Congratulations to the Rockets organization on the successful trade deadline!

I wish someone would Paint a mustache, a goatee, and a pair of empty eyes on that ugly visage.

 

We never tanked since before Yao. 15 year is really not hat long in basketball terms. Nobody is blaming one guy. He definitely is the main reason though.

What you claim is bull because as soon as I point out how Harden couldn't get it done you guys cry he didn't have any help but fail to mention he ran everyone off. Apparently second place is commendable here. Not to be a smart but a total smart ass the excuse is what it's always has been even before Harden got here. "Refs/NBA" Have it out for Rockets. " Lol Harden didn't change anything. Just make a little clout for himself here.

 

FWIW, the Rockets were already $2 million *below* the luxury tax threshold BEFORE the Oladipo trade, so this wasn’t about avoiding the tax. Sure, it lowered team salary by another $2.5 million of so (and actual payroll by $1 million), but luxury tax was not an issue.

Unfortunately, there will be adjustments to the calculation of luxury tax payments for this season due to the pandemic, so teams will end up owing far less than they would based on the traditional calculations. Based on my calculation, the payout to non-tax paying teams will end up being just shy of $3 million per team. Still nothing to sneeze at, though.

 

Joe's Crab shack advertised itself to be a better alternative to McDonald's and Burger King, but the underwhelming seafood, some rotten, was an hypocrisy.

 

Just another idiotic post with no original thought. You’re just fishing for likes by mentioning Tilman and the luxury tax. The Rockets were already below the luxury tax before the trade. And even if they were over, you’d have to be r****ded to pay luxury tax on one of the worst teams in the league.

 

It’s also r****ded to pay tax when you have a mvp harden in his prime and a 65 win team. Cool story

 

I wish Tilman was right beside Watson when he was getting those massages....
