    you must think it is easy to get a point guard, he tried to get Dragic but he didn't want to come here

    how would you know what Morey is thinking...

    i'm sick of fans who think trades are easy to do

    This is a really specific and weird thing to say. I'm sure Morey wants the Rockets to do well in the postseason. I don't agree with all his moves and think extending McHale may prove to be a terrible decision, but I'm sure he is doing what he thinks is right.

    Harris has gone cold in the 4th quarter in so many games.

    I think that's pretty insulting. He doesn't care just because he wasn't able to acquire Dragic? Are you willing to give substantial assets for a rental?

    This team isn't designed to make up for the absence of Howard for long stretches of time. They didn't make a move which i guess means Howard is close but for the people thinking we could win off McFail's coaching should be more realistic. As long as we don't slide too much in the standings once we get Howard back everything picks up. Harden isn't easy to stop but he's easier to contain when no one can make a shot, Howard makes this team complete. I wouldn't mind sliding to about six and playing Portland or the Clippers with a healthy Howard

    I can't believe we wasted Dorsey's one good game this year on a loss to the Mavs. He's been to Europe, wised up, maybe he'll play two good games this year.

    Stopped watching minutes into the second quarter. Didn't like what i saw. Decided to watch John Wick instead. Still upset bout the lack of trades

    I feel so much better knowing that we had other teams suck just as badly as we did. That really balances things out for me. We.are not. getting a 3rd or 4th seed with what is on the floor for us right now. You can believe that. I am a 45 year Rockets fan....love them, watch them every game BUT this team is not going to have a home court advantage this year. Hope I'm wrong....it's going to be very tight in the West...a 6th or 7th wouldn't surprise me.

    Right on the money with that. As much as I have seen D12 look less than 100%, our defense was elite with him. Need to see this team with a 100% Dwight because everyone else are complimentary players.

    Harden needs more help
    Ariza and Bev cant make up for what Parsons used to provide for us
    and we need a big who can play some defense(asik) for when Howard is down.
    Wish Asik and Parsons were still here...

    Then his quota is up! LOL

    His 1st good game was vs MEM at home. Remember the block that led to the follow-up dunk. Man, I thought that was the start of good things, but naah ...

    So this is his 2nd.

    I thought that was what the trade deadline was for--to get reinforcements.

    Morey must have not gotten the memo on that.

    I say throw Papanikolau out there as Point guard. He's the only one who can make a pass into the post worth a damn anyway and he has good instincts about the game.

    Better than Bev at least.

    YES, a hundred times YES! I didn't want to pay him max this summer. I will let him go this summer.

    So Harden's MVP year does not go to waste.

    So future FAs will see we'll do everything to put out a competitive roster.

    So Harden knows he can trust the organization wants to win.

    Now we have the same old, same old ...

    Two first rounds picks and D-Mo and salary filler is alot for a rental. Plus no 7 footer.
