    I am proud of Moree for showing restraint, it’s like fresh cookies were pulled from the oven and he didn’t eat one!

    Buyout watch time for the best squad in the NBA!

    We need a durable 3rd string center with size. Steven Adams, Zaza & the bigger center will give us problems

    You know Morey was itching to do something. Bet dollars Morey traded 2 dollar menu items for an extra value meal to Thad Brown. Morey does it again.

    So that we get more "DURREL MORY SUX" threads from knee-jerk posters? Hard pass.

    Im really glad Morey stood pat.

    Trading Ryno for garbage just to be able to potentially free cap space this offseason would have been a major mistake.

    Ryno has his faults but he’s a very good rotation piece. The best? Not by a long shot. But some around here act like he’s useless which is insane.

    When Ryno is rolling and fingers crossed that he will Be since he doesn’t have to worry about being traded till the offseason. He really is huge for us offensively.

    If he can get back to 40+% on threes the rockets will be scary even if he’s only playing 20-25 min a night.

    He’s not closing games out so there’s nothing wrong with him playing in the 1st and 3rd quarters. Trust me we could do much worse than Ryno as our 6-7th best player.

    His contract sucks but him as a player does not.

    I'd like for us to add beefy enforcer down low... a younger Nene type player without the restrictions... we dont exactly have a frontcourt thats going to disuade anybody from taking it to the rack with authority...
    I really dont want a repeat of Harden trying to defend the likes of Pau and LMA again...
    doesnt even need to be a regular rotation guy... jus somebody MDA would be willing to put in occassionally to bust heads and draw some fouls...

    Exactly, and in some match ups Tucker is even better than Anderson.

    The reality is that if Anderson isn't shooting 8-10 3's a game, he is not worth a lot to the Rockets. At this point there are better players that deserve the minutes.
