    Seeding really doesn't matter with no home court to play for... and with teams missing players, match up hunting is hard to do. Keep everyone healthy for 8 games is all I ask.

    this means he'll likely miss all the scrimmages, after quarantine once he returns

    I hope he doesn't take a dumb pill like Lou Williams and post a picture on social media partying at a strip club.

    He did that?

    I was joking the other day about NBA players leaving the bubble for these types of needs. Dudes get addicted to that ass.

    Some people cope at strip clubs?

    EDIT: Read about this, saw the post of his friend's passing, dude who posted the picture of him with Lou Williams said it's an old picture, but they're both wearing masks. Who knows.

    Austin looked ticked off when Harden was joking with him about answering questions with short answers.

    Hope that wasn’t a factor leading to the absence. I lived thru Vernon Maxwell walking away and
    Faried (last season).

    If Harden and Russ and EG are all 100%, Rivers should not see the court more than 5 minutes.

    Unless EG will suck as bad as he did most of this season.
