitely not leading by example. He’s been quoted as saying it’s a personal choice, but what I don’t get is why a professional athlete, at the top of his game and who is on the cusp of leading his team to the Finals, and who has to keep his body in the best shape possible, wouldn’t get the vaccine. Doesn’t it matter at all to him that his team needs him on the floor?

Is it confirmed he's not vaccinated?

If he isn't.... that is epically stupid.

Covid was scared of Lebron. As was the NBA apparently.

CP ain’t got that kind of swag…

Jalen Rose said he has been vaccinated. Not sure if he knows for sure, but if that's the case he won't miss more than one game.

So he falls in the 6% that still caught Covid after being vaccinated then? Or a false positive? Let's hope for a false positive for the sake of Suns fans everywhere.

Saw national reporters saying the same thing, but not sure if they got that from CP, the Suns, their sources, local media, or their own butthole.

Kawhi might be out for the season.

If the Clips can get one of the next two, Suns would have home court and no Kawhi to deal with.

Youre welcome... Although im not sure the Jazz survive Game 6.

The reporting is accurate. CP3 is in protocol, but it doesnt mean he is out 10 days. Theoretically, he could be cleared right after Game 1. Not sure there is enough time to clear him for Game 1, but I think its a possibility.

The league is facing a lot of criticism for many top stars missing time in these playoffs. My gut tells me if there is a way for them them to clear CP3 early... they will.

Losing KL has transformed me into being pissed about the Clippers' bad luck and rooting for their delivery from the semifinals purgatory of their existence.

Rahm tested negative after 6 days but he still had to go the full two weeks. Not sure why as I thought the CDC said 7 days somewhere.

I am not even clear if CP3 popped a positive or was just around someone who was positive

Funny the Suns have to beat another LA team, although the Clippers will always be San Diego to me.

Go Suns.
The team and the fanbase deserve a Championship and of all the remaining teams Phoenix looks the strongest.

I haven't been following the nba since my Lakers are out. Is kawhi expected to play at all? If not, that is a huge break for the Suns. I always thought he was the only guy who could shut down Booker left in the West.
