Didn't do a good enough job for Daryl? Daryl running him out of town too? Or is it Tad Brown's fault?
What we need is a new owner willing to spend some money to make some money. OMG if we have to go over the salary cap.
There's no point in wasting cap room for the sake of spending it. We don't want to end up like Detroit with copious amounts of money tied up on underperforming and aging role players.

same, wtf, if I had known earlier about this I would have applied. Now it's way too late plus I am almost sure that they have already interviewed everybody and applications now won't mean anything. Maybe this fall I can get it. You won't get to go any games during the summer anyway.
This guy invented Guitar Hero, pretty sure none of the other candidates can hold a candle to that. Under his guidance, the Rockets will surely be led back into the promised land!
Do you think Les would take a shot at one of the Van Gundy brothers, very good basketball minds as far coaching goes, could assist in the overall function of the organization.
damn Clutch--you know (mentioned at the conference last year) he was my only shot at getting in with the team! I did some work for him last year over there. There go my future chances.. wonder if he's headed to another team or something
