    We now have the two leaders in turnovers on the same team, each of whom essentially plays the same position on offense and plays the same, iso-heavy style.

    Morey’s lost me on this one. He truly doesn’t understand how the top talent of our team should complement each other, not be redundant. Right now, the Rockets are like a band with two incredible guitar soloists who have no ability or interest in comping chords, a drummer who can’t keep steady time and no bass player at all. We talk a lot about chemistry, but the Rockets can’t even manage to put together a complete team - there are gaping holes in our front court and yet we trade for another guard. If someone can name me one team that won a championship with so much redundancy and so many gaps, I’d love to research how the **** they made it work.

    you said the rockets are working on a 3rd team. they're not. whatever okc decides to do with cp3 is on both them at this point, not houston

    Just find it funny the trade this guy pulled and how he is justifying it... Westbrook and Adams for CP3, EG, Capela, and 2 first rounders... haha

    Never thought I’d see fans being ambivalent about trading for an MVP.

    Amico was reporting that they were working to try to get a third team involved. Woj reported otherwise. Either way deal is made. Russ is a Rocket. Wish they could have gotten Miami involved somehow because I would have loved Kelly Olynyk and Winslow here.

    Don’t love the trade. But, I’m going to try to be excited. I have a feeling Russ is going to be one of those guys you hate as an opponent but absolutely love when he’s on our side.

    All I do is shoot threes. I'm like the Daryl Morey of 2K. I'll have to change the way I've played the game for the past 20 years.
