Apparently a player on the Rockets (Danuel House) was scratched in game 3 and ruled out for game 4 because he had a woman back to his hotel room. That person is apparently involved with the COVID-19 testing process. That woman also had contact with Tyson Chandler and an as of yet unnamed third player.

Some rumors saying the third player is Harden and that House is 'taking one for the team'.

The roster turnover has been a huge problem. And like the article says, it will likely continue this season.
Brown kind of complained about it ....def challenging for a coach especially if you get pieces that don't fit. Not absolving Brown and his time had run its course especially since he didn't know how to institute some accountability but roster turnover did not help him. That's on the FO.

Yeah. I was fine moving on from Brown but it’s fair to say that he never really had the roster stability that he needed. Embiid, Simmons, Butler, Harris and JJ was a good starting 5 and the FO blew it up.

Not sure D'Antoni can be successful without a ball dominant elite shooter. Someone that fits the mold of a Stev Nash, James Harden, Steph Curry, Dame Lillard, Cj McCollum/Booker, KD, Irving, Doncic, Trae Young, Chris Paul, Leonard. None of them are on the Sixers.

Yeah I'm not too sure D'Antoni would be a good idea ....at least better than Liu tho..

Players like playing for him too...so....

I actually think D'Antoni is the best coach that is in the mix for the job. He would also bring an exciting brand of basketball to the Sixers. The problem is this though, he is a TERRIBLE fit for the current roster. If they were to hire him they have to trade Embiid and Horford, and build a team of shooters around Simmons. If they were to hire him and expect him to have success with this roster it would be an epic disaster. Even IF they found a taker for Horford but kept Embiid it wouldn't work.

So there is a 75 percent chance that the Lakers, a Jimmy Butler led Heat team, or a Jayson Tatum led Celtics team will win the NBA championship this year. Cool.
