    Disagree. MDA has said publicly how he runs his offense since he believes it’s the most efficient way to use harden. The coach runs the style of play and this is Houston’s style. Now you can blame morey because he has a large part To do with how the rockets play. Maybe it’s time to take a step back and have complete assessment of where we are and perhaps implement changes because whatever product out there that Tillman and morey and MDA have hasn’t worked in terms of championships and playoff success. The 2018 series against you know who showed a flaw in the system/personnel.

    If Tilman hadn’t already been cheap we would have Melton, who is 10th in the MFIng league in RPM.

    Or Salary to trade. Covington maybe?

    or House could have played more last year and been more prepared tho season.

    On behalf of the Ferttita family, i would like to thank you for your support and understanding. Regrettably, Mr. Ferttita would most likely not be able to read this post as he is on a mobile plan with no internet access. I would be happy to forward this post to him. He would be delighted when he reads this on his HP laptop.

    I tried to support Tillman by going to the Golden Nuggets when they first opened. I went on a weekday, and the minimum to play any table games was $25.... If I am going to play $25 a hand, I might as well go to Vegas.

    if you can't play $25 locally, why it be any different playing the same amount in vegas where everything is more expensive ?

    I understand what you mean, but what I am trying to say is if I am going to play a higher minimum table, I would have gotten a better comp in Vegas (Food, shows, rooms, and etc). There is really nothing much to do in Lake Charles lol.

    There's probably some truth in that.

    You invest whatever money you have.

    A few years down the road...PROFIT!

    When was the last time you invested a big chunk of your own money to make others "happy"?

    A few years down the road, the Rockets are the least popular team in Houston and what do you think is gonna happen when this franchise gets flushed down the toilet after Morey leaves????? You think hes gonna make more money?

    I dont give a crap about the perspective of a scummy fake billionaire like him, I honestly do not. The people who care about the perspective of super rich people like that are one of the reasons we have a orange buffoon as POTUS.

    Tilman is going to sell the Rockets for $3B and profit $1B.

    He will be laughing all the way to the bank and will just end up buying it as well.

    He is not going to be able to do that if he keeps throwing away money at fat contracts and luxury taxes.

    So you think he'll make more money from a team that is hot garbage? As opposed to when he bought a 65 win team?

    If he went into tax last year, we could have won the championship. If we didnt try to do stupid deals, we could still have assets like Melton. He is a terrible, cheap owner. LOL and if he fires Morey(and he really might)...this franchise is going directly into the toilet,lets see how much of a profit he makes then.

    Only a few teams win championships.

    Owners still make a lot of money.

    You dont need a championship to make money owning a pro team.

    Tilman is smart. He knows the math.

    Honestly I dont think the current model in professional sports is sustainable - all these leagues eve increasing revenues / salary caps ?? Just seems like we've hit the pinnacle or close to it. Maybe this is more telling of the economy in general - people have money to spend but when we hit a downturn .... all these leagues will take a huge hit.

    I expect when Ferntits does sell the team , it will be at a substantial loss - A no more China , B They wont be good. C See Above.

    Its one thing to pay top dollar for a team that's fighting for championships every year , quite another to pay top dollar for one thats been run into the ground.

    Keep your Orange Buffoon out of the GARM .....

    Maybe yes, maybe no...time wiill tell what happens to the league.

    I agree.
    Agree again.

    I said what I said bro, if someone wants to report me they can. I rarely bring up politics in GARM but Im not gonna apologize for my analogy.

    How about no. Or is this the all-sarcasm thread. I think JB Bickerstaff is available?
