    You basically have three players who have a pretty good idea they'll be here next season: Harden, Beasley, and Beverly (Pat has been playing very well).

    The rest of these guys look ready to move on from the Rockets, whether by trade or in free agency.

    It's pretty much a train wreck of a season and I honestly would rather the team tank and keep that draft pick, except how missing the postseason would toss a stench over the organization when Morey tries to show up on doorsteps July 1st with his hat in his hands.

    i think getting swept by GS in consecutive blowouts might be even worse for the free agent pitch

    The Minnesota connection is way to prevalent here. McHale, JB, Brewer, Beasley. Beasley panned out, but the Brewer nepotism is stupidly harmful to the team. This is Kubiak-sticking-with-his-boy-Schaub-over-a-willing-Peyton-Manning bad.

    I'm pretty sure the odds of Bickerstaff staying on as HC here next year are close to zero.

    It's kinda like the Texans' 2-14 season when they went to Wade Phillips to lead that flaming Viking funeral boat off into the horizon. Just let Bickerstaff do the same thing. No use getting upset about it now.

    Beasly needs to start the last 6 games. Bickerstaff needs to shake it up and just play Beasly Gouldlock Harden 35+ minutes and see how many wins they can get. Bickerstaff has nothing too lose anymore.

    Just looked at the box score against the Suns and Mavs games... but the minute allocation. WTH.

    it's like there are a certain number of lottery balls assigned to each of our players and that decides the rotation.

    How do you explain completely leaving DMo out of the rotation in the Dallas game and then going back to starting him against Phoenix? He played well and had the best +/- on the team, but he only ended up playing 12 minutes despite starting! JBB did the same thing with KJ against Dallas! Started him but Terry and Brewer both ended up playing more minutes than him!

    I can easily see him get a 5 year extension if we beat GSW just 1 game.

    If he gets a extension I'm team hopping

    Like I literally blame him 100% for half of our losses, especially when Brewer www clocking more power forward minutes than jones/smith/Harrell combined

    If going the playoffs get him a contract I'd rather hit the lottery

    I don't think he'll be a head coach, but he may remain on the new coach's staff.
