    Pretty much the same for me. If the rockets aren't up by double digits with 5 minutes to go the thunder have a 90% chance to win it. The only chance the rockets have is if the game isn't close.

    That’s what Morey did to scrubs that don’t pan out

    This is what Im talking about .. BE A FAN!!

    Not some passive aggressive, jilted BETA who only wants to be right.

    Root for your team, RIDE OR DIE from the jump .. and if it doesn't work out remember that your life happiness should not be directly linked to an entertainment outlet.

    If the Rockets lose so what? Sun will come up on a beautiful Thursday morning and everyone can transition into b****ing about the Texans.

    Sports Life in Houston. Yeeeesh!

    We'll see what he can do with WB this offseason then.

    I'm scared Morey won't make it, especially if CP3 deletes us from the playoffs. Mike and Daryl are awesome, here's to hoping they are here for the long haul.

    Honestly, it doesn't matter. Neither of these teams are going anywhere

    So in 48 hrs they have decided and found a good trade for Westbrick?! That's a win for me! Get that Chucker out of here...

    lol you westbrook is moving? i don't think so
    1. he's a real star (tilman needs stars to make money)
    2. he's Harden's friend
    3. Morey , not worried about his job, MDA , his job is on the line (look at all the rumors already popping up)

    Championships and winning make money! Westbrick is a sinking rock as well as this organization under Tilman... who makes me miss Les who I can not stand!

    I agree I don't he goes anywhere unless we get super lucky and some freak opportunity shows up.

    Yes MDA is in more jeopardy then Daryl, but this team isn't going to get any better...and once Mike is gone, and we're still underperforming, I think we all know who Tilly will move on to throwing under the bus next.

    We don't have control over our picks until 2027, Tucker is 35, Gordon is totally ******** the bed after a massive extension, 31 y/o WB's half amazing part relies purely on his athleticism. Morey can only do so much with shuffling around vet mins and midseason buyouts. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Morey resigned for a fresh start, this team was totally botched by Harden and Tilly.

    I'm with you. Way more important things in life even though it HURTS to lose...just for the evening.

    I think our guys cut the turnovers down and win this game by 15+

    i realize that we are WIN NOW MODE, that's why I think we should go after Cassell.
    He's been good for developing guards and making things guard friendly.

    SGA was developed by Sam. And he's killing us.

    Man....if Harden could just call up Lillard right now, I would be on board for next season.

    Gun to my head I'm picking Hou after seeing the first 6 games. Houston is still the better team honestly. Game 7 I gotta go with the trend of every home team winning plus the team with the better players.

    Harden and WB are what they are, there isn't a whole lot coaching can do at this point, there is no player to be developed here.

    MDA was amazing in developing Harden, MDA is the perfect coach for our system, the team just isn't good enough. We saw what MDA could do in 17-18, deliver us our best regular season in history, and took us to the brink of knocking off arguably the GOAT team.

    18-19 we cheaped out on Trevor, cheaped on Luc (although he went on to break down with injuries), and Nene broke down on us. All of those players were gigantic contributors to our defense. We didn't replace any of them. Tilly refused to go into lux tax, instead brought in a scrub train of Melo, MCW, Shumpert, and Ennis at the cost of a 1st round pick.

    Tilman ruined the 18-19 team, and then Harden helped Tilman doom us with the WB deal.

    We have completely abandoned the mid range and post up game for our guards.
    If the Clippers win the championship, then Sam can add a championship ring as an assistant coach.

    As I mentioned in the other part of the forum.
    People here can't talk crap about ultra billionaires and complain about our poor ass billionaire.

    Yeah, I know people hate Jeff Bezos, but if he owned the Rockets, he could pay the luxury tax of multiple nations.
    he can have an entire bench of Trevor Arizas.
