    That 6 game winning streak was so damn pointless in hindsight. F****ed up our tank standings.

    I disagree. Trading Westbrook was the right move. I feel better about having Wall on the team than Westbrook plus we got an extra FRP. Cousins signed a nonguaranteed minimum contract...it's a risk worth taking. Christian Wood was probably one of the best free agent signings of all teams this offseason. He is a star in the making and a key player for the team. Jae'Sean Tate! What a find! Plays defense, plays offense. Very poised. Plus we signed him on a min contract. Brown is a good bench player. Nwaba good defensive player. The team actually did a good job this offseason. We really didn't have much to work with. We managed to get a potential all-star and 3 rotational players on great value contracts. We are in a position where we can trade for more pieces. We're not close to winning a chip but there is potential for the team to do well in the near future

    somebody really told me they’d rather have ball movement and lose, than ISO ball and win...this is how some people think

    so backwards

    Rockets don’t even move the ball post-Harden anyways

    Better than that first unit that gave up 19 points.

    They were a negative on the court but Silas played them almost all of 2nd and half of 3rd.

    I don't know what you're talking about. You're saying I preferred what again? I'm talking about you mocking 'Ball movement' over and over again as if that's a bad thing.

    The only delusional ones are the people that are mad at fans from moving on from Harden when he moved on from the team. He quit on the team, wasn't going to play another minute from the team, you trying to scold people for realizing this fact is what's delusional. He's gone, you pining for ISOball again isn't bringing him back.
