Thread for those of us that are still #dine with this squad.

Only 4 good players on this team: harden, Paul, Capela, Gordon.

Any one of those guys don’t play and the team struggles.

This team as a whole is seriously flawed. There’s no depth, Anderson sucks, nene is old, jo chee needs time to develop, Tucker is fat as hell.

 

Lettuce get healthy first. We're without 2 rotation players, and have semi another.

We're still at best 2nd best in L and conference. So yes, I'm hodling.

If the Rockets are healthy in the playoffs they have a 20-25% chance of beating Golden State. The Warriors have health issues with Curry and Green. If Curry or Durant are hurt they will have issues in the post season.

Will the Rockets be healthy in the playoffs? No guarantees but they will likely be careful with Paul down the stretch.

 

Go find another team. All you do is b**** and moan and come up bizarre scenarios of the Rockets passing on a Paul George trade.

 

I’m just not a delusional fan like most here that thinks they can beat GSW in the playoffs.

And there were talks of Paul George getting traded. I did not come up with that trade.

I simply pointed out that a trade like that would close the gap against the Warriors, but people here are so blind that they wouldn’t trade a role player for a star.

 

Weird ****er!

 

Did Harden really yield us the CFs, though?

- He was sitting during the Comeback.
- Paul DNP'd two games, and was probably < 80%

Harden's two biggest flaws are 1) defense and 2) clutch ability.

If he improves one of those... huge Yay.

 

Dine indeed

 

We good

We just need to blow it up and trade everyone starting with Harden.

Hehe

na, we good.
Just as Mike said as we were rolling on our win streak, we gonna encounter some bumps along the way. Good that is right now and not playoff time.

Also good that Harden will know or hopefully learns that he shouldn’t be pushing people off. Even if many players do it he should know by now that the refs seem to have it out for him or he should just think that way and be smart about it. Hopefully by playoffs he doesn’t get as bother by close defenders or annoyed by no calls.


When he plays his game he is unstoppable. Also when we move the ball and play team ball we are unstoppable

 

if we our 8-man rotation is at full force and $20M RA's living up to 75% of his contract and hitting his 3s we're unstoppable.

For the past 4 losses prior to this one,

RA's averaging 1.5 made 3s (33%) and less than 10 pts a game and less than 7 rebs per game
while Tucker's avging 1 made 3 a game (40%)
and LMA been out all 4 games

harden is averaging 41 mins, 41 pts, 40% from 3, 10 assists, 5 rebs per game - his decisions at the end of Boston game was real bad
Ego is averaging 23 pts a game, 40% from 3
32 year-old Ariza is averaging 42 mins a game, 37% from 3

and Paul & Cap only playing 1 of those 4 games separately

Weber & green getting minutes

Depth -> minimize fatigue -> minimize injuries -> injury insurance -> more weapons/options on offense -> more energy/options on defese

 

We gonna be okay...As far as getting the second seed

 

For those of you who love to regurgitate that they need to get healthy, this means that if they miss a player in the playoffs they are goners right? That’s what your logic means...

 

Warriors just lost to the Hornets.

**** happens.

5-game losing streaks happen.

Unless the Houston Rockets become the Albuquerque Rockets or St. Louis Rockets or (anything other than Houston) Rockets, I'm in.

 

Shiettt, I'm #feasting NOW, tbh. Feasting on L's.

 

yeah its on Morey & MDA to improve our depth

 

Thunder lost to.

 

Were an elite team. Bump in the road.

 

I legit have never felt like we we're legit contenders since the championship years until now. Yao/McGrady was nice but I never felt like we we're going to do it with that team. It's a long season....we'll flip the script soon enough and when everyone starts calling us pretenders again we're going to be ripping teams a new ******* nightly.

 

All we need to do is get our healths back and trade for Justin Verlander. I saw this movie already.
