    Well I was going to watch but really can’t get excited to see the RG Vipers playing the Thunder.

    McLemore was also listed on yesterday’s NBA 5:30 p.m. EST injury report as OUT - not with the team - self isolating. I highly doubt it takes nearly 20 hours for reports to start circulating that other Rockets are in jeopardy of missing the game due to contract tracing.

    Nobody knows for certain but reinfection is incredibly rare. No excuse though.

    Ben McClemore is already in self-isolation. That would definitely trigger contact tracing protocol. Could be nothing to do with Harden, but rather whatever happened to Mac

    So far, tonight’s rotation:

    Brown
    Gordon / Thomas
    House / Nwaba
    Tucker / Tate
    Wood / Caboclo

    this drastically reduces the probability of Cousin/Wall re-injury from happening , Thank you Harden

    Never ever would have thought he would let this effect actual games. Extremely bummed. Let's go EGO :(

    It isn't spin, it is fact.

    The Houston Rockets organization in since Fertitta has taken over the team had their GM leave money on the table to leave. The head coach went public and said he wanted nothing to do with the organization....... the Rockets three best players from last year all are unhappy and two of them have demanded trades and the third has said he will play but doesn't feel appreciated.

    The Rockets right now are an absolute dumpster fire..... they can turn it around hopefully, but the fall out is by far the worst in the NBA over the last year.

    So Ben did test positive then. Wouldn't it be funny if Harden actually ends up playing tonight.

    It is very unlikely. The odds of this are less than 1 in a million based on the data I have seen.
