What Is Nba Bubble?
The Magical Ball at Disney World
The players will not be tested for recreational drugs while at Disney World. Marijuana is still illegal in Florida so players have been warned against using it.
The NBA Bubble
The bubble concept was viable because of the unique infrastructure presented by the Disney World Resort. It is large enough to hold all the NBA team and personnel, but also has security that makes it easy to isolated from the surrounding area. Disney World was not hosting guests during the COVID-19 epidemic so it was a logical deal for both sides.
If the team makes the playoffs, they can add people. If a team makes it past the first round, it can add two staff members and another pair if it makes the conference finals. The NBA and National Basketball Players Association later negotiated new terms that allow as many as four guests per player with exceptions for children in 17 hotel rooms.
Non- family guests who are not related to the player are not allowed in the bubble, and those with business relationships are not allowed. If they test negative for COVID-19 every day they are outside of the NBA bubble, they can leave the bubble and not be required to spend four days in a hospital. Each team has a chef who is open 24 hours a day.
Once players are able to have meals at some of the restaurants on the Disney campus, they will be able to order room service. The NBA has set up a "snitch line" so players can tell if someone breaks the rules of the NBA bubble and increase the risks for all involved. The discipline will range from a fine to a suspension.
The NBA season will start with eight games to determine seeding. The play-in tournament for the 8 seed in either conference will only be held if the 9 seed is less than four games behind. The No. 8 seed will be safe in the tournament.
Hachimura's legacy
Hachimura says that there is a lot of available to the players, something which has helped his team gel.
The First 48 Hours of the Game
The players were under strict sterilization in their hotel rooms for the first 48 hours. The players were tested for COVID-19 after the period was over and allowed to roam within approved areas of the Disney grounds. The players, coaches, and staff are tested daily. Hotel staff, NBA reporters, and others allowed to enter the bubble are subject to strict testing protocols and are not allowed to get close to the players.
The NBA playoffs: Who made the final?
The Wizards, Trail blazers, New Orleans Pelicans, Kings, Spurs, and Suns are the teams who made the NBA playoffs.
The Silver Legacy Project
Every team, player, coach and staffer would be isolated at a neutral location. The location would be used for games and players would live there and be isolated from the rest of the population until the games are over. Las Vegas has many hotels that can accommodate people who are needed for an NBA bubble, and it is where the NBA holds its annual Summer League.
Silver said that the first priority would be to assure daily testing of all players and staff for the coronaviruses so that there can be confidence in health and safety. Silver is not willing to take tests that could be used to get a basketball result for the sake of basketball until testing is widely available to healthcare workers and those at risk in the general population. Logistical problems are also a concern for those not associated with the NBA.
There would have to be people in hotels and restaurants. If those employees were able to leave the bubble, it would be a big problem. All of the employees would need to be accommodated within the bubble.
The Bobi & Tobi Show
The Bobi & Tobi Show is back in the bubble, but only for a while. NBA players were required to self-quarantine within the bubble for 48 hours before they could begin basketball operations and hang out with other players.
