I really dont see how the NBA is going to truly enforce this, but its nice to see they believe "rest" is a problem.

I think it needs to be a collective effort (from players, coaches, team owners, and NBA) to play the nationally televised game and if you have to take a game off - game one of the other games off. It's really not that difficult.

Also, It is a condensed season and for 4 teams - offseason has been relatively short. And to be honest - for 9 other teams - it has been an extra long offseason and they also have to make sure to take necessary precautions and avoid going all out too soon after such a long layoff.

Yep. Harden isn't there and PJ clearly is unhappy. You can tell from his media interviews. Going to be a bumpy ride in HTown.

Everything you just said in the 2nd paragraph reiterates why I believe this is going to be impossible to police.

The NBA gave all of its team 30 million holy f**k. They took out a 900 million dollar loan

Just saying - teams have to tell their own players that they can miss the game before or after the nationally televised game. Don't think it's hard to reach such an understanding. Players stand to lose more money this season as they have had to put more money in the escrow.

Anyone who knows anything about bball knows how good harden is at scoring and that he is the worst 'leader' in the association. Or he isn't even considered a leader but I guess best player on his team with the least amount of leadership skills? I don't know how to exactly say it but he f**king blows lol.

I want to see him get traded to Nets. I want to see if Durant, Kyrie, and Harden will work. That much talent on 1 team usually works but it can just as easily implode bc none of them are leaders.

Hell no it wouldn't work. And Durant is somewhat of a good leader. But it has very little to do with that. Their game doesnt mesh, and besides Durant, none of those guys play defense. And Durant only played defense bc of GS culture. Idk what Durant we will see.

You have 3 iso players and thats never going to work. Plus, Nets dont have a lot to give up. Philly makes the most sense.

Harden has actually been a plus defender since that viral video from 2014-15. Kyrie is terrible though. I agree I can't see that fitting in Brooklyn but who the heck knows. I don't see why Harden would want to play with Kyrie it's weird. But I also couldn't figure out why KD want to play with Kyrie.
