    At the very least, if House's career as a Rocket doesn't work out he can always become a ...

    The inspector concludes that House and Chandler were practicing switching D in the hotel. :eek::D:po_O

    Nice, well that makes sense then. They're just practicing real-game situations. :).

    Greatest timing to come out (of the closet).

    What’s wrong with a testing official ? Aren’t they in the bubble ? I bet he is not the first to do this just the first to get caught.

    Nothing, there is nothing conceivably wrong in terms of COVID for letting someone who works inside the bubble and tests you to come into your hotel room. The NBA just needs a time span of a max equivalent of 5 games to make this same ruling. Ridiculous

    I don't hold it against House. Men want sex. However, for a guy who admittedly dropped the ball last year, how do you go out and do it again. He should be the last guy caught in this situation. It's why the mental breakdowns continue. There's no self awareness on this team.

    Sorry if I missed it, but any word with what’s going on with Chandler?

    Assuming it’s something unrelated to the House drama.

    Wasn't House pissed about his performance in last season's playoffs? And, here he is letting us down again. He's a key part of our rotation. We're a man down without him and that wears on the rest of the team. Whatever the reason he is out, it better be good.

    If this was a league contracted tester, in there for that purpose, against league rules, then the league will look awful and House shouldn’t be blamed.

    Game 3 should be replayed.

    I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure a player isn't allowed to have just anyone in his private room, despite it being a person already in the bubble.

    Stupid rules are still rules.

    Danuel House is an idiot for inviting her into his room with all the restrictions in place, but one of the NBA’s COVID-19 testing officials should know better, too. Plus, considering her position, she should be following best practices for preventing the spread of COVID-19, anyway. Otherwise, the NBA would have fired her.

    In conclusion, House made a stupid decision, but the NBA better clear him before tonight’s game 4. If not, they can go to hell.

    Agreed, but now that we know it was a league COVID-19 testing official, that changes the dynamic. House was still dumb for inviting her to his room, but she knew better than to accept the overture, too. Also, I would hope one of the leagues COVID-19 testing officials would be following all safety guidelines to not contract the virus. Otherwise, she should be fired.

    Either way, House should be cleared before tonight’s game. Will he? Who knows.

    Every NBA player knew the rules before they agreed to play in a bubble. Those rules included no close personal contact with non-family members, or teammates/coaches/trainers, etc. If House didn’t like those rules, he could have opted out from the beginning. Therefore, House absolutely deserves blame for choosing to break league-wide safety protocol in the middle of a Rockets’ playoff series.

    bro you can’t really expect a grown man to go months without sex. NBA has to have seen this coming. He didn’t sneak someone in from outside. They are around these women everyday you know how crazy you go not being able to get some when I bet those thot ass nurses are throwing it at them? Dude should not have to miss multiple playoff games. I could see if it’s some random he tried to sneak in but that’s pvssy that’s already walking around inside. He ain’t the only one I bet the lakers snitched.

    doesn't really matter how relatable it is. What rich athlete wouldn't try to get laid as much as possible? But the league has to maintain safety during this unprecedented time. Even if they both test negative and the players aren't tripping, the league has to maintain an image to the rest of the country that they're not potentially exposing their players to Covid.
