There is a lot to this IMO, when was this appendicitis diagnosed, it should have been done while performing the other injuries procedures when he was out! Iโm not a 6er, but Iโm tired of Joel being in for injury reasons. That being said, my prayers to him for a speedy recovery

This big guy is out of his mind..Rockets will win 53 games, one more than last years 52, this is without Fred and Adams out. He actually doesn’t know what he is saying. Nuggets without Murray were swept by Suns. Jokic, everyone calls him the best player.. What did he do? It’s team basketball. KD is not Superman. ๐๐ Funny guy.. take any top teams and remove the center and PG. will they be same? Dumb take

Brooklyn looks good without Durant. Phoenix went to the finals without Durant. Houston was well on its way to be contenders without Durant. DURANT is a cancer.

Can we stop this notion that embiids injuries have all been bad luck fluke injuries??
Thats bs. The guy has been very heavy for someone that tall. And he always flops around on the floor. Im sure he had doctors and trainers tell him to drop weight. He never did

This dude is so dumb it drives me nuts. Our starting pg got injured. Steven Adams is out who stepped up huge for us last year in the post season. Donavon Mitchell? More like James Harden you dummy. James Harden has a label of being the biggest playoff choker of all time aside from maybe Chris Paul. Like man why is this dude on tv?
