I hate these types of the owners 1) talk too much, intervene too much on decision making, acting classless 2) doesn't spend money, and run the team only as business.e Unfortunately, Tilman looks like both so far.
Haha, this is ridiculous. This site needs like a 10% member club, or some functions where there's a group of mods that check these threads. That first night of FA was a cluster **** on here. But of course, if the Rockets are winning... *crickets* except legit fans, the site is more popping if there's even a hint of a fire. And I'm all for constructive criticism, but this site should be called sometolittleclutchfans.net I know some are joke threads and some are kneejerk, but a lot are garbage/drunk threads
OP with a great and true thread. Everyone says it has been just two years, but the sample size is indicative of the way we are being run. Embarrassing tweets and comments from all management levels of the organization and lack of effort speaks volumes. This is being run by a non-trustworthy casino giant. His goal is to talk a big game to get you in his building and then screw you over by hedging the bets in the favor of the house...not the patrons. What was once a classy organization is now being run by a sleazy casino tycoon and the results speak for themselves. I am not from Houston, but recall a classy furniture store owner, who selflessly gave shelter to hundreds of Houstonians during the massive flooding, wanted to purchase the team and lost out to Tillman. That may turn out to be the biggest loss this franchise has ever had.
I think we all know Tillman is a complete d******d. Like an actual ass of a human being. And is cheap, and dishonest. And has no feel for NBA basketball and wants to star chase at all costs. But his terrible ownership can be mitigated if Morey was not a clown. The idea of Tillman hiring a new GM is scary af. I cannot imagine how bad his pick would be.
If 80 percent of regular season success can be traced back to Harden and his insane 36 ppg usage rate, then the FO has failed to put a decent team around Harden. Most of those guys were just pawns. I think a lot us realize this ISO show is a One man show that is just not sustainable with over 30 yr olds. We want to see real teamwork.
It truly amazes me that some people get upset at others for critiquing a team for promising “fireworks” and then sitting on their arses the entire offseason while the rest of the West has leapfrogged them. This includes trading away a first round pick for Schumpert and making no other moves but to get under the luxury tax at the trade deadline of what should have been a historic year for Harden with any help from the front office. Fans have been promised much better results from management and have every right to be upset!!! If management wants to keep quiet and not make exhuberant claims of massive change, then that that is another story.
The OP is right and this is an interesting thread. Why is everyone attacking him? An owner is the alpha and the omega of a franchise. If the owner is bad, then the team will go nowhere. Anyway the Rockets owner is very inexperienced and new to this. Except for Balmer EVERY other new nba owner has made many mistakes that had dire consequences for the play on the court. We have to be patient. He will get better. Even Vivek improved.
Tell that to Knicks fans who have been watching their beloved team be abused for decades. The fans have the right to speak up against ownership. We have the right to critisise, and ridicule when needed. We can't buy the team from the owner, nor we can force him to sell but we can publicly shame ownership into improvement. Thankfully Fertitta isn't that bad to resort to that . yet.
Because our former owner Uncle Les set the bar really high We won our only 2 CHAMPIONSHIPS in his first 2 seasons @tinman @Rasheed
