Stephen A. Smith is back with another classic rant.
When the NBA resumes its season inside the Disney bubble in July, players will be deprived of their wives and girlfriends for about a month until the end of the first round of the playoffs.
Via ESPN
Will guests be allowed on campus?
Yes. Once the first round of playoffs are over, each of the eight remaining teams will be allowed to reserve between 15 and 17 hotel rooms for guest players. The number of rooms allocated to teams will be equal to the number of players they have on campus. Players will pay for their guests’ rooms.
To be allowed to enter campus, guests will need to self-quarantine for one week, then quarantine and be tested at least every two days for three days in the indoor market or outside the NBA campus in Orlando. Anyone who tests positive during this period will not be allowed to enter the NBA campus.
Upon entering the bubble, guests will be quarantined and tested daily for four days. Anyone who tests positive during this period must isolate themselves in accommodation designated by the league on campus.
In Tuesday’s edition of ESPN’s First Take, Stephen A. Smith thinks players won’t be able to last a month without sex. Smith launched a hilarious rant about players who sneaked out of the bubble to participate in “recreational activities” that put everyone on the extremely uncomfortable “First Take” board.

Do we really think that “recreational activities” are what these guys are used to going to be compromised for three months? I mean, someone has to say it. Do you really think people will do without their wives or their wives?
The problem is that you are in Orlando and during the first month, you must be alone … I say that three weeks are difficult.
I tell you that they are going to violate the bubble, you can reserve it.
Stephen A. defended his rant on Twitter.
Don’t confuse the problem. I said: the players with their wives; single players with their girlfriends. You can’t tell players that they can’t bring ANYONE – basically go single for a month – and think there won’t be any infractions. It doesn’t happen. THAT IS WHAT I AM SAYING. Nothing more. https://t.co/oeyqUPxrjV
