    I'm mostly offended by how bad the attempt at humor is. Is he trying to get upvotes on five-year-old r/nba threads or something?

    Ernie is 100% there to cater to the masses. His "joke" was clickbait. He has maybe one meaningful teary-eyed monologue, which gave him the license to do and they've all been cringe.

    if he didn’t, then whoever did probably ran it by him and he co-signed it, so Ernie is still a chump

    I get it, it sucks to be known as the whiny town.
    But if you’re a fan of the sports teams and the city in general it’s hard having any real conversation with other people because of the media. Any objective person can see there is a clear bias against Houston teams and even when complimentary it’s backhanded. This leads to a large group of sports fans thinking the same way just because the media tells them.

    You read the thread and posted about the content, so what does that make you? Just don’t get sloppy with the makeup. The suit is on the house.

    Lakers, Heat, Mavs, Bucks = writes something positive.

    Rockets = writes something that's not only negative, but is a complete hyperbole.

    Is the definition of "joke" changing, as we head into a new decade? I thought jokes were supposed to be funny.

    I cannot wait for the book Morey writes when he retires. I hope he throws all these assholes under the bus. He knows where a lot of the bodies are buried and who has skeletons in their closets.... from what Stern did with the Chris Paul trade, to how big a loser Howard is, to how creepy Zach Lowe is, to Jimmy Butler ghosting the Rockets... to those fat pigs at ESPN nosing through piles of **** to get a story. Discuss all of it... Kerr’s comments in private, The cheating by ESPN created stars... all of it.

    Y'all realize this list wasn't even made by Ernie, but the writers of that TV show? Same how Shaq is given a piece of paper with his lines during Shaqtin a Fool. He doesn't even pick/choose the clips. All that **** including tweets is being handled by the writers/producers.

    Yes because apparently everyone in the media is completely cool with it.

    Then Ernie should not have taken credit for it. He's even more of a fool to me that he's signing off on this BS.

    As an avid whiner of the Houston Rockets I'm surprised so many are angry about this. This is pretty regular stuff compared to other Rockets hate.

    And it doesn't even make sense really. Harden lives at the FT line because nobody can stop him without fouling. Does Ernie hate Rockets fans and want our superstar to become worse and more easily stopped? o_O
