    I still think the extension was fine, considering how small the risk was. Having one year of dead salary next year doesn’t matter really (outside of making it harder to take on bad contracts for assets). I think at this point though most people should be convinced he just doesn’t have it

    Maybe and I would be ok with that.....but I see what they are trying to do and I applaud them because if it works we are good for years.

    Scooter boy still blowing up, huh?! :D

    https://bbs.clutchfans.net/threads/scoot-and-bucket-3-4-blowing-up-this-year.316606/

    Scooter blowing up! Attack! Attack! Attack!
    Wait, now it’s Silas’ fault and “he’s just doing what the Rockets want.” LOL


    You: We’re not that far off!
    Also you: Rockets ain’t doing sh’t for another 3-5 years

    You: Rockets are NOT tanking this year
    Also you: LET IT FLY KPJ! We are tanking!

    You: Advocates for trading the better player (Green) because he’ll bring back more in a trade than KPJ(worthless).
    You: wanted to cut Garuba for Whiteside
    Back to Scooter boy, is he still blowing up? Or Silas, Green & the Holidays are holding him back?

    Flip-flopping nonstop gives you the luxury of being able to say "I wasn't wrong" afterwards, and claiming that the curse isn't real (we all know it is).

    That would be mind blowing if the GM gives you 18 or 20 million a year to sabotage winning.

    Games like this one against the Magic is why he makes us mad.

    30 point game, great individual moments—was probably one of the main reasons we lost the game. He was so sticky with the ball that our other starters became discombobulated. He wants to take technical free throws with three better foul shooters on the floor and turns the ball over with lazy passes in the clutch.

    As an offensive spark plug, he’d be great. As our lead guard, he’s been bad. That’s all there is to it.

    Half way through first half, I was thinking, "Well, KPJ is going to drop 30 points tonight. And the Scoot gang is going to be alive again!"

    Why is he blaming the holidays?

    Does he need time off? Is he going through something?

    Everything in there is true, taken in the proper context.

    :)

    For example we can be both, not that far off, and 3-5 years away from contending....

    Not that far off from the playoffs, 3-5 years from being an actual contender.....you are leaping to your own conclusions....but that's ok.....it happens.
