    Of course, that means you must also believe we should have won 60 games, which means you also believe that we could have done that with Corey Brewer and Tyler Ennis (since MDA says we were *not* screwing it up before), and then Harden gets the MVP

    ....if we just don't screw it up by making that trade.

    28th + Brewer surely moves us up one spot

    He's talking about Roy Rogers. After the All-Star break he just mailed it in.

    I just needed it Fact Checked. Looks like I was wrong.

    I don't know how you guys do it. I can't trust my read of tweets anymore, in this world of Fake News. like ... non. That 59% and 2.2% tweet yesterday had me fooled, too. Thanks to the poll, at least we now know that Morey wasn't to blame at all, and we shouldn't fire him for screwing up a 60-win team like that.

    We still don't know who was most to blame for screwing up, though. I'm sure Patitta is going to get to the bottom of that...because my sources who went to HS with him say he didn't want to make the trade, as he had his eye on Kuzma. (Maybe I should move that idea to the Random Trade Idea thread?)

    Talking about harden who averaged 28-8-8 after the all star break instead of averaging 39-12-12 for us to be in it. Damn that scrub

    28th and Brewer would get us a 2nd rounder. A team would literally dump to want to take on Brewer.

    Heydud, you need to quit posting. You're looking real silly lately.

    HP are you really arguing that Brewer and Ennis have positive impacts both/either on and off the court? I can't agree with you there lol.

    Somewhere, CarlHerrera is furiously flogging himself because he didn't think to start this thread.

    Damn, HeyP... normally you eventually get to a point where I'm like 'oh yeah there's where he's going'. I think that's lacking thus far. My literal hope is that you're drinking and I can be like, "haha, heyp got after it!!!!!".

    So far I'm confused, but if you have a real point I'm sure it will be made. You're no dummy. Maybe your point is that you're capable of not making a point? Either way... 11 star thread in terms of personal interest.

    Why'd you go after Os Trig? That made no sense.

    Guys, it's simple. No need to go chicken little...

    HP just read a tweet, didn't know what it meant, and wanted us to help him out. It's all.... and he's probably drunk.

    Basketball holix once told el gnomo that it is a bad idea to post while drunk and/or high.

    This thread reminds me of that

    No shade, because he would be delusional if he seriously thinks that having Ennis and Brewer (of all people) would have gotten the Rockets to the 60-win mark.

    If we played like we did after last all-star break, we'd be on pace for the 8th seed this season.
