The Rockets Diaspora Fallen on Hard Times So Far This Season

Morey's strategy: find an asset, keep it until its value peaks or a big opportunity shows up.

 

At any given moment some teams are less than their sum of talents. Think Lakers. And some teams are equal to the sum of their talents. Last years Rockets. I have a really good idea why teams are less than their sum of talents. I am not sure that they can be greater than their sum of talents though.

 

Yeap, can't forget about Jeremy Lin. After getting cut by Houston, he went on to bag a $25 million salary after starting 25 games. He's helping a team go 8-8 even though they were expected to be the 2nd worst team in the league. Lin seems to be doing well.

 

Lin is invincible against Morey kryptonite.

 

It's not so much of a curse by Daryl Morey, but our GM buying players when they are at a lowel level of cost and then turning around and selling it at their peak of talent! Forget assets, Morey treats his team as if its a stock portfolio! :grin:

 

Lol at people saying the world was over when we got rid of Brooks or Dragic

 

Wow. I'm a huge Lin fan and I forgot Lin was a Rocket before...

 

This franchise has always brought out the best in players. It's the spirit of the franchise that makes us who we are. We don't tank and we compete with role players often as starters. Imagine what this franchise could do with some healthy elite players. I think we're on the right path this time.

 

I credit Adelman for pulling rabbits out of his hat.

 

Goran Dragic is not struggling, he has a mediocre team around him. Lin is young so there is time for improvement, but Dragic would be a substantial upgrade over Lin at the moment, for basically the same contract.

Same can be said for Lowry, although he became a pivotal part of the Harden trade, so no complaints.

Harden> Lee, if i knew Harden was coming Lee would have certainly been expendable.

Scola is the only surprise in my book, i expected him to have a solid year, but given the way the salary cap works cutting him was certainly the smart descision.

The rest of the guys i couldn't care less about losing.

 

Expected to be 2nd worst until Harden showed up.

 

Allen IVERSON just recently driopped 37 on Rafer Alston in china also!! Lmao

 

Here's the link to Iverson dropping 37 on Rafer! http://http://theboxhouston.com/9019798/allen-iverson-drops-37-points-against-rafer-skip-to-my-lou-alston-in-china/

for the rookies see below:

 

also exempt:

 

B/c the homer goggles are now off?
Or maybe we were spot on, calling them a team of overachievers.

 

oh, man, thats bad luck for hill. i hadn't thought of #7.

 

It just shows that Morey is such a mean GM, sending his assets to bad teams.

 

The kings are just bad... They are so hard to watch... But the issue isn't chuck or Aaron... It's the rest of the moronic bunch
