    Fantastic article. Would love to see the day to day operations of Morey. I just cant wait what he'll do with the max space and what type of bull dog players he'll surround Harden going forward

    McHale is not below average FYI.

    This team with all it's youth is years ahead of schedule and being 20-14 in a stacked western conference is very impressive.

    We are legit title contenders with a superstar type at PF and a few more vets off the bench

    I guess this is why the Rockets get mentioned in every single trade rumor.

    Are you kidding? McHale is a really good coach.

    As well they should.

    You can't succeed if you don't try, and the Rockets try as much as any team in the league.

    As the expression goes...If at first you don't succeed, try, try, try again

    Not true. Lebron won his first championship last year and he has been the best player in the league for years.

    Yeah, in other sports, it's always a team of scrubs that beats the moneyed, star-laden teams.

    Two years?? That's it!? I'd hope Les keeps Morey UNTIL it works. I'd hate to see Morey does his magic on another team, ever.
