    Yeah, this guy plays defense at half speed and less than half effort, not to mention he doesn't pass the damn ball... he's looking like a great scorer but not a great one, not even close.

    Why do you think? Looks pretty simple to me.
    He broke the rules, he’s out. And I’ll be honest, I can’t believe they have been down there as long as they have and this is the first thing we’ve heard about...... besides Lou Will heading to the strip club.

    Harden = 1/7 shooting
    Westbrook = 3/7 shooting

    Westbrook is trash. Rooting for the Rockets is not fun. They need to fire Morey and DAntoni and trade Westbrook and Harden. This system will not ever work. Start. Over.

    I thought Houston would make it interesting, but evidently not. Should have kept Capela...Harden to Capela was solid stuff.

    did you read what the investigation said? So much gray area and lack of info.

    https://theathletic.com/2057394/202...as-protocol-investigation-of-danuel-house-jr/


    A woman entered the Rockets’ team hotel on Monday night, passing multiple security checkpoints before being flagged for her entry, sources said. She exited the hotel in the early hours of Tuesday morning, and the league cited early data points that implicated two members of the Rockets, House and Tyson Chandler, sources said. When the woman was questioned by NBA security, she did not implicate House’s name and it is uncertain whether she remains on campus, sources said. She claimed to have contact with Chandler and another player, not named House, according to sources.

    Those sources said there appears to be no video connecting House and the woman; only the flagging of her entering and leaving the hotel, and the possibility of a door opening and closing to match those timelines. The NBA has informed involved parties that it has circumstantial evidence implicating House.

    House has vehemently denied to the league that he engaged in any improper contact with the staffer.



    They haven't fully completed the investigation, have only circumstantial evidence, and House disagreeing with it. And why is Chandler not quarantined or the other Rocket player, not named? But they've doled out the punishment already?

    She was a nurse, a "Covid testing official," so she had the pass (magnetic card) to enter. No one had to let her in. Maybe she wanted to check out the boys in her off-hours. Then whomever she flirted with got blamed.
