    That’s gatekeeping. As long as someone supports the rockets everything else is fair game.

    An interesting experiment would be to see end of next season. Between the top four prospects, who misses more games. Chet or the field.

    Paolo, Chet, Jabari, and Ivey. Total missed games due to injury. I'm not a betting person, but if I do bet, it's definitely the field.

    TBH, I'm not. I mentioned that earlier on about my worry of Chet's frame. His fans immediately argued that he had been banging down low and had never been seriously injured.

    Well, I am still worry. Those guys seems to assume that banging in college games has the same impact as banging in the NBA. And they also seem to assume that having not been injured so far is a good evidence to predict that he wouldn't in the future.

    I'll still be excited if we draft the kid. But I'll be super worried every season.

    I agree with this but Injury prone players always find a way to miss games. Just naturally unlucky.

    Doc keeping Embiid in the game when they were up 30 was just dumb

    Breaking: Miami star player Butler is injured and will be out of the playoffs. Harden is now requesting to join the Bucks.

    I'm here for it though. He's been at this for years now if anyone gets to gloat about this, it is him.

    Bro what are you talking about lmao, the man has been making brain dead takes for years. Now he's trying to make brain dead takes about a James Harden who has declined. I dont know what kind of vindication any of this gives him.

    He's also in here more than he is in the GARM LOL.

    saying that you can’t win with Harden is a brain dead take? I’ve been right for 6 years and counting. Meanwhile you keep holding on to hope year after year and bring up irrelevant shiit like Trumpers and Anti vax BS that has nothing to do with basketball whenever Harden fails. Foh!

    Something is wrong with Doc, man.. I have never seen a coach put his foot in his mouth so many times. Has he always been this way? Harden going to run Doc out of there.

    What about his thumb injury?

    I understand that luck plays a big part in injuries, which no one can control. It's actually a combination of luck, body type, playing style, and physical training (including working out and diet). Luck is probably the biggest. But if you were a betting person, would you bet on someone who always ran out of luck? Embiid missed two seasons right of the bat. And he's never played more than 70 games in a season.
