    George Karl would also just be a "WC finals at best coach" , is not Finals proven, a bandaid, just an older one.

    Yep, same thing different year, our GM has no clue other than to kick the can down the road....hey look fans....another draft pick....

    Look at the shiny object in the stream.......oh sure we got worse...but look at that shiny object.

    Morey - your time is up......unless the Dmo trade was something that leads to us getting better now, it is officially time for him to go...and he can take that cheap ass Les with him.

    Part of me is wondering if Morey is self distructing his work because he knows his time is through.

    Steve Patterson may have people issues at Texas, but I appreciated that he hired Shaka Smart and brought beer to the stadium and the all you can eat buffet at the Terrace Club.

    He's still the architect of the Rockets championships. He hired Rudy T, drafted horry, etc

    Come back to Htown, be nicer to folk and we'll be back!

    I don't have much confidence when Morey gets first round picks. He has proven to be a mediocre to poor drafter

    Waiting for him to draft another 1st round bust just like he did with WHite and Dekker and Mook over Kawhi

    How is Dekker a bust? He has been injured and who would you have prefer over him?

    I don't have a problem with Morey other than his choosing McHale. Waste of f'ing time and now he HAS to promise potential to keep his job.

    His choice of replacement for McHale was the head defensive assistant for a defensively failing team. Gave in to Harden, who now clearly was pissed at McHale for calling him overweight. Replaced him with a guy who's good friends with the players, making him unlikely to command their respect.

    What's really ****ty about it is that McHale kept overachieving, making it hard to justify firing him.

    Big mess. I have no patience for a rebuilding process anymore. Even if we strike gold this summer, we won't win it the first season after acquiring another major piece because now we also have depth issues coming up. Ugh.

    To think I was expecting a championship run and now we look forward to a 15th pick and MAYBE someone decides to join a mediocre western conference team. Man. Please prove me wrong Morey.

    Looking at the way this team is built
    The philosophy is sound but needs tweaking

    Honestly . . . . this seems SO ****ING SIMILAR TO THE RUN AND SHOOT

    No one in their Right mind could say it was a Failure
    Except . . . in situations where you had to run the clock
    A few Tweaks and it would have been ok
    but
    PARDEE and crew REFUSED to change at all

    Morey should learn from that . . . LEARN TO TWEAK it a bit
    some situation require some other things
    there is no ONE SIZE FITS ALL
    esp BAsketball

    Morey has made us worse - GM's get fired for doing that.

    Trading a good young PF for a speculative draft pick? That is not building around Harden, that is pushing competing for a championship further away.

    Honestly - Morey has to go - he has had 8 years, he needs to go before Harden ups and leaves after Howard does this summer and we end up in a dumpster fire.

    McHale isn't the coach anymore and W. ain't the president... May want to look in-house for the issues on the team and a guy doing spots on TNT isn't on that list.

    ClutchFans is the only place that thinks Morey is a great GM and McHale is an awful coach. It is obvious by listening to ANY peer talk about the two that the league perception is the inverse, but people here are way smarter than those actually involved in the game...
