Okay it is a bit of a stretch but the headline is a little more catchy with Swine thrown in.

According to the L.A. Times, Kobe Bryant missed practice Sunday because of a sore throat and is considered day to day, a team spokesman said. Knowing Bryant’s threshold for pain and discomfort, it would be surprising only if he didn’t play tonight in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals against Houston.

Then again if it really was Swine flu, he would not be even allowed in the building which is the only way the Rockets are going to win this series.
