Just opening a thread to capture a consensus on a number of criticisms you see posted in other threads. To some extent all of these choices are common themes but what does CF think is THE single biggest weakness of this team? Let's hash it out!
FWIW, I think starter minutes are our biggest problem because we are going to need Harden and Paul at 100% if we are going to seriously challenge the Warriors or Spurs...that being said - we need a better bench so D'Antoni can rest his starters when the game is a blow out so they don't throw away a large lead in 3-5 minutes- but those players are less important once we enter the playoffs because every team tightens their rotation then. That's why I am especially excited about the Afflalo to Houston rumors because our current bench isn't going to get to competent level fast enough unless Morey makes some vet acquisitions either via trade or playing the buyout market....but ya - don't really care how it happens, just need to find a way to cut Paul and Harden's minutes without sacrificing wins.
Funny - I ALMOST put that in there. Also, fans taking too long during halftime and missing the first several minutes of the 3rd - WTF?
****....Rockets seem to have the saddest attendance ever. if i was in houston, i'll be at every game... man show the rox some love already... these empty ass seats make it seems like the rockets are bottom feeders that playing for the lottery spot...
We just need to get more insurance and maybe one player upgrade to win it all this year! #INMOREYWETRUST
We are there fam. We in the upper bowl where we can enjoy the game without b****es telling us to sit down
Other - Still not tested as a team. We've had some closer games lately, but we haven't really been punched in the mouth by many good teams yet. Not that this is a permanent weakness, but I just need to see more trials and tribulations, then see how they respond.
