    Every time he's asked about Westbrook, he starts off with something about Chris Paul.
    Think Mike wanted to do this trade? ;)

    Tilman is so full of ****. It's going to be some dark years once Harden and Westbrook get old.

    Not just the recent comments... everything we've heard so far. I'm not the only one that thinks maybe D'antoni prefers Paul. Right?

    no it's clear.

    This was Tilman pretending like he spends money by making a splashy move.

    Morey is gone within 3 years by choice, I presume.

    As sure as UH will be a top 10 team, MDA prefers Chris Paul.

    I hope we don't have some initial chemistry issues because Mike is going @Carl Herrera regarding CP3.

    I’m sure Daryl did scour the league for additions to the trade... I’m also sure Tilman told Daryl “No”.

    I understand everyone trying to be polite but let’s call it for what it is. Tilman didn’t use the MLE last year and we lost a close series to the Warriors. Tilman wanted Anderson’s deal moved so we lost multiple picks so Tilman got out of one year of Anderson’s deal. Then after rightfully getting called out he actually claimed he never made the team avoid the luxury tax.

    Now this year they haven’t used the majority of the MLE because of Tilman. The Rockets did not expand the Westbrook because of Tilman wanting to avoid the tax.

    Time for Tilman to either be honest and admit he is not paying the tax or to shut up... from sending your GM and coach to a press conference with “creative math”, knowing you are not paying to bring Ariza back.... to sending your GM out to discuss a trade for Jimmy Butler when your arrogant ass had zero assurances.

    Seriously... Tilman, just shut up and let your GM do his job.

    He had all of last year and he has had this summer.

    He let Ariza go.

    He lost multiple picks to move Anderson to save money.

    He didn’t use most the MLE this year or last year.

    He deserves all the **** he has gotten and a whole lot more.

    Some of us don’t choose to be willfully blind to what is happening, but go ahead.

    I hope our NG bros and Shumpert can land us something. Our forward rotation as currently constructed is not going to cut it.

    Perhaps Tilman would have some money if he didn't pay off everyone to slurp him and the Rockets

    This team talks more than the performances top to bottom. verbal diarrhea rampant

    I notice MDA said nothing about the team being better or championship caliber. Also sure sounds like MDA thinks this is all we are getting.
