    It's just a lost season. When things start going right, something inevitably goes wrong. It's one thing after another. Such a shame after how fun last year was.

    This is on Daryl Morey. This season, CP3's minutes are way up and so is Harden. Their lack of depth resulted in CP3 & Harden having to carry a much heavier load and it would only wear them down throughout the season. Their lack of depth compared to last year is just comical. As much credit as Morey deserves for what he's done, he deserves most of the blame for the downfall of this team. For every step closer the Rockets gets to their championship goals, Morey's decisions takes them 2 steps backwards.

    This will be a problem until Morey gives MDA a better bench... Tucker and Harden are at risk too... This is mostly on the GM.

    For F sake. Can’t catch a break. Has Morey been blacklisted? ALL GM’s have his number blocked? You would think by now he would realize this bench is an f’ing joke. Playing Paul 34mpg is just a ticking time bomb that just went boom. He is out for what?? 10-15 games now?

    Rest him until the playoffs. We can probably make the playoffs without him. We can't beat warriors without him.

    Our super max contract Yao. At least Yao had a slightly cap friendly salary.

    Yup I've been counting down as well. And in 3 years harden will be out of his prime.

    Going all in with Paul predictably has likely set the franchise back unfortunately.

    The guy has been injury prone all his career. It is not shocking.

    What is shocking is Daryl Morey thinking that MCW would give CP rest.
