    With the refs last 2 games I'm honestly starting to believe the NBA are trying to back the Lakers.

    It took you until the last two games to realize that?

    The timeline and actions by the NBA indicate this didn't happen.
    1. woman was stopped early hours tuesday morning
    2. nba implements quarantine of whole team. which i presume means they had them stay in their rooms while contact tracing protocols executed. this likely happened before they woke up, as players sleep in on game days, for their late work scedule
    3. contact tracing involved interviews, video and key card access to rooms
    4. all players could be cleared by contact tracing evidence, except House and Tyson
    I'm sure the NBA is completely confident the morning quarantine and contact-tracing investigation cleared the team prior to any of them gathering later in the morning.

    I'm at least sure enough to say you're careless by assuming the Rockets gathered for workout, film study after security stopped the intruder in the early morning hours.

    This is such crap. How can they keep him out without knowing for 100% certain that he violated the rules?

    Well we’ve won our last 5 playoffs games with James Capers being one of the refs so that’s some good news *knocks on wood*

    Series tied 2-2

    "Investigation is still on-going"

    Lakers up 3-1

    "Not enough evidence to move forward, all charges dropped"

    Lebron runs the NBA. Nobody should think otherwise.

    Because the NBA would rather dictate who wins playoff series for TV revenue purposes than let the teams on the court decide the outcome themselves. It’s same reason the Rockets dealt with atrocious officiating in games 6 and 7 of the 2018 Western Conference Finals against the Warriors along with the referees missing three obvious fouls by Klay Thompson on Harden’s step-back three in game one of their series last year. Go ask the Kings if the league rigged the fourth quarter of game 6 of the 2002 Western Conference Finals so the Lakers wouldn’t be eliminated. Why was it that any team playing in The Forum or Staples Center against the Shaq and Kobe Lakers always was playing 5 on 8? Again, because the league wanted the Lakers to win.

    Yep. LeBron might as well be on Adam Silver’s executive committee. Don’t forget about all the tampering and strings he pulled to force the Pelicans to trade Davis to the Lakers. His friend, Rich Paul, should not be allowed to represent NBA players until LeBron retires and is no longer employed by an NBA franchise. It’s an obvious conflict of interest, but the league just ignores it.

    Because he quit on his team, then traded all his teammates away.

    Where were you????
