    LOL, have you seen my posting history? And do you know what state we live in, and which owner supports Trump? It's very likely they take Covid more seriously in LA than they do in Houston, especially with who owns the Rockets.

    It's not about that, it's about the same crappy garbage ownership practices we've had to turn people who are valuable in our organization away. It's about the process not the results.

    IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW MANY ACTUAL CASES THERE ARE.

    The protocols are what matters.

    You can get overly political all you want. That’s on you.
    Bottom line is LA has double the amount of cases that Houston does. Period.
    So they can take whatever precautions they want, it’s not helping them.
    Second, NBA set Covid policies and guidelines, not the Rockets. So Westbrook shouldn’t blame them.

    It does matter when you are trying to blame an organization that did nothing except follow the league mandates.
    If he wants to say it’s Houston or Texas or Conservatives fault he caught Covid, he’s stupid. And if you believe that, you are too.
    The numbers show he probably caught it while in LA.

    It's not a political issue, you are right BUT GUESS WHICH SIDE MADE IT ONE.

    Yes but LA as a whole is more dense population wise than Houston. Which is what matters, go check the numbers.

    That's not true. Precautions help, it's why the U.S has so many cases, because a lot of people werent taking covid as seriously.

    Lol and like I said doing the bare minimum is not something you should be proud of.

    Dude, look at the numbers. I’ve already posted them. LA county is twice the size as Harris county in land size. Population density has nothing to do with it.

    Blaming a place that has lax regulations isnt illogical.
    He didnt say that. But tbf...which side do you think takes masks less seriously???
    The numbers dont actually show that but okay.

    And Rockets did the same as every other team. If Westbrook was mad at the NBA that would be one thing.
    He also had every opportunity to not play and he still chose to.
    He also chose to protest and gather in large groups prior as well. Must not have been that scared.

    I would think betting Nets is literally burning money. There's no trade to be made there this year. That same collection of trash will be there next offseason.


    1. Rockets.
    2. 76ers

    Those are the only real options I see. Miami for Herro, Robinson and picks would be a disaster. Herro might be the most overrated player in the NBA now. Let Miami fall to a 7/8 seed and beg us to take Herro and Bam next offseason. They were a fluke.

    These betting odds are kind of useless because it's all based on the market. The only team that controls where Harden plays on March 21, 2021 is the Houston Rockets.

    And do you know what population density is?
    LA county is literally twice the size of Harris County.
    So if anything Harris county is more densely populated.
    Truth is, both areas don’t have mass transit and are widely spread out.

    Not about that.
    There is not much evidence the protests led to more spreading of the disease.

    Whatever man. I really don’t care. I’m not going to get in political talks with you.
    Defend Westbrook’s stupidity all you want.

    The actual facts say you and him are wrong

    They in fact have almost identical population densities.

    More than 100 is a big difference,
