    Why stink one year when you can stink for a decade, right?

    Last thing I want from this team is to return to the pre-Harden days of hard team basketball, but no superstar talent. That's a one-way trip to 40 wins per year and endless mediocrity.

    If Green and/or Sengun are those superstars, great! If not, I'd rather we shoot our shot in the lotto one last time before we lose our picks.

    What....I'm thinking of 20 wins and 20 losses at the 40 games mark.

    Who cares about play in. We want the top seed. Only 13 games behind with 61 games to go.

    Go Rockets!

    Doubt we'll make it anywhere near the play-in in all honesty, but I'll take all the wins we can get. Nobody's going to learn to play well if we deliberately throw games, that just teaches players how to be losing ass b****es. If we make the play-in ahead of schedule then awesome, I just doubt it'll happen.

    I don’t mind losses. In fact, I want losses more than wins. Just show that you are learning something from them. Even though last night was a win against the lowly Thunder, it at least appeared that they had the right players out there to finish the game. I’m afraid it will all come crashing down once Green is healthy, though.
