    Didn't Harden test negative 6x straight? If everyone tests negative before the game can't they all play?

    Harden just admitted it in a recent post by saying it wasn't a strip club as if the issue was whether it was a strip club or not.

    I think that deal is out the window. We will end up with Thybulle and Maxey only (plus I guess Harris for salary fillers) lol. I'm sick to my stomach over this whole issue.

    I hope that's the case. But they'll still punish Harden for breaking protocol as you have to enforce these things for players to actually listen.

    I hope the rest of the team isn't punished for this. The rest of the team deserves a test before the game rather than not being able to play outright.

    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...

    This is what happens when you go from hanging with a real one like Nipsey to a goofy named Lil Baby.

    Not nec around this situation but the only way the league is going to get compliance in the long run is to make teams play with what they have and/or forfeit games when they can't field a team.

    I seriously hope they come down hard on Harden, not because I'm upset at him, but because the league needs to grow a ****ing pair and make sure that the star players understand that they don't get to run the show during a pandemic.

    Rockets don't have their own pick. Tanking gets them nothing this season.
