    there's a strong chance this is correct.

    Sort of is.

    This has more merit than the defensive thread.

    If Dwight had his happy face on, and got along. We wouldn't have this one year that's literally made EVERYONE view us so negatively. If we came off the high of a WCF year, we could've gotten Durant.

    So, with that said, this thread has more merit.

    The dwightmare curse strikes again. No team is the same after he leaves. He literally gives teams herps

    It is because Durant was more likely to come here if Dwight stayed

    I blame it on Serge disappearing in the playoffs. Had he not, OKC beats GSW.

    The rockets go 54 wins and make it to the second round

    I don't think any team besides GSW gave him the confidence that he could get a ring.

    Sign with Bos/Spurs/Hou, sure, but you still have to beat the Warriors. He's just eliminated his biggest obstacle by joining it.

    Nope. Not Dwight. DMo. DMo's butt-sweat specifically.

    DMo's butt-sweat caused Curry's injury and Warriors' loss at the Finals, thus giving KD the permission slip to sign with GSW without looking like a complete front-runner.

    He told Beverley to go for the steal on Westbrook before the timeout

    It would not look so bad .. . . if KD and OKC didn't have a 3-1 lead on the warriors
    and simply gave away the series

    Hell . . at this point. . . my conspiracy theory light is beginning to glow

    Can't begrudge a man for wanting to win, but damn, I liked what OKC was doing, and they were close! I'm not gonna lie; I lost respect for KD.

    I obviously would take him in a heart beat and he would be talky somthing playing next to harden who's a better playmamer than Durant so maybe it would look better but my first choice is still Paul George.

    I'm
    Not a fan of westbrook I don't think you can win a chip of he's your primary playmaker. I think if he played off harden maybe it could work, but who knows if he would do that.

    What all rockets fans need to hope for is Clint Capela turning into a top 5 center this coming season and putting up 15/12/3blks. If he does that it makes the rockets a lot better looking FA destination next year and maybe we can sign blake Griffin and russ westbrook/cp3.

    Russ/bev
    Harden/Gordon
    Ariza/brew
    Griffin/Anderson
    Capela/FA center

    That's a team that can compete for chips. Can it beat GS? I would still favor GS but that houtson team would have more athletes and better bench. I don't know how the cap looks next year but with harden Gordon being paid under 16 mil next offseason I think we might have enough cap space to Land two max or close to max FAs.

    That team has some serious fire power on offense and could be a very good defensive team also.

    Harrison's fault for rejecting the 16m per year offer
