    We will be getting an enforcer or two to take out two Dubs. Get ready for Riley ball 2.0, Bad Boys 2.0.

    I hope he does not sit on his laurels because honestly the only real star that he really brought himself is James Harden. And he lives and die by the Harden.

    He helped with Dwight but we knew that HOFers, Milkhair and others recruited hard.

    Something up our sleeve? Like that's gonna make us competitive with the Warriors? There is literally nothing that can be up Morey's sleeve that can even make us take one game from the Warriors in a 7 game series. Nothing.

    I wouldn't be surprised if next season is one of the worst and least watched NBA regular seasons (and possibly playoffs) in the post-Jordan era. As much as I love the Rockets, I feel zero hype going into next season.

    Neither are Jerry West, Giannis, Porzingis and Bradley Beal.

    I agree with Maury. They are not unbeatable. Triple chinned Murray about to make that big splash that shocks entire city of Houston.

    Except that big splash is when he takes his 25 stone ass to Schlitterbahn Park and comes rolling down the slides and SPLASH, waves sent to Houston...

    What is he supposed to say really?

    "They are unbeatable, we will fold and trade them Harden for McCaw and ask the commish if we can play in the G-league."

    I think a lot of GMs and players look at this and go "Oh, so this is how we're going to do this?"

    You're going to see which stars REALLY want to win above all else. Is Paul George going to force his way to the Lakers to play in L.A or is he going to try and fit his way onto a team that already has all-stars.

    Is Chris Paul going to resign with a team that is doing nothing or is he going to go to the Spurs or Pelicans for less for a chance at a chip.

    You're going to see who really wants a ring and who's just here to play ball and collect as much money as they can.

    Same for GMs/Owners, will they just happily pack it in and be content with playoff appearances or will they do all they can to build a team to match the warriors?

    Does he mean roster moves or how they are playing on the court?

    "Pay heed, all ye season ticket holders! O ye of little faith! The Warriors are not invincible!!!! We have something up our sleeve!!!"

    As Bernie Mac would have said, "Sh*********y*******t." (Imagine a tripthong in there.)

    I hope this isn't Morey bravado. That "something up our sleeves" better not be a butter knife or a spoon.

    really, after seeing the Cavs perform this good, with 3 all stars on their roster and still lost the game 5, i doubt our players can do any better than that...... we need at least a second super star at least to have a chance to compete, otherwise, no chance

    What's up his sleeve?

    My guess is a starting lineup of.

    Harden
    Bev
    Ariza
    Gallo
    Ryan

    All shooters all day
