    I'm not one to point blame.

    Pj Tucker might not be ready to play.

    It makes sense for players and most of us try to live healthily.

    In the beginning we didn't know enough of what the virus could do to us so Better be Safe than Sorry.

    Shedding pounds didn't hurt.

    I want to make fun of the out of shape players when games are on TV again... but I am in no position to make fun of other people's quarantine weight gain. :(

    Most are in shape. Some are bald.

    What about the fans? Any of you guys returning from hiatus watching NBA a bit more out of shape?

    I probably put myself in this category. Would like to think it's because of local gyms closing, but it's really me being lazy. :D

    Why is Harden on the poll? Is this some legacy b.s. thought like him not EVER playing defense even though he's pretty good on D?

    Mike d'antoni is most likely to blame for poor player conditioning, James harden's late game struggles!

    Any rocket players respect coaching staff or a free agent coach with no contract?

    He is so overrated at this point in his career, just a name that can occasionally have a string of good games but his overall body of work is not worth of all this attention. Still decent on the post though. Oh well, not in our roster, someone else's problem.
