    Q:How’s your basketball skill?
    A:Average United States high school level

    Q:Since Jeff Bzdelik is leaving, what’s your plan towards regrouping coaching staff?
    A:We will likely bring someone in from the outside

    Q:If it is possible to see Zhou Qi come back to Rockets?
    A:We are closely watching @ZhouQi development and may bring him back in the future if he is interested. Many NBA players take the route of Zhou Qi to the NBA where they start in NBA and return later such as PJ Tucker.

    Q:How to we defeat the Warriors next year
    A:Golden State Worriers are one of the greatest teams ever but we have been by far the team that gives them the most trouble and we will be better next year. They also have a chance of losing significant players next year.

    Q:We can have up to 9 trade exceptions this summer is it true?
    A:Yes we have 9 trade exceptions. Most are minimum salary size though so not super useful.

    Q:Could you tell us some suitable candidate SF in summer
    A:We plan to add significant player(s) this offseason. Likely at the wing.

    “Likely at the wing.”

    Hope that Jimmy B dream comes true, then.

    “Likely at wing”. This should be interesting.

    Yeah, Eric, I don't want to see you go, but let's be honest here, mmmmmmmmmkay?

    To be fair, Eric started out so slowly but was really strong toward the end of the season. Much like the team itself. So if he were to go, yeah, it'd be sad in the sense that he does want to be here. I just don't see CP3, 34 years old and heinous contract, as on his way out. It's all about EGO's expiring and draft picks.

    Remember when it seemed like Morey was 2-3 steps ahead?

    Now it’s “well we lost the closest and next year maybe they’ll be worse!!”

    What is the wing? 2-3, 3-4 or 2-4. Hope he means 3-4

    What the hell do you expect him to say or do?

    He built a team that came very close to beating one of the 2-3 greatest teams ever assembled.

    The next year he was told by the owner not to go into the luxury tax.

    Even with almost no financial means, he had a deal to get JaMychal Green and the Grizzlies backed out at the last minute.

    What the hell can he say? He said that he anticipates being better and the Warriors may not be as good.

    I know there was a Morey magician GIF floating around for awhile, but he is a wizard, he has to play by the same rules as everyone else and has an owner that last year apparently thought spending money wasn't really necessary.

    In Mor3y I trust. The pun is intended. The pun is double entendre.

    I think so, aside the fact that a 2 is a guard, i think if you look at our roster:

    - guards: Harden, Paul, Gordon and potentially Rivers

    - wings: PJ, Clark and potentially House, Shumpert, Green

    The hole is definitely on the 3-4 spot/s.

    I also like the confirmation that they're going to bring in someone external for the coaching slot. I always assumed the reason they didn't in September (when Bzdelik left) was because it was too late in the calendar, but nice to have it confirmed that they won't just reshuffle the existing staff and will instead pursue an outside upgrade.
