    Fertitta has already done this, which is why we lack assets. He got rid of our expiring contracts and gave away our draft picks to duck the tax.

    Okay. Time to bring in Giannis, AD and Towns if there's no restrictions.

    Only thing i got from that is NBA execs also think Tillman is cheap, so its not just an inside joke amongst rockets fans.

    I don’t disagree. But that was the rationale then...circumstances change, and his opinions may have changed.

    anything said or leaked to the media is meant to influence, not inform (I wish people would realize this about the media and politics as well). His actions over the next 48 will tell us more than his words.

    Even if this is true, he should've done this a year ago, not now that we don't even have salaries to move without losing core pieces so, yeah, still a joke of an owner.

    Haha.
    Man, the moves they could have made with Kelly Oubre, draft picks, and more expiring salaries... what a hollow statement nowadays.

    Tilman going on in to the media while behind the scenes he is probably rationing the number of toilet tissue squares people are allowed to use at TC duding games... this guy is a truly a oily used car salesmen in the cheap heaps portion of the lot. Total bullshit artist !

    Looks like the money I lost this past weekend might have pushed Tillman to spend freely. #stayawayfromtheQuickHitSlots

    Should I believe my eyes or should I believe Jabari Young?

    Tough decision.
