    I would like to say, man are we lucky to have Daryl Morey as our GM. What a great job he has done assembling this talent. Imagine how good this team would be if Yoa was healthy!

    Also what a great coaching job Adelman has done. To have this team playing like this, this late in the season right after trading away two of our rotation players for lesser known talent and not having his best player available all year is amazing. Great job Adelman, great job Morey, great job Houston Rockets.

    LMAO .. when just a few days ago, we wanted to skin 'em alive ...

    yeah, had my doubts but DM once more proves his genius at evaluating talent. Also, if RA enjoys this ast half of the season, I can totally see him coming back. After all, these are all his guys ... and how can he say NO to his pal Brad

    What has happened also? We have our underdog mentality back. We seem to play better with a chip on our shoulders.

    In lieu of Possum, Daryl Morey is going to bang Possum's wife.

    Come on guys, think about it: where, oh where, would we be without the prowess of Daryl Morey right now? The man is a wizard and we should all thank our lucky stars that we have been as mediocre as we have the past few years.


    I mean, seriously. We are LITERALLY JUST LIKE THE OAKLAND A's.....and we all know how successful money-ball has made them.....right? (Ben Sheets, anyone?)

    Money ball FTW, baby! Successful for zero years, and counting! MOREY IS A GOD!

    And handicapped by either Tracy/Yao's injuries or contract every single year. Just wait till all of the remnants of those 2 are gone and watch what he assembles.

    You're right, he has done a wonderful job considering it was nearly IMPOSSIBLE to foresee either ONE of those guys having any injury problems.

    Any team worth their salt would have NO problem going "all in" with healthy players like Yao "Iron" Ming and Tracy "Solid-as-a-Rock" McGrady!

    Touche.



    ...and you're right! Now that he has "full control" he's going to show us all what he's capable of. I imagine Melo, Bosh, CP3, Dwight, Amare....hell, even KOBE will be knocking down the door to work for someone who knows just how to squeeze every bit of value out of a player without actually paying him what he's worth. Players love GM's like that.
