    You know you've lost it when you think CC is a risky decaying asset:

    *24 yrs old
    *Has minor thumb injury
    *Planning to be back after ASB

    Risky, decaying asset? Morey has 100x more risk of dying due to heart disease than CC has of not playing wtf

    Here's a little old fashioned advice, free of charge for you @jopatmc, @basketballholic, whoever you will be next...

    When you're in a hole, stop digging.

    He isn't a valuable piece to what makes Harden successful. Maybe the team, but Harden is successful on his own.

    Wow. Holic or jopat...whoever is a real dimwit. He wants Capela traded for a big return but doesn't think he's worth anything. Which one is it? Also, The Bucks shipped ole "Thon Song" Maker out. Wonder why they would do that? This cat just can't admit when he's obviously wrong.

    so at the crossroads did we turn a corner or simply kick a can down the road? I'm confused

    How can you be at a crossroads when you are half-way into the season and in the thick of the race for the top 4 seeds while you are waiting for key players to get fully healthy and you are getting one of the most impressive seasons ever from your best player?

    I like Capela but suggesting him and others have much to do with the record is not right.

    Harden was responsible for the 5th seed and 90 percent of what is going on now.

    Without him healthy we are 9th seed at best.

    Depending on one player alone is far too dangerous, fatigue can get to him and he might have mental lapses again.

    Crossroads nor no crossroads, Tilman has to decide what he wants.

    This is for you, 'Holic. Saw them at the Music Hall on March 31, 1968 - same tour. Vanilla Fudge opened.

    I know @basketballholic is always wrong about his bold, pompously presented predictions, but I'm unfamiliar with the routine post-failed prediction. Does he normally disappear for a long stretch afterwards so that it can blow over, then come back and start over again? He's going on 6 days now since he was last seen.

    It varies. Sometimes he comes back and attacks people who mock his prior predictions.

    Normally though he still acts like he was right all along and has in the past said that everyone in the Rockets organization agrees but they have to cater to Harden. Now it will probably be that Morey agrees but Tilman ruined everything or something.

    Perhaps he could get decision assistance? Any suggestions on who might be primed at this Thon er time?

    It follows with "there was something that happened behind the scenes that I know but I'm not allowed to share it to y'all. That information that I can't tell yall proves I was right all along".

    I was expecting something along the lines of "I was right, we had to get under the tax and we did, we tried hard to shop Clint but unfortunately nobody was interested, everyone around the league understands he is worse than Thon Maker and wouldn't give up any assets for him"
