    This. If somehow you find yourself agreeing with the majority of ESPN commenters, you're doing it wrong.

    Actually, if you keep reading the thread there are people commending us for finally tanking.

    More people appreciate our clear direction now. They are just getting their remarks in knowing its coming that losses are coming. Thats what rival teams do.

    Nah probably Morey Only Trolls( who pop up and create ghost accounts) and agree with whatever Morey does, take those comments with a grain of salt

    If anybody believes we came into this offseason looking to blow it up or tank, they probably arent rational

    We came into this offseason looking to get a superstar or blow it up. Anybody that can't see that is irrational.

    When Morey calls other GM's they laugh. It's not just ESPN commenters.

    We're not rebuilding! This isn't all happening because of some super duper plan. Do not confuse deliberately rebuilding with repeatedly failing to accomplish your goals.

    Is it not possible that Morey had more than one plan, and chose not to tell everyone including the media. Something like: Plan A-move up into lottery unless price exceeds X. Plan B-use draft picks, then trade for or sign Player A or B. If that isn't an acceptable deal, Plan C (and what so many of u now whining have been demanding)-REBUILD. Be glad, we've finally picked a direction...but some will NEVER be satisfied. Laugh at the idea of signing AB, but we'll get the price we want, we don't have a PG, and he'll run the floor while all of our young guys learn...and lose. That's how we get a top3 pick. There is NO instant gratification to be had here, so if u can't stand it, check back in 2015 when it's safe to call yourself a fan again.

    We DON'T have a clear direction now... We are making poor decisions in reaction to things not working out.

    If we do tank (I'm still not even convinced Les is willing to commit to tanking) - then it's by de facto, not by choice.

    Clutch is being exeptionally nice parroting the comment to the media from the Rockets' management. The reality is that most of us who pay attention have heard some form of that same phrase for 3+ years.

    If the season started tomorrow and marched out the current roster, I'd be worried.

    We don't play any important games until the end of October...I'll withhold my judgement until then.

    So we traded Rafer alston for lowry and then turned that around into a sure lottery pick. I don't see why everyones so angry.

    DaDakota was right. The Rockets had a plan which had a small chance of being executed and now this is what we are left with.
