    I'm not stopping you from having your fantasy dude.

    get NBA2K and put Harden and Chris Paul on the same team and turn of the 'I hate my teammate' simulator
    Hamstrings = 100%

    You can also set the coaching to NO ADJUSTMENTS, and it's just like the real team

    Your dumbass wouldnt know what an adjustment was even if it hit you in the face.

    LOL you make other "99ers" look bad. You dont have any class bro and honestly you're a shameful Houstonian as well.

    this scrub team almost did that the other day when they went 4-45 from 3

    if they were to miss 27 straight threes, as a proud member of the tank squad, I’ll allow it

    this sorry team has already quit on the season anyways

    MDA didn’t get it done and has his flaws, but I still have love for him...he’s a great guy...it’s a shame he couldn’t secure his legacy here with a title in 2018

    2018 is 1 of the biggest what ifs ever

    I'm encouraging you to celebrate your D'Antoni fandom!

    Maybe ask the DJ to play a song from Whitney HOUSTON

    I am NOT discouraging people to celebrate Mike D'Antoni.
    Don't have a hernia like the other posters here.

    This song is great when you think of the D'Antoni Era.

    I know we lost to the Warriors in the playoffs

    Maybe you are confusing the VIDEO GAME ROCKETS VS THE REAL HOUSTON ROCKETS

    @J.R.

    You are still mad about that team that lost to the Warriors at Toyota Center in a game 7 .

    I know you want Chris Paul's hamstring to be healthy.

    So I got a great idea.
    Go to the Humane Society and adopt a puppy. Take the puppy to the vet to get all his shots.
    Name the puppy Chris Paul's Hamstring.

    The vet will tell you that Chris Paul's Hamstring is healthy.

    I know you like to pretend Mike D'Antoni won some championships or at least got to the finals.

    This is great dude, that means you have an imagination.

    It's like you are Yoko Ono singing a John Lennon Song.

    Imagine all the 3 pointers
    actually going in
    in-innn

    you can say i'm a championship level coach
    cause i'm not really one
    someday I can win a title
    cause right now I have none

    Mike D'Antoni is a good coach and a good person.

    I don't believe he is a championship coach, however. There are a lot of things i disliked about his approach to timeouts and adjustments.

    Popovich, who i think is the best coach in the NBA, approaches timeouts and adjustments completely different and he is indeed a championship level coach.

    I know Mike had some sort of statistic that said that timeouts don't change a thing but i think it's about the things you say.

    From playing the spurs i feel like timeouts definetely do something for them.

    Funny if the crew comes back in a couple of years. I understand how James wanted to be under the same coach/system that he already was accustomed to plus 2 other bonafied all stars. Plus broke Tillman had to re-up.

    “Deep Dumbtoni Thoughts...

    Ok, deep down inside I’m a softy for people who show respect for HTOWN!! ;)

    I still think his system was gimmicky, he mismanaged time an was a black hole as far as developing young players, BUT since he wants to be my future neighbor, I’ll let bygones be bygones!

    I hope he gets into the Hall of Fame and he gets a championship (AFTER THE ROCKETS)....

    There I said it!


    Go Rockets!!!
