    People need to realize that every team was better this year and will only get better going forward. The Rockets best chance for a championship was last year and this year. They are one of the oldest teams in the NBA and not that athletic. They have no cap room and no drafts or money to buy draft picks (thanks Tilman). You can’t keep saying next year. Their window is almost shut. That’s why you don’t waste opportunities when it’s right in front of you.

    How many points does he have to score to not be a choker? 50 a night? :D

    Better team won.

    We need some small improvements to the roster.

    Rockets need 4 All Stars for sure.

    It's not about scoring but play winning basketball...learn to handle pressure time, don't miss 5 free throws in a crucial game when your legacy is at risk, stop dribbling the ball for 22 sec., involve others, play defense.

    He's referring to ending morey ball. I think he's looking at this season as a whole and frustrated that he had teams know how to guard him so easily because of the limited shot profile.

    So when he's talking about working on "it" this summer, he's referring to a mid-range game.

    CP3 needs a Renaissance - adopt a new go-to move/shot. His snake thru the lane dribble pull-up looks tiring.

    Dude couldn’t beat a Spurs team without Kawhi and a Warriors team with no KD. He had the best supporting cast (IMO) out of any of his other years. There’s no amount of help or plan outside of KD or Lebron coming and making Harden the #2 guy that’s gonna get us over the hump. Neither of those 2 are coming.

    We have 400 + Million tied up between Harden, CP3 and Capela. It was gonna be hard to make moves regardless but CP3 and Capela’s stock definitely took a hit. I love Jimmy Butler but he’s a long shot as well and he’s not gonna get us over the hump either.

    I think he’s ready to go to another team so he can be surrounded by better players.

    I wish.

    Not sure how we sell him on Houston.

    I mean it would make sense if they lose this round maybe, maybe he'd consider it. Maybe we can sell him on China marketability?

    I’m not watching another Rockets game until D’Antoni is fired.
