    Morey is an abomination, idiot shouldve never been allowed to run a team. We need a guy who has game experience and can relate to players. And not relate more to unathletic chess clubs.

    Morey gots ta go.

    Dang it's crazy around here. If Cyber come here and say those same exact words people would be praising and giving him his props. But SAS whose a known source with all types of connections is getting blasted on here.

    Man cyberx already told us things was all messed up.

    But let's blast SAS for confirming the crazy **** that's going on with the Rockets.

    We have not been very successful during Morey's tenure with first round draft picks with exception to DMo and we tried to trade him. I don't see Morey trying to throw games to get better position in the draft with his draft history. He is more of acquire talent through trades and outright signings type of guy.

    SAS is also a known big mouth spewing opinions without thinking. Listen to him. He did not claim that he knew this because of insider info. He based his claim on how we lost to the Suns. It's an opinion. Not a piece of knowledge.

    SAS - True or Not, I don't care

    He is full of it. Don't care about his opinion, even if I agree with it sometimes. I am a Rockets fan, and don't believe he is reporting as an unbiased reporter when the Rockets are the topic.

    He thinks that if you don't have 20 years of experience in sports journalism, your opinion doesn't matter. Even though he's one of the most ignorant and least insightful "analysts" I've ever heard.

    Why bother trying to tank? Just let the team play, they usually find a way to mess things up themselves.

    Besides that, if JBB were a white coach, SAS wouldn't have chimed in about this situation at all. The only reason he cares is because he thinks JBB was given a raw deal (which is true). He always talks about how JBB has been doing a great job since taking over for McHale. He's grasping for straws for anything that lets JBB off the hook. I don't blame JBB either, I think he's a victim here. Just explaining the motivations of SAS.
