    Did James Harden dissappear this year, or are you Max Kellerman?

    "Never calling him?" Hadn't it literally been less than 24 hours?

    Okay he personally doesn’t want to do business with an ass. That is his right.

    I felt disrespected by D'Antoni's inability to create more than a one-dimensional offense and any sort of serious defensive culture on the team, so I guess nobody's happy.

    I didn't even think about Tim Duncan. He was basically being coach out there with the team. He would probably be closest person to Popovich. We need less ego on this team.

    So you're happy with going absolutely nowhere every playoff? Most fans aren't satisfied with this revolving door culture Morey's created. When we fail to get past the 2nd next year, will you celebrate?

    i don’t know much about his coaching style/philosophies etc.

    But in terms of a guy that should demand respect without even having to say anything - be it to the players, the organization, refs, etc. can’t get much better.

    I will be happy If we are consistently in the playoffs with a relatively decent chance to win compared to 30 other teams, yes.

    I won’t be happy If we go sign tall players because they are tall, der-der-DER!!!

    I love D'antoni I really do but come the F on?! After the way the team performed he really was lucky to not get that phone call! Last year too! Disrespected? I'm not saying Tilman is a good owner but Tilman just handed him the keys to his New used Ferrari and he crashes it. Second round Last year and this. He's probably pissed as should all owners be. If D'Antoni was getting minimum wage plus tips hell all of us could understand but he makes more than a F' ton of Houstonians and probably alot more than anyone who works for a Tilman owned business. An exec chef makes how much at a Landry's? Ya... D'antoni can take his tube of vagisil and his 100's of dollars and wipe his crying vagina with them. No wonder some of our guys play soft as Charmin!

    So you're satisfied with mediocrity for the next 10 years. We're not winning no damn championships under Morey, so why not just blindly support okay regular seasons & disappointing post-season performances year after year. In Morey we trust

    Maybe one potential good thing about this pandemic is that the losses might (MIGHT) make Tilman consider selling the team...

    ...

    ... Maybe?

    Not happening. Tilman will turn Toyota Center into a casino and fill it with Strippers before that ever happens. Then he'll hire a bunch of G leaguers to fill the roster and pay them with Landry vouchers.
