    Presti had three, count 'em, three MVPs and has zero NBA championships to show for it.

    I don't expect anything special from them. 4/5/6 seed, out in first round.

    Morey still hasn’t gotten past the WCF.

    Morey is that "come on; do something" meme for the past few years. Dude is spending too much time stroking his own ego on Twitter than he is actually getting big trades done. Cheap idiot really thinks this roster is good enough to contend with all of these good teams.

    Running into a team with 3-5 all-stars and 6moy sucks.

    It’s still no excuse for not being able to win a game 7 at home. AT HOME! 0-27

    I don’t buy that at all. I’m going to bed, though. I bet Morey isn’t. Goodnight.

    I would say losing CP3 was a huge factor. Could we have won? Yes. Should we have won? Probably, but you knew about the high variance from bulk 3pt shooting long before Game 7.

    Morey tore a hamstring and missed 27 three pointers in a row? Morey blew two double digit leads in the second half after winning 3 games against the Warriors?
    I mean, I know complaining about the Rockets is your thing, but Morey (and Presti) are great (if not perfect) GMs. They have a great track record.

    Morey didn’t have 3 top 5 picks consecutively. Stop playin

    it’s better than him going to the Lakers imo.. Rockets are in the mix in an open west. Do they need to improve to strengthen their chances? Of course.

    Maybe. But no, it’s not good for the Rockets. Him staying in Toronto is what would have been good.

    Didnt George have a shoulder surgery a month ago?
    Also Kawhi looked limping after the finals and will be on load managment.
    How are people saying that its worse than Kawhi joining the Lakers?

    Our goal is to win a championship.
    Its better if there are more good teams than a monster team with 3 MVPs blocking our way till Hardens prime is over.

    If any of you are feeling down about the Rockets, head over to the Lakers reddit and chow down. Most delicious tears I've tasted in years.
