    Do not ever underestimate the NBA's dedication to glamour markets. Ever.

    Refusing to play is the right move if the league doesn’t come to a decision, but cover it all in COVID language.

    “Given the ongoing investigation, and with an abundance of caution, we will be quarantining the team until the league completes this process. We will have no further comment at this time.”

    Nothing to attack. No room for the league to respond. If teams can “boycott” for political reasons, then the league will have nothing to stand on if a team frames this as player protection.

    in fact take it a step farther...tell the league it will be necessary to quarantine the entire team for the full 10 days. #rest

    yeah it doesn’t make any sense. If the COVID worker also is confined to the bubble or restricted living quarters etc why is this a violation of COVID policy? There is no mention of him violating fraternization or sexual conduct policy. Furthermore there is no evidence that he had engaged in any sexual activity with this woman. A lot of gaps and questions unanswered. The story doesn’t sound right. Free House!

    The Rockets are always so outspoken about everything, maybe they are raising hell. We will get to see how much the league hates the Rockets based on how many times they swallow their whistles tonight.

    exactly.

    MDA is old and in risky age.
    Rockets should take ALLLL precautions to make sure he isn't put at risk.

    Refuse to play and endanger the life of our coach until the NBA can reassure that the process hasn't been copromised.

    By the mere fact Covid tester was testing players, she passes the protocols (health wise) for being there, at least for that day.

    If there's no conclusive evidence that there was a conjugal visit; then you can't say he's guilty.

    If only the door swung open, so what? the germs didn't pass right? She was healthy enough to test other players.

    Based on just the evidence released, NBA don't have enough.

    What I don't understand is: why suspend him while the investigation is ongoing? This doesn't make any sense. You suspend someone after there are concrete findings, and a judgment.

    There is a very easy explanation for this, actually. Just think for a second...

    Outspoken? Because Morey tweeted something or because we send tapes? When it comes to real action and calling out the league, we’re just as quiet as the next.

    Scapegoat. The Lakers have to win it all for Kobe. NBA will extend playoffs and try to recoup all the lossed money.
