    Sorry to hear about that. I'd assume Olympiacos games would be pretty professionally handled but I'm guessing you aren't just around the block from there.

    reg. Morey direction changes-

    Yeah I agree that Morey should have changed directions, and I would have made the same moves if I was GM. I wanted Lawson as much as anyone, but boy was I wrong.

    But then again, there is no reason why we can't learn from what we now know, and change directions again. I think Morey trusting what made him successful from the get go is the direction to take honestly. That sounds simple enough, but its not. He's got to be in charge of getting the guys that he trusts in, and where he's done his homework. All of the players he put together to build around T-Mac and Yao.... (with the exception of Artest) those weren't accidental high BBIQ, and high character players he put together.

    Harden is going to be Harden, but Morey has shown he can control everything else around his stars to complement, and provide stability. I think we've learned alot about Harden more than anyone in this early season, and if there is some silver lining to the sucktatude it will hopefully be that Morey was able to learn this about Harden, and prepare for control in Harden's second act as a Houston Rocket.

    What's the news story here - the authors basically says that based on Dwight's unhappiness with the direction, he may ask for a trade. Is that a news story.

    Dwight is unhappy with the team's direction - of course, we are losing. So is everyone else on the roster. Did anyone think he was happy about it?

    Dwight may ask for trade...but he may not - literally anyone on the team "may" ask for a trade but unless someone says it, you don't report that someone DEMANDS TO BE TRADED. That's just janky click baiting.

    heh I'm not an Olympiacos fan. I "hate" them more than any here hate the Mavs. But they are definitely worms and criminals in their "fan"base too.

    I think that Morrey should have been more all in and trade our first NOP pick for I.T. He has a good contract and he would be perfect off the bench. But that NOP pick was definitely projected to be in the lottery and so it would be an overpay. Anyway noone is perfect.
    I don't know what lessons we can learn about Harden except that he can't or is willing to play off the ball. Because if there are other lessons that Morrey has learned about Harden...they are not fixable. Character and work ethic..These are things a GM has to live with he can't fix them if the player won't on his own.

    様々な兆しは、ハーデンはあまりに利己的な選手は、リーダーの気質を備えないと心が、なかなか完成優勝大願より、このお得な時、取引して、建設、ハワードを中心とした

    They aren't doing much better than we are. Man those words tasted wrong coming out of my mouth. Cousins is leaving after his contract is up anyway. Might as well trade him before they get nothing.

    They can get a hell of a lot for Cousins than Dwight. Cousins for Harden, probably. Cousins for Dwight, nope. Note, I'm not saying Harden for Cousins is a good trade for the Rockets. It isn't. I'm just saying that's what it would take.

    I think some first round draft picks would do it

    Howard is the guy who's out there busting his ass trying to help the team win while other guys chuck up stupid shot after stupid shot, never box anyone out. Routinely get beat off the dribble and expose DH on the defensive side. Its 1 v 5 alot of times when Dwight is in there. Guys cant make an entry pass to save their lives. Still lazy bounce passing.

    I wouldnt blame Dwight for asking out. Dude wants to win and his play shows that.

    ドワイト・ハワードではなくハーデンと季節の別のカップルを演じるよりも、タコスまで彼のお尻を突き出すでしょうか?

    I love the undiluted Google translations of these.

    I mean, classic.

    Various signs is , Harden is too selfish player , mind and does not include the temperament of the leader , when quite than complete victory Daigan , that this deals , in trading , construction , with a focus on Howard.

    Rather than play another couple of Harden and seasonal rather than Dwight Howard , what shove his ass up to tacos ?
