    Too bad the tanking process had much higher rewards in odds for doing so back then.

    Which is more embarrassing as a franchise, The Rockets or Texans? Both have underwhelming owners.

    It's actually difficult to lose this many in a row, if it's a concerted effort I have to give them props.

    D'Antoni -better situation now than with Tillman
    Harden-better situation now than with Tillman
    Tucker-better situation now than with Tillman
    Morey - definitely better situation now than with Tillman.. like at 10 million dollars better situation...

    This is probably what it feels like to work for Landrys.

    Do you think Patrick will be a better GM than Stone?

    B as in Bull. S as in ****. Makes perfect sense, but the scent is horrific.

    Yeah, we broke our record, but are the Rockets bad enough dudes to take it up a notch and beat the 2012 Charlotte Bobcats for worst 1-year span for an NBA team?

    In calendar 2012 the Bobcats had losing streaks of 23, 18 and 16 (in both the 2011-12 and 2012-13 seasons), for a record of 13-80 over that time.

    They also drafted Michael Kidd-Gilchrist at #2 in 2012 and Cody Zeller at #4 in 2013.

    Now that's a professional tank job.

    Patrick is the most powerful person within the organization! He 's the reason why Stone was moved up to GM without consulting Harden or anyone. He probably helped pick the coach. He's already is the president of basketball operations, GM, and one of the major reasons this team is as great as it is. I'm sure his face is on the mural somewhere in Toyota Center!
