    It was a gamble, if he shoots inefficient jumpers and 3s.

    He re-invented himself.

    Boy, Tilman got very fortunate.

    The hate for tilman is getting annoying.

    rockets have a damn good team

    he owns it none of us here do.

    get over it....Les wasn’t any better of an owner. He never went over the tax either.

    their actually both similar all about getting stars and money.

    although I truly do believe that Tilman wants to win a championship more then Les did. Tilman is really into sports I never got that vibe from Les. I doubt he watches any nba games since he sold the team.

    Tilman and his kids are at all the big sporting events that involve a houston team. Tilman actually had season tickets for the rockets for the past 30 year before he bought the team. Guy loves basketball.

    no he’s not

    but if it helps you sleep at night go ahead.

    rockets have a high payroll two of the last 3 MVPs on their team and a lot of talent around them with a chance to make a trade with Gordon contract this offseason.

    the rockets are 4th per Vegas to win the title.

    The Rockets are winning a lot are very good what’s their to complain about?

    Tilman doesn’t play he doesn’t coach he’s not the GM.

    he owns the team and I’m positive he wants to win.

    we’re talking about a guy who’s a self made billionaire who owns 100s of restaurants hotels casinos and an nba team. Guy likes money and winning.

    No, he is garbage.

    Rockets are good because Harden and Morey are savants at what they do.

    He is a bottom 5 owner.

    Not sure I’d go that far but it is pretty weird that they sell his book at every Toyota Center merch stand. His self promotion is fine as long as we are winning.

    So, is Steve Kerr also a garbage coach? Sometimes you dont need to invent hot water just allow things to enfold naturally...to not interfere is one of the hardest things there is...

    Kawhi has the better reputation in the Playoffs and comes off a championship. You tell me.

    Westbrook just lost another series to Damian Lillard last year, his stocks plummetted.

    Paul George did look better than him last year, Clippers went with the hot hand.

    Clippers have another system, a system that probably won't give Westbrook that kind of freedom.

    This time he lucked out, what are chances that Westbrook is a childhood friend and understands the game just like Harden?

    What are the odds he completely abandons 3pt shooting and only drives?

    What are the chances Houston got 2 MVPs from OKC? The same rival franchise in the same Conference.

    I would say very unlikely under normal circumstances.
