    Lebron is set for life. He will continue to earn even if he doesn’t play. He’s really screwing a lot of other players if he’s the ring leader

    I would believe your sentiment more if this was your final post on a message board for hardcore Rockets fans. Maybe I'm wrong.

    Fair enough LOL, there's all kinds of people in the world I guess.

    It reminds me of a Dave Chappelle bit about MTV's coverage of 9-11, ridiculing how they were asking Ja Rule what he thought about it....perhaps someone should have told Mr. Chappelle about Ja's millions of followers.

    Celebrity worship is just weird to me, always will be.

    Pretty much this.

    Easy solution? If you don't want to play, then feel free to leave the bubble. If your team then loses because of 1) not enough players to field a team, 2) sucking due to talent gap, then that's the choice you make.

    The players that want / need to play should stay and play.

    ...says the person who's taking the time to write a sentence in a forum for a particular team playing America's 3rd favorite sport. Do you know how ridiculous you seem?

    lolol

    the next cba( if the owners rip up this one) will absolutely hurt the earning potential of the next wave of stars and role players. the donovan mitchells, the luka doncics, and even the high level prospects in college like cade cunningham

    Feels like 2020 everything is coming together. I live in SF now and there's no escaping the fires. There's no ignoring climate change. An my escape has always been the Rockets.. since 1989. Got on clutchcity.com way back in 1994. But now -- sports can't escape the outside world. We all have to choose.

    This is such a weird take. Your angle is "nobody cares" but apparently you care enough to voice that opinion on a niche basketball forum...(?)

    To the people in Portland suburbs who have been accosted by Antifa & BLM in the streets yelling to them yelling to homeowners that they own their MFing houses in
    Your ass wouldn't be going anywhere anyhow.When you can travel feel free to go to brighter lights....but you'll gamble missing your redistribution of wealth. Speaking of incompetence, Comrade Cuomo killing seniors in huge numbers...he thought it was a mistake to lock the country down...meanwhile, Pelosi is giving an ice cream tour of her home and calling the cops on some people who came over her compound wall. And Joe Biden run the country...hell, he's already dead, he's just too sorry to lie down.What would you have done different on COVID ? Boy,this should be good. You know if Trump found a cure for cancer, some dumb asses would say he robbed the Grimm reaper. If your guy can't get it done in 47 years, he can't get it done. BTW, I'm not stuck with anything....and we'll see if a majority disagrees with me. I'm not sure I'll be able to sleep tonight worrying about who may disagree or abhor me.

    Let’s start with an actual quarantine and forcing everyone to wear masks? Maybe listening to the Dr. Fauci who is the lead infectious disease doctor in the world with all sorts of acolades instead of doing everything they could to contradict him. A lot different could have been done to handle Covid. Instead we let each state kinda do whatever they wanted.

    My daughter lives in downtown Portland, just a few blocks from the Justice Center—a 1-block area where the bulk of the protests have been taking place. She walks to work day and night in downtown without fear of anything happening. The size of the protests and have been much overblown by the media, and the size of the military and police response has been underreported.

    Regardless of what you've heard, Portland isn't a war zone. I was there 2 weeks ago and the most dangerous thing I encountered in a full weekend was graffiti. If you're media source is telling you otherwise, you should question their motives.
