    Worthless MDA scapegoating House

    Don't like this move. House has been one of our four best players and it's unfair that he has to take a step back (no pun) just cause EG has been so ass.

    House has been great and Gordon has been God awful, but I'm all for figuring out ways to get Eric going. We can't trade him, the best and only solution is to get him playing his best basketball again.

    We have been starting games well but then the 2nd unit comes in and immediately coughs up the lead. Maybe having House in that lineup as one of our best players so far this year will help address that

    This isn’t about house. He is trying to get EGo going

    Eric Gordon is going to start in 5 games, at center.

    LMFAOOOO at Gordon being the Rockets best ANYTHING, let alone perimeter defender.

    D’Antoni is a trash coach. House has done nothing but play well on both ends in his entire Rockets regular season career and twice he’s been benched out for older, worse guys. Nice way to keep motivation high.

    Gordon must’ve cried to them or something.

    I think you meant “At what point do we TRADE Eric Gordon”

    I’ve been advocating that since a year or two ago. Dude can’t drive without falling over or turning it over. Also tired of his b****ing anytime he misses a shot

    This.

    I’ve been wanting to trade him.

    Unfortunately that can’t happen this season. They need to move on this off season though.

    Whatever it takes for Gordon and the team to get better I'm for it. House has been playing great hopefully he can play great from the bench also.

    House who has been playing well is losing his starting spot for EG who has been playing like trash...I don’t like it, but it is what it is

    EG’s shooting has been an embarrassment

    hopefully Russ and Capela can make up for the utter lack of rebounding that EG brings to the table

    starting 3 guards...I don’t like this midget ball

    EG is not going to start shooting better if plays less. Plus EG cant be traded until next year.

    Gordon, you picky ass, not taking his 6man role seriously anymore. Trade him
