He also explains how fear was used to manipulate players at the beginning of COVID to get them to comply with NBA COVID protocols. Next, Jonathan shares what it was really like to live in the NBA bubble in Orlando. He also reveals that NBA doctors told players early on that masks were ineffective at preventing COVID. Jonathan also explains why he decided to make the personal choice to not comply with the NBA vaccine mandate.
