    Congratulations, Daryl. Glad to see you get this award you've deserved for so long. Charged with an impossible task, you did it....more than once.

    To say that we're fortunate to have you is an understatement. Year after year, you show everyone out there that anything is possible when you have DM the GM on the job.

    As a native Houstonian with Cougar and Rocket red running through my veins, I'd like to take this opportunity to say, Thank you.

    Morey has never been allowed to tank or rebuild. He hasn’t had high lottery picks to play with, which makes what he has done very impressive. I hope he gets an opportunity to do a real rebuild like other teams do at some point.

    Now win a title.

    I was with you till the full rebuild thing. He's gonna be our gm til he retires which means you want us to tank at some point so he can draft high? No thanks.

    Yeah at some point I want us to tank if it helps us rebuild quicker and with more talent. I would rather have a few seasons of 15-25 wins with high lottery picks than seasons where we win 40-45 games and pick 15th. I suspect Morey could do some damage with lottery picks and the ability to accumulate assets.

    I don’t want to rebuild now (would be foolish) but if we are not good in a couple years and ownership let’s Morey tear the team down to the core, I would support it completely.

    I can't accept this. I don't want to suck or touch .500 basketball ever again. Morey will bring in more free agents to keep this thing going forever.
