If your team sweep and the next opponent goes to game 7, what’s stopping most players from going home a day or two

1. You wouldn't necessarily know your opponent is going to go 7 games. 1/8 and 4/5, and 2/7 and 3/6 play on the same day so at best if you sweep, your opponents series is 2-2 and going 6.

2. The league is only allowing "excused absences". I don't think "We swept our opponent so I want to chill at home for a little bit" is excused when dude's are missing weddings, funerals, etc. in order to maintain the integrity of the bubble.

3. The Bubble has 0 positive tests. Why put potentially expose yourself and teammates to the virus just because you're homesick? So is the next man.
 
This is why the media sucks. Shaq said "TJ Warren needs to add 5-6 points to his regular season average in the playoffs for the Pacers to win. Do you think he can score 36,37 PPG Chuck?"

He averaged 19PPG through 51 games from Nov-March but we're holding him accountable to his 6-game output in the bubble? :lol:

It worse with Embiid. 26-14 isn’t enough. Need to double that output big fella.

instead of saying "TJ Warren needs to average 36/37 PPG" and "Embiid needs 52/28", how difficult is it to say "The Pacers and Sixers aren't going to advance past the first round but they might stretch it to 6"?
