I think Skip is way to savvy to fall for something like this. He knew it was fake. I think he just wanted to put that out there for some sick twisted reason. All you have to do is say something these days and half of the viewing public will believe it. He knows what he is doing. Skip isn’t this dumb.
The key to spotting a fake report is anyone linking farting and pink eye. Otherwise, everything seemed legit at first.
Just goes to show how biased Skip Bayless and the rest of the media is against the Rockets. They are so eager to report anything that supports their gloom & doom narrative about the Rockets, they don't even fact check what they read online. He wouldn't have been so quick to believe this if it were the Spurs. I bet we don't even see Skip come back and issue a retraction.
