    Big 6 plus refs are super strong. I dont think we can form a lineup which can beat them. I think morey is helping his boss to avoid salary tax and saving money. I feel hopeless and does not want to watch nba.

    Nah, we ain't lil b****es. The Warriors didnt need a big, they needed more wing depth. Now they have only vet minimum salaries to upgrade from Nick Young. Their logjam of centres continues. They didn't sign Boogie Cousins. They signed Boogie Cousins coming off the worst injury a player can get who is trying to earn a big payday next season.

    Everybody needs to chill the **** out.

    what does it mean give up? Forfeiting the games? Sit out the players? Letting Capela go for nothing?
    We can't just ...give up if that'swhat you mean.

    As a fan you have every right to give up after this disgusting quality of product the NBA is serving you.
    If you have leaguepass cancel it, and don't buy any ticket to a game.Only that will send your message to the league.

    Rockets will make it to the Conference Finals if they stay healthy in the post season. And it’s gonna be another 6-7 game series.

    No because we have Harden who’s the greatest player in the league.

    Should’ve used his MVP speech to recruit players. Oh well #swagchamps

    Nobody is beating the Hampton 6. CP3 and Tucker are our only fighters... Harden doesn't hit back in the playoffs.

    Not giving up but I am somewhat depressed to be honest.

    I just don't get this league anymore.

    I don't get the thought process of the current NBA player.

    I want to boycott and not watch next season but I've never not watched my Rockets.

    What have we done to the youth where they now fear and literally run away from real competition?

    No use,

    Time to get competitive Rockets need to go way over LT and will be $$$.

    Then if Boogie is even semi OK in playoffs no playing them Warriors.

    They will sweep, unless......

    Injures to KD or Curry

    But our CP3 is even more injury prone.

    Meanwhile, team has no SF..

    7 foot, 300 pound center with a bad attitude coming off of an achilles tear. Would anyone be shocked if Boogie only played 20 games this year?

    Boogie may very well hurt them more than he helps them. He could very well be a disruptive force in the locker room and his style of play does not fit in with their system very well. Besides, he just suffered the worst injury a bball player can have so he may never be the same again.

    Well that’s where your wrong, center position was there weakest position and they just filled it with an all star center

    Their wings are fine did you forget Livingston and iggy play for them, they could play an 8 man roster like us abd be fine.

    Yeah you’ll be the same guy b****ing after warriors **** all over everybody. Good luck with all that

    And we haven’t even improved our team yet.

    Expecting the worse, but still praying for the best.

    He’s 27 and medicine has advanced soo much each year. I fully expect him to be back and dominating. Achilles injuries aren’t what they use to be. It’s like the new ACL, back then that was a death sentence now it’s like a 6 month recovery.

    Man, if the smallest thing happens, all of a sudden the doom and gloom comes from EVERYWHERE. The Rockets have not made any real moves yet, our GM just won executive of the year, and has consistently proven to be one of the best. Why is there so much panic....on JULY 3rd?!?! I mean of course Golden State is good, but so are we. We will be fine. Can we at least wait until something bad actually happens? If they let Capela walk, or we cut the MVP, or if Daryl Morey says he's a Cowboys fan....ANYTHING other than Lebron being on the 2007 Also-ran team, or the Warriors signing a big man that WE DIDN"T WANT..... I mean C'MON.....

    Warriors are betting boogie to recoup enough for a playoff run. Boogie won't be playing much if any during the reg season. It's a gamble again boogie to perform on a level equal to McGee, which isn't much anyway.

    I like how pelicans did on getting randle from Lakers and LA get rondo.

    This is a bigger impact to the Lakers as they are now all of sudden got older. This is Cavs version of LeBron stacking team with old role players.

    This lineup would DESTROY The Warriors:

    PG - Chris Paul
    SG - James Harden
    SF - Jesus of Nazareth
    PF - Thanos
    C - Clint Capela
