    This is actually a pretty telling quote. Shows how disconnected Morey is from MDA. Either that or he’s just checked out.

    MDA runs 8 man rotations in the regular season, but is going to run a 10 man rotation in the playoffs? And who all does that include? Tyson Chandler? Thabo Sefolosha?

    Lmaoooo

    Doesn’t matter if he has 10 he will only play 7.

    Nor should he be until he can stop being liability on defense.

    10?
    1. Harden
    2. Westbrook
    3. Tucker
    4. Gordon
    5. Covington (I guess)
    6. Rivers
    7. House (like we have other option left)
    8. Sefolosha
    9. McLemore
    10. Chandler

    I guess these are the 10

    You’re being far too generous. How is Thabo trustworthy? Experience doesn’t necessarily make you reliable if you’re old and not the player you once were.

    Even if MDA was coaching the Dream Team he still would have a 8 man rotation.
    Possibly even 7.

    MDA is going to run his usual 6.5 to 7 man rotation in the playoffs.

    Morey needs to STFU. Dude talks a big game and we always come up short.

    Other teams don’t like him. Don’t doubt they’ve cut discussions short just to spite him and make sure a rockets deal doesn’t go through unless it makes them worse.

    Remember MDA had first round exits in the playoffs in his last days with the Phoenix sun's.

    Hope rockets fare better with small ball than Phoenix in the last days of MDA in Houston : /

    We could have a roster of 15 all stars and MDA would only play 7 of them.

    Dantoni is going to find a reason to play 7 guys.


    Believe that. Like a true story.
