    Ben mclemore was going to miss tonight's game bc of covid and even more before all of this so it has just as much chance its related to him as harden

    I should have known better than to start getting excited about the Rockets’ tip-off.

    Harden had Covid in July. Doubt he has it now.

    Rockets guard Ben McLemore will be out for at least the Rockets season opener Wednesday when he is required to be “self-isolating” under the NBA’s COVID-19 health and safety protocols.

    A player “self-isolating” did not necessarily return a positive test, but has been required to quarantine.

    The NBA requires a player self-isolate if “he either (1) returned a positive or inconclusive coronavirus test result and has not yet been fully cleared to resume basketball activities, or (2) is currently subject to a COVID-19 related quarantine (e.g., has not tested positive for the coronavirus but has been directed by his team and/or the NBA to quarantine pursuant to the Health and Safety Protocols for the 2020-21 NBA Season.”

    At least this might force Tilman to embrace the tank which is what we should do, losing against a tanking rival in OKC is a good start...

    Did Ben McLemore return a positive test?

    Yup, I do not think we can field a team at this point. So what is the NBA going to do? Postpone the game or just have the Rockets forfeit?

    This might be the best sabotage job I’ve ever seen in sports.. clearly he did this on purpose to push his chips in the middle of the table. I thought the video was old but he basically admitted going to a party on his IG.
    Wow

    I don't know who did what or who to blame. But it's time to just send James home, play without him. I would really consider trading him to the knicks...give me RJ Barrett and whatever young guys they have. Plus every pick (no protections) and pick swaps available. The Knicks will still suck and we can hopefully get some good players over the next century years worth of picks.

    All jokes aside this has to be about McLemore right? I thought you can only contact trace when someone actually tested positive for Covid.

    Harden likely will not test positive again because he had it before. McLemore is currently qurantining

    Remember OKC can swap picks with us in the 2021 draft. The swap is only 1-4 protected for us. That's the big dilemma in this whole scenario. And I don't think we are going to be even close to the worse teams in the league, even if Harden is suspended the entire season.

    You mean the guys who like winning? Yea we are here. I'm sorry we didnt want to be hot trash when Harden gets traded(because this organization will be that). People havent been excusing his actions. And its not our fault a deal hasnt been done yet. We just had hope that maybe our best player might not pull stupid crap repeatedly.

    This is why I hate "I told you so people."

    I think this a play by Harden (and Morey) to force his way to Philly. Harden for Simmons is a horrible trade, but they're the only ones that may offer anything after Harden’s latest incidents
