    Simmons is really terrified to shoot I cant comprehend this. Allllllll the resources at his disposal and no one has tried to fix his shot yet?


    Hell Lonzo ball fixed his shot in a season

    The virus is everywhere. It wouldn't be fair to penalize teams when players/staff inevitably get infected. Also, contact tracing doesn't always determine how someone contracted the virus. A player could play basketball and go home to his family every night only to get infected by his wife who went to the grocery store.

    simmons has no chance of ever being a respectable shooter. his form, touch, fluidity are all trash. i want no part of that contract, he will never be able to carry a team as the #1 option

    ...but it's not in fact "everywhere." And people won't inevitably get it. If people are guaranteed to get it, there'd be no reason to wear masks and enforce social distancing.

    Am I saying that people who follow every rule and do everything right, won't ever get it? No. But to date, barely any players in the NBA have tested positive. And these players have the means (read: money) to take every precaution to not come into contact with the virus.

    It's absolutely fair to penalize a player like Harden or other Rockets players because they didn't follow the rules. If there's evidence that they followed every rule and still contracted the virus, then sure, it's not fair to penalize them. After all, they're not immune (yet). But these are adult decisions and they deserve scrutiny.

    Tyler Herro shooting, dribbling skills, play making will fit in this Offense.

    Tyler won me over watching his highlights.

    I was shocked, he is like a Street baller version of Jason Williams with his dribbling, Old School Pistol Pete Maravich with his no look passing, Shoots like Klay Thompson. Only 20 years old.

    Tyler Herro is the best offer, for this Offense the Rockets have.

    First time I saw this. I laugh and cried at the same time. Pretty much sums up our situation these days, punctuated by season opener... postponement! :D:(

    I’m dying laughing because we already were and yet somehow we STILL managed to become a little more of a joke.

    ...the start to this season has been either a terrible omen or an incredible start to a story of redemption- there is no middle ground really.

    Man Westbrook got a triple double! Give him the MVP!! So glad he led the Wizards to a win. Oh wait.. nevermind.

    He took 22 shots and only scored 21 points....

    If only he had shot the ball 56 times, he could have had a 50 point triple double!

    half joking but likely half serious answer.

    Because the second you compare a white player to a non-white player - you, your family, the player, and your future kids will all be classified as racist.
