    Yea idk. We still have him but he isn’t even with the rockets.


    I would waive Clemons and bring Justin Anderson. Bring Harty from the Gleague and Play him. He needs more playing time so he can have more confidence.

    30.5 ppg / 20 rpg / 3.5 apg / 3.0 bpg / 75% fg %

    ...we have no interest in such stats - we're playing SMALL BALL! Oh boy!

    Now somebody can rail about what a fkn genius MDA is... smh...

    but.. but... MDA is a genius...

    I mean he's never won a championship or anything... but he's 'revolutionized the game...'

    Welp... if nothing else comes of this season maybe we'll finally be rid of stubborn ass MDA and his midget ball proclivities... and we can stop with the thoughtless regurgitation of stats - as though they are a substitute for actually winning a championship...

    Hey guys, we've been so close to winning a championship - but that juggernaut GSW has been in the way... What, GSW is done this year? Well hell lets totally rework our game plan then... smh...

    Time and time again we’ve seen players not get a chance with the Rockets only to become good players on other teams. It’s almost comical at this point. Of course then we want them back and usually are willing to give up first round picks. Crazy.

    Reason #1 to get rid of D'Antoni. He won't play Chandler and he might as well play Isiah.

    Even if Pringles wants to stick with small ball when WB is on the floor, at least play Harty when WB sits.

    Any kind of fool can see. I was wrong, and I just can't live without you.

    The timing is impeccable, I mean we need a lineup change right about now.

    Move Harkinstein as starter and no small ball again. All teams know how to beat Houston, why the players follow MDA to die. Fire MDA immediately if he still does not give minutes for Harkinstein or Tyson to play

    Player of the Week down there is like a guaranteed 13th spot..... but I agree, out of desperation get him in there.

    Not saying he has, but MDA's persona seems like someone with a savant syndrome, extremely good at something but lacking in other departments.

    Nope. Mike regrets not doubling down in Phoenix. A month after the deadline and four-game losing streak, "Yeah, let me scrap that small ball and start Tyson/Isaiah."

    Sorry Hartenstein/Hartenstein fans, maybe next year.

    D’Antoni admitted where it all went wrong before the team slowly disbanded. “We were scared. Every single voice told us ‘we cannot do that’, ‘you cannot win’, and the reason we didn’t win is that we didn’t go far enough,” D’Antoni admitted. “We listened to some doubters and we should’ve put the pedal down a little harder.”
