    He needs to cry first. Maybe he’ll get an exempt pass

    I think hiring a smart coach that will make adjustments, make an actual playbook, and bring out the best out of the players. But is hard to find a good coach today.

    I guess firing coach aint part of "what we gotta do".

    Wonder what Harden was alluding to...

    Says that guy that cries about not getting calls in game 1and misses 5 free throws in an elimination game that we lose by 5.

    Harden needs to pipe down and just go do what he normally does in the offseason...... Play pick up games, instead reflecting.

    Maybe this is exactly what Harden had in mind? Bring back the same team that rolled over when they had a path to the Finals?

    Everything is just fine, guys.

    Harden knew we needed nothing

    That's why he was in China instead of recruiting Butler hard like DWade did

    Butler was never coming here.

    He hates it here. That’s been known.

    Do you think James relayed this information to Daryl and the rest of the guys in the front office? Perhaps James' grand plan was to run it back (again) with the same roster?

    The plan was probably to get Jimmy Butler but it didn't work out.

    The coach needs to coach him to move the ball, his body, and take a bit more rest.

    yup, a little more Princeton to mix it up a bit would be great. I don't think MDA has anything left in the tank. when a coach stops calling timeouts and running plays, what is he actually doing?

    Feigen:

    Q: After the playoff exit, when asked what the Rockets need to do next season, James Harden responded that he knew what they had to do. Now after free agency and the roster unchanged, what do you think he meant?

    A: I'm assuming he believed they needed another star. He might have already had Jimmy Butler in mind. Harden did want Butler to join him. It did not work out, but if he had something specific in mind right after Game 6, that could have been it.

    So what you're saying is the Rockets really had no Plan B.

    Despite the fact Harden should have known Butler was just wiggling his ass at him, then leaving him for another suitor—-stupider, less of a future, but sexier.

    Probably just planning a trip into the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. Gotta surpass his limits again.
