So bucks lost last year 1-4 Giannis has been choking in hte line even this year PJ tucker is over 35 and scores 0 those are the guys you would be saying are 'proven' not to win with your elementary mindset then next year, magic happened...its almost like if you take a swing and are a contender, playoff margins anything can happen unless you are rooting for an owners finances, since thats the only benefit of the moves you seem to root for, then yea you're all about A championship, but a budget championship imagine milwaukee fans right now...boy I love this ring, but I really wish we did it with better margins or we didn't get PJ bc he scored 0 so we coudv'e won with out him, I do hope Larsy still got his platinum lining on his yacht:/ Brotha, the Chinese Les era came and seemd to have rubbed off on you. Those CcP would LOVE your bootlcking, you could get a position in china leadership. go for it. Root on the beijing ducks and root for their owner to save money adn not spend on players if you deem them to have a bad game.
Can anyone besides a 99er what business Les was in before the Rockets? It’s obvious Tilman is in the food business and he’s going to promote it
Tinman is the dude going to his favorite restaurant which just got new ownership. The new owner came in and cheaped out on a lot of the quality, watered down the drinks, and is sitting in the corner back table counting his cash and checking the papers to see where he can be more 'efficient'. @tinman then proceeds to scream at the old manager whose been there about these changes and how they are becoming a bad team, walks out angrily and gives the owner a high five in the corner....he gets back in his car, looks at his chinese flag and says..its never the dear leaders fault. and another elementary understanding of team building. Why did PJ tucker play center.... "And that was the one thing that Morey never really had. According to the cap numbers at Spotrac, which go back to the 2010-11 season, the Rockets barely went over the luxury tax (just $3.65 million over) in their one season (2015-16) as a taxpayer. The Warriors spent $49.63 million in penalties over the last five seasons, while even the small-market Thunder spent $33.73 million. There was no excuse for Houston to not open up the checkbook. This is a franchise located in the fourth-biggest metro area in the U.S. that has had a superstar in the prime of his career. Alexander sat on his hands while Houston’s rivals went all in, counting on Morey’s ability to use advanced statistics to turn water into wine. This refusal to spend money became farcical once Alexander sold the team to Tilman Fertitta in 2017. Fertitta spent so much money ($2.2 billion) to purchase the Rockets that he may not have had the liquidity to go into the red to build a title contender. Houston was a laughingstock around the league for the amount of juggling it had to do to stay under the tax. The best example came at the trade deadline last season, when Morey used a future first-round pick to shed the salaries of Brandon Knight and Marquese Chriss. There was no basketball reason for the move. It was just done to cut costs. It’s not that Knight and Chriss would have helped the Rockets. But there were certainly a lot of better things that Morey could have used that pick for. Houston also spent that season in a bizarre staring contest with Danuel House Jr. House is the kind of diamond in the rough that Morey routinely uncovered in Houston, an undrafted free agent on a two-way contract who would become a starting-caliber wing. The problem was that players on those deals can spend only 45 days with the NBA team during the season before their contracts have to be converted. Money in Houston was so tight that Morey had to send House back to the G League when he wouldn’t sign a below-market long-term deal. He replaced House with two players he signed off the street (Gerald Green and Kenneth Faried) before bringing him back right before the playoffs. It’s not like House was asking for the world. He signed a three-year, $11 million contract in the offseason. But even that was more than Morey could offer at the time. Houston’s limited financial flexibility became an even bigger issue last season after the trade for Westbrook. With the team’s two best players costing a combined $76.7 million, it became almost impossible for Morey to fill out the roster while staying under the luxury tax. Morey and head coach Mike D’Antoni had to conjure up production from players other teams didn’t want. Jeff Green went from being cut by the Jazz to being a crucial piece of the Rockets’ small-ball attack in the playoffs. It was the same story with Austin Rivers, who had been on three teams in five seasons before landing in Houston, and Ben McLemore, who had one foot out of the NBA before the Rockets turned him into a 3-point sniper. All were more valuable in Houston than anywhere else in the league because Morey identified what they could do well and put them in roles that didn’t ask them to do much else.
Yea, that business or related is now on a large ****ing white patch on the corner of our jerseys for all to see I'm here all night folks Also you can also say I will spend when Jimmy butler comes, or I'm waiting for the repeater tax...waitng..waiting...lol hey but there are still snake oil salesman in thsi world bc there are still idiots who will buy it. @tinman you'd love it in China or Orlando. You can be the magic new amway style of selling bullshit right from the top
not from time to time and not a cheat day. here he says he eats a bag of frozen pizza rolls everyday:
He doesn't need to be on the ****ing Nick Caserio diet. Only psychotic people are that disciplined and NEVER eat unhealthy. Life is about balance. A plate of fried chicken and fries is not going to give you DM2, HTN, or Obesity. (That being said, sure, this shouldn't be breakfast, lunch, and dinner like Jonathan Joseph and Chad Johnson used to pull)
Okay fair. Not great. Obviously they need to work with him on his diet. Some people are just genetic freaks though, and somehow stay fit eating nothing but trash (i.e. Jonathan Joseph & Chad Johnson). I'd still prefer him to gain bulk in a more natural way so hopefully the Rockets strength and conditioning staff will get him on some healthier flavors.
When Hakeem first started playing ball in the US, we put him on a diet of BBQ and ice cream to bulk him up. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
whoa whoa whoa, bro... all this real-world talk, you're gonna crack the CF frame of reference- don't you recognize frail and limited when you see it?
