    Wouldn't work, we'd have to give up another first rounder for them to absorb Morey's extension...

    Yes do that and we turn around and pick up Ibaka during free agency with that money.
    I would love to see
    westbrook
    harden
    covington
    tucker
    Ibaka

    Gordon is untradeable

    Who would take his contract, and why? He’s an albatross. The one time Tilman opens up his wallet...

    in the past 20 years, there’s only been 3 players on the team I truly couldn’t stand and ended up hating...08-09 T-Mac, Ryan Anderson, and Gordon

    I honestly hate Gordon more than I did Ryno, it’s gotten that bad...I despise watching him play...I hate feeling that way, but it’s true

    HE SUCKS. get paid 17 this year. next year 18 and after that 19 then 20 before his contract ends. Trade this hoe for a bag of chips and go chase ibaka in this year free agency.

    I stand corrected.

    PJ shouldn't throw in ball going forward that was ridiculous.

    @D-rock certainly cant put this on Jeff Green. But now I wonder, he’s bound to have a bad game, what if it happens next game?!?

    Tell me everything is going to be ok. Tell me it’ll be 3-1

    Westbrook might have to come back game 4. I think he might be ready. Take gordon out of starting line up please.

    I love P.J., but his wires get crossed throwing inbounds passes late in games.

    It will he okay.

    OKC won this one by the thinnest of margins.

    Just need to change our closing 5.

    Harden, Westbrook, PJ, RoCo, Green.

    Need our smartest players in clutch time.

    This game should not have been this close but all those fake ace fouls in first half took teeth out of Rockets D.

    You are not alone. I was one of few that crying when we even started negotiations with them; then that contract extension I really did tear up.

    I think not calling a timeout when the rockets up 2 after the cp3 illegal foul cost them the game. Oh well get ready for the next one

    before this season, I could stomach him, but this year, it’s just been too much

    3 more years of this dude might drive me insane

    I hope Morey’s been doing some oppo research on a couple GMs because we’re gonna need major blackmail for somebody to take EG off our hands

    These players are an embarrassment to the “Clutch City” moniker.

    It was a crap contract extension from the start his first contract was his worth. Never be a fan of his because he is injury prone, redundant to our roster and now old. The cap space he takes up should have always been a small forward.

    They sure did give it away.

    Shake it off, on to the next one.
