    By that logic Rudy T inherited a championship team.
    He should give his rings to Don Chaney.

    no, Rudy T inherited a team that gave up on Don Chaney.

    But do pretend you know something about the 90s Rockets if it makes you feel happy

    Yup, exactly. I expected the Lin-Martin-Asik Rockets to at best win around 30 games. Then Harden (and the improvement of Parsons) happened. Things changed rapidly and unexpectedly.

    Easy with the insults there thinman, your insecurity is showing.
    Not all of us longtime fans feel to need to be a douchebag about it.

    Like I said, If Les Alexander inherited a championship team then by that same logic so did Rudy T.
    Kenny, Vernon, OT and Dream were all there.

    If any giving up was done it was the team's star that had given up on ownership. The same ownership that later scapegoated Chaney.
    That's one of the things that make your whiny complaints about Alexander so amusing. Some of us actually remember the Charlie Thomas years.

    Dragic doesnt want to come here because he doesnt want to stand around shooting 3s, which is exactly what any pg that plays next to Harden will be doing in this offense. You really think if the rox offerbhim the max contract he wants, hed turn it down?

    I mean they even have this paragraph in the recent ESPN article

    http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/12344251/goran-dragic-says-longer-trusts-phoenix-suns

    It's clear as daylight why he wouldn't want to play here. Unbelievable that people think he was unfairly treated by Leslie. The Dragic worship on this effing forum is mind bogglingly stupid at times.

    Exactly how I feel. People actually think this kind of attitude would work playing next to Harden? How long before we hear whispers of Dragic not happy that Harden's got more shots than him? Selfish selfish attitude and yet somehow this gets flipped around to Dragic being the victim? smh
