Shams: Danuel House BANNED from the NBA bubble. Had female guest for hours

[TdotRap4Lyfe]

Hours!?!? And here I thought 30 minutes are more than enough.

He had to be thorough when taking the test.

[Southpaw]

According to The Launch Pad Podcast posted 13 hours ago (I don't have more recent news - I haven't read any of the thread):

1. The only evidence the league had, by their own admission, was that House's door opened at the same time the woman entered the hotel. That's it. The NBA said it may have happened.

2. A Twitter personality ("@cuffslegend," I think) who has consistently broken stories related to LeBron and is believed to have a personal relationship with LeBron posted a tweet saying something like, "lol, Daniel [sic] House should know better than that" around the same time that the Rockets' coaches were informed by the league that House would be unavailable for Game 3 - several hours before any journalist broke the story. The implication is that LeBron knew before the Rockets' coaches did.

3. The NBA said that several times throughout the bubble, people have called the "snitch hotline" (which is how the NBA learned of the alleged incident) on the Rockets, but the NBA repeatedly believed the allegations to be unfounded. This was the first time the NBA took action on an allegation, in spite of the tenuous, circumstantial evidence.

4. The NBA has done an atrocious job of releasing information about the story, especially in light of the fact that House has a wife and children who may be in school.

None of this is from me. It's just what I'm hearing on this podcast. I don't know how or if the story has changed since the pod was posted, but it certainly seems like a bad look all around for the league.

Here's the link if anyone wants to listen: https://player.fm/series/the-launch-pad-podcast-a-houston-rockets-basketball-podcast/lack-of-house-means-lack-of-wins-rockets-game-4-vs-lakers-and-series-discussion

I seriously doubt the league would take action without substantial evidence and the bolded part backs it up imo. I'm sure they've gotten multiple reports on the "snitch hotline" and for them to take action on this one means they've found sufficient reason to do so. The conspiracy theory that this was done to ensure the Lakers would advance or something like that is crazy to me bacause the Lakers were winning their series with or without House on the Rockets lineup.

According to the podcast, I repeat, the league stated specifically that their only evidence was that House opened his door near the time the woman was known to enter the hotel. This is backed up by the league's assertion that it was taking precautionary measures for the safety of everyone involved. This was their justification for such a harsh penalty based on such flimsy evidence.

Also, I never stated that anything was done to help the Lakers. I merely stated that LeBron was possibly aware of the punishment before the Rockets were, and well before any journalists were.

From what I've read, only the Rockets were staying at the said hotel and House's door was the only one that matched the entry time of the woman in question. To me that makes sense on why House was the one who's taking the punishment because it's either his really involved or he let another player use him room, which still makes him an accomplice.

I wasn't referring to you when I mentioned the Lakers bit, just that there are some conspiracy theories that states that this was done to weaken the Rockets, ensuring a Lakers win. That's wild because as I said, it was only the Rockets who were staying at the said hotel.

It's easy to criticize him but living in a bubble is tough

Yea, not like it's tough for the other 200+ people there right?

Like there not getting pampered in there too smh

[Jkam31]

Lol y’all overreacting his wife won’t file for divorce you can quote me on that

[Jkam31]

This guy got a whole ass family

Cheated on his wife and got kicked out bubble

Double whammy

I think most athletes cheat on their wives. The wives know what they are getting into. Imagine have 10/10 titties slapping you in the face all day how would any guy resist?

They’d resist on realgm and cheat in real life. Most regular joes cheating aren’t cheating with 10s hell I’ve seen legit 9’s and 10’s getting cheated

[Antinomy]

Want to have kids without having baby mama's. Actually want and desire the stability of marriage even though they might not live it out as well as they should. A guy like House was undrafted and has around $900K career earnings, he was not rich until recently, and still much less than other NBA players.

There is no stability in marriage. With a baby mama, you stand to lose money in child support. In marriage, you stand to lose money in child support, alimony, future earnings, your house, etc. Marriage at its core is relationship insurance for partner who makes less.

How old are you?

