    no he doesn't. their contracts are identical but wb has an extra year over cp3's at $47 mil. Hence the repeater was reset. he didn't save anything

    are people forgetting about the team friendly payment agreement for wb where is spare Houston from making massive up-front payments. Poor Tilman

    I have thought the same thing, that Morey did the Tweet on purpose to get out - still think that - he is far too smart to do something like that without knowing it would be a problem.

    That is ugly !!! Lots of people berating him on his IG asking him to sell the team, calling him a cheap ass... I am sure Morey wants out after this season , hope this ******* is happy...

    Usual suspects (Tilman family burner accounts, probably) will continue to defend this moron’s cheapness. @ Tilman on Twitter and shame him into not being a cheapskate version of James Dolan.

    Depressing. The future after Harden and Westbrook looks like New York Knicks level of bad...

    The sad thing is that nowhere in here do I see anything about making the team better. It's all about saving money. :(

    What is the name of Tillman's blues band?

    I'm assuming that he has a blues band.

    So glad that in April we will be done paying off the 3 years of season tickets we bought with that 3 year price guarantee. $2500 a month for this bull. We already drafted the letter canceling them and will send it as soon as our contract ends.

    Make sure to point out it was specifically due to Tilman's cheapness that you are not renewing

    If he thinks he can cheap around and folks will keep showing up for a non contending team then he’s in for a awakening. The Texans can get away with that because we love football. Fans will chunk basketball the deuce in a minute.

    Too bad that Tilman has this mindset during the prime of a top 5 player in the NBA, but we've known this since the 2018 offseason. He'll be able to enjoy years of avoiding the lux tax when we're irrelevant after Harden's decline.

    Almost all Landry's restaurants are mediocre and of very poor value. You're not missing out.

    I don't blame him for trying to save money for his own wallet. but I do blame him for Morey's extended contract. That move killed the future of this team.

    Hey Patrick. When do you plan on taking over as GM?

    the only person that's responsible for killing the team and for years to come is Tilman himself

    here's another one @Nook

    Let’s not believe the fake media. Give Tillman one more chance. He wants to win, but the fear is he just has no money to spend as he spent every dime for the team.
