    You said the more information that comes out, the more of an idiot House looks.

    The most recent information from Shams says there’s nothing concrete in terms of evidence and he’s not mentioned by the woman herself.

    How does this make House look like an idiot?

    you either have evidence or you do not.

    How hard can it be?
    What time the woman entered the team's rooms area and what time his door opened?

    he isn't mentioned because the story doesn't add up. And someone is trying to save face. all of a sudden there's a 3rd unnamed person. gtfoh with this. there's a number of different stories being told here. House being completely innocent in this is not one of them. And why the decision again is taking so long.

    Not me, if its wrong its wrong. I'm a biased HST fan but I would call it what it is BUT you know what, it's NOT LA and I'd bet they'd find a way to clear the player and make him available to play.

    The problem I have with it is that they knew about what happened and still let the Lakers and Rockets play after House was possible exposed.

    If the league didn’t have evidence that he did it, then he should have played. If they wanted to be extra cautious just postpone the series.

    The league did neither, what they are doing doesn’t make a lot of sense. I don’t doubt House did it but the leagues response is hypocritical.

    What about the lax security? Is this something that has been going on a number of times in the bubble as some have reported.

    no.
    People are upset that the NBA's security only amounts to this much that anyone can stroll in and the league doesn't even know where she went.

    They are also upset because the game still went ahead even though according to the protocol it shoudn't have.
    House could have infected every Rockets player in practice.

    The NBA cares more about being the basketball version of the WWE than actually being a legitimate professional sports league. It’s pathetic. If the Clippers and Lakers make it to the Western Conference Finals because they were better than their opponents, that’s fair. But, sketchy officiating favoring certain teams (Warriors vs Rockets in 2018 and 2019; Lakers this series), and obvious fixing of games (2002 Lakers-Kings Game 6) is bullshit. TV revenue should have no bearing on which teams advance during the postseason.

    It’s also telling that the only commercial the NBA cares about running during the Rockets/Lakers series is one that features only LeBron. It’s not like there aren’t three former MVPs playing in this series.

    for me it's about the protocol that was broken. it's been understood from day 1 nobody enters players rooms but themselves

    A number of different stories may be told, but Shams is the most reputable (outside of Woj) and what he said doesn’t directly indicate any fault of House.

    The point I’m trying to make is its not what you think you know, but what you can prove.

    I’ll admit, it’s hard to have this much noise be directed at and think he isn’t involved in this somehow, but if the NBA has nothing concrete then they took a key player away from us in our most important game of the season.