I’m 25. How old are you? I’ve seen dudes of all ages get screwed over in divorce or have been deceived by their wives/girlfriends. Even the ones that appear to be the most innocent. Marriage has never stopped anyone from doing anything. The “security” of it is an illusion.

[Jkam31]

He’s an NBA player—his wife is fully aware. She may not have the exact name or piece of ass, but she knows it’s happening. They all do.

Of course she knows —— Most of the wives are cheating too.

Can verify. I sleep with 2-4 NBA wives every day.

This is gold!

[Jkam31]

We are all human but thats a damn shame. Beautiful family. Hope they can work through it.

hope she gets half.

Why cause he cheated?

If she cheated would he get half

Thats exactly what he would get if she cheated.

It has to be on the list of dumbest decision ever for an NBA player. Probably doesn’t beat Artest jumping in the crowd, but it’s up there considering he took the risk to Screw the whole NBA + it wasn’t a spur of the moment thing.

It's much worse than Artest's. Bringing an unauthorized guest into bubble takes pre-meditation. There's video and security everywhere so the chances of getting caught are high. And if something bad were to happen he could have brought down the entire NBA season. Like you said, he was allowed to bring in his family at this point.

Artest went after someone who threw a beer on him. Not a good decision, but at least you can understand why he did it.

This is worse than Artest. Artest didn't start the drama; a fan did. In this case House was in a good situation and he squandered it

Maybe. It is potentially worst and Artest wasn't thinking much in the moment. But punching a fan has direct real consequences 100% of the time while what House did would have been catastrophic a small percentage of the time. You have to factor in those odds.

Not sure it's worth it to argue about dumb vs dumber though.

Some guys do have a moral code about lying and can understand the long term implications of hurting the one they love for instant gratification. Some guys could definitely resist. Not everyone is made up the same.

[WHITE_HOT_HEAT]

Pharmcat acting like house doesn’t have a perfectly attractive hand

Can you please stop with homosexual innuendos, its really not neccessary

Are you 12 or something? Why are you so touchy and super sensitive?

[Movics]

Hours!?!? And here I thought 30 minutes are more than enough.

She took the House covid test where the swab goes down one’s throat

[Harry Garris]

What makes you say that?

This whole thread is full of some bitter dudes trying to convince themselves women are just as much the problem

How are they not? How are men “the problem,” whatever that means in this context?

Men aren't "the problem" and women arent "the problem". The problem is cheating and who's to blame for it completely depends on the individual. I dont know if you're one of them but multiple people in this thread made the accusation that NBA wives cheat just as much as their husbands. We dont know that. Assuming someone's guilt without any form of proof at all is wrong, in my opinion.

[Harry Garris]

I think what is funny is how people assume wives are so innocent...I'm sure that pass goes both ways. What do you think she is doing while he is in the bubble. Majority of women can get sex just as easy NBA players...probly easier......

Yeah that definitely isnt true bud. Not someone they'd actually want to sleep with.

Have you seen women’s Tinder accounts? A slightly above average woman is like a celebrity and can choose between literally hundreds of men and I’m not exaggerating.

I dont agree with you that the majority of women would want to sleep around with some random guy who only wants them for sex and then is going to leave. This website is like 99% dudes though and probably all assume women are wired the exact same way we are. But they're not.

Its a dumb conspiracy theory to think a 7th man was set up

It’s not really about the sex, it’s about the validation & attention she wants to receive. Believe it or not, there are men that have sex with plenty of women & don’t have to do an ounce of courting or take them out on a single date. The woman willingly goes to him, especially if she feels like she has to win him over. Whether she is in a relationship or married matters very little.

The fact that I’ve had so many women who were married/in relationships attempt to hook up with up me really showed me a different outlook.

[stoo]

The problem is society teaches us to commit to one partner for sex when humans are obviously polygamists

[Jazz9]

God some people are actually trying to put this on LeBron

I think you need to listen to better podcast sources man.

NBA would have covered its ass for legal liability to high heavens before they hand out any discipline in such a case. If any of the punishment is based on circumstantial evidence alone, House, being a married man and a father of three, with an NBA career and earnings that will be effected by such an incident would have both personal and professional causes to sue the league.
