    Might give them a leg up on the competition if they plan to promote from within when Mike , Dan and Tony make their exit.

    He’ll get fired for sexual harassment telling everybody in the organization they have a great body.

    Wouldn't blame you for not coming here either. You don't like the team.

    There will be more Dungeons and Dragons shows for you to watch instead, Bilbo.

    On defense he would tell the team it’s like clubbing baby seals. I’m in. Clyde’s soundbites are worth it alone.

    At least we know Clyde will keep it real and tell it like it is and not cater to you know who and he can't say shitz to him because he's a champion.

    I don't see how the lame duck status isn't hurting the situation. It has to.

    Tilman/Morey want the flexibility but you can't have that and have coaches not knowing their future. Rockets have to fix this.

    Let’s see, unemployed coaches turning down a year of coaching in the NBA?


    Do. Not. Believe.

    Hey, Chewbacca, you were not the only one watching and posting about Game of Thrones instead of the Rockets playoff games. You are not alone :) (at the cosplay convention).

    still mad about that? Tbh im pretty sure at minimum 10 times more people watched got over the rockets. Like im a fan but damn bro I get the feeling youve been sitting there 24/7 reloading rockets.com and espn. Did it hurt when you cut your wrist after the rockets lost ?

    You know if you tried talking to a girl as much as you reply to me you might not die being such an angry virgin

    I know: remember when you said real fans don't watch the games, because real fans know victory will occur. How did not watching work out for you?

    Wonder if the Rockets ever considered him? Wonder if MDA's lame duck status is becoming an issue.

    How could it not be an issue?

    All coaches know they will bounce around cities during their career, but that doesn't mean they don't want at least the potential for 2-3 years in one spot.

    And I imagine that all coaches believe that an incoming HC should be able to choose his assistants, so even if the Rockets promise keeping a guy around past this season it wouldn't really be fair to the next HC, so you're creating a less than ideal environment.

    I get the approach, not wanting to commit to MDA after falling short this year, but IMO you have to give him the extension and then be prepared to eat that cost if you go in a different direction next year.
