    It’s hot now but it will be nice enough where other places as south as north Texas have terrible winter days

    The summer heat is brutal and nba players can avoid a lot of it by being in LA

    while our winters might be more habitable..our falls here are usually a headache-- north Texas doesn't flood as easily or have hurricanes like us

    Surprisingly (i say this because he’s been quiet since the trade, in respect to OKC i assume) he looked pretty happy and lively. You can tell he’s also trying to get off on the right foot with Houston’s media since his answers were pretty clear, descriptive and joyful.

    Biggest takeaways, Westbrook: he seems to understand that without sacrifice this won’t work, Morey: if a move comes, it’ll be through trade aka we’re not interested in the remaining free agents, Miscellaneous: Harden recruited Westbrook hard, i feel this is overlooked because this was said with a humorous vibe but now that I think about it, James really is a real one, guy doesn’t plot against Houston’s back to join another team with another player, he exclusively recruits stars to Houston and that’s big today in an NBA were loyalty has lost it’s value.

    I’m excited, can’t wait for the season.

    Good to see morey being in better physical shape these days. Been hitting the gym. Good job but still has ways to go.As for Russ just the answer of I don’t care or no one scares me as far as other duos go is the attitude this team needs.

    James has been loyal through thick and thin. The bad and good. Granted since his arrival we have virtually been a contender almost every year.

    I am sure Morey means that he is attempting to tango but Tilman refuses to join him on the floor. Tilman prefers to tango with Luxury Tax Savings.

    Westbrook's teams always had tremendous length and height that he funnelled opponents into or used to get the advantage for a rebound or putbacks. Houston has Capela and that's it....

    The Rockets can stop pretending that they are pursuing trades. Seriously.
