The NBA’s bubble guest policy has basketball fans making so many jokes

This is amazing.

One would imagine that the NBA bubble can probably get a bit boring.

Spending three months in a single hotel room around a bunch of the same people every day is probably not always awesome — especially considering, you know, it’s because of a pandemic.

Players probably miss their loved ones a lot. Just look at how the Suns players reacted to seeing them through video on Tuesday. That’s why it’s so dope to see that the NBA will allow guests to enter the bubble soon.

That’s right. Players will be allowed to have guests after the first round of the playoffs. And not just one guest — up to four guests! Four! And children don’t count as long as they’re under 32 inches (which, ok, I guess?).

After a seven day quarantine, the guests will be allowed to hang on campus and even attempt games, according to a report from ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.

However, there is a caveat. There’s always a caveat.

There will be some notable exceptions. Only family and “established long standing personal friends” will be able to come. Wait, long standing personal friends? What does that mean?

Don’t worry. Woj got us.

I’m SURE you can read in to what that means. Of course, NBA fans came with the jokes. So many jokes. Especially those of the “longstanding personal friend” variety.

Of course, there were jokes about child height, too. Which, by the way, seem totally relevant seeing as though these are whole NBA players we’re talking about.

The NBA bubble, y’all. It’s the gift that doesn’t stop giving. Yes, this is certainly a lot. But as Woj said:

I really wanted to use that tweet.
