I'm a little confused by what's going on right now with the team's illnesses.

This feels a little like Rosa's tanking. This upcoming draft isn't worth tanking.

We need a healthy team to stand a chance of splitting with Utah.

What's taking Napier so long? what's up with Wiggins now listed with an illness? Knee soreness for Okogie?

It could very easily be a bad case of the flu that would explain the illnesses. My last year in college I got Influenza and the Doctor wouldn't let me go to school for 2 weeks which was a bit of a relief because it was February and I was already struggling through a bigger than usual class load and trying to finish my research project. It also sucked because it was harder to keep up with a lot of the classes not being able to You know actually attend the class.

My knees get sore watching Okogie play. Lol it doesn't surprise me he might be sore the way he plays.

Maybe they are tanking. Seems a bit early for that. What if they made the playoffs and Wiggins and Towns are all-star level players? Maybe they go on a run win a series because someone gets hurt and then some player demands a trade here? Soft tanking before 20 games have happened when you are over .500 seems unlikely.

Hamstrings are really tricky. Ask Adam Thielen.

Probably nothing... hopefully nothing... but it's something to keep an eye on...



[Note: I've ranted about it before... I really hate NBA tanking. It's an affront to the fans who are already marginalized too much.]

The Wiggins thing is very confusing. Didn't he play after the death in his family? Most players go with the "he/she would have wanted me to play" mantra.

He did. He found out after the warriors game. And then dominated the spurs matchup.

I'm not going to judge anyone on how they grieve. And he might be legit sick

My family is sick right now, I think something is just going around and they go city to city exposed to a high level of germs most likely. I'd think more bad luck than alarming.

They should mandate the flu shot. Forced vaccinations.

Haven't had the flu in 25 years. And never had a shot.

We don't really know the extent of the potential harmful effects of it. I completely disagree.

I wasnt looking for a debate, but we actually know alot about vaccine safety. I was being silly, but i hope you were too.
