    We have two stars. Both are hall of famers. That's enough to run with.

    How did Morey not trade Paul for AD or Paul George? What an idiot. How did he not trade Paul after almost winning the championship? We should of went all in for Butler or signed Boogie. Both of those guys are proven champions.

    The Monday morning GMs on this forum are spamming their clown takes. This thread alone is why we get a bad name as a fan base. Some of you should never post again. You can't fix stupid. I'll let you Monday Morning GMs get back to your "should we sign Montae and Amare" or the classic "time to bring Parsons home" and the "time to go all in and get Kevin Love #championship" thread. I'm still waiting on the "Paul for Westbrook straight up" post.

    Nice one! Copy pasted me and everything! I’m in your head I can see. I got real estate.

    Real talk though, I would be glad to trade 34 for 30, when it comes to 3 remaining years and max money. (Especially a player that has had proven success sharing the backcourt with James Harden)

    This is 2019, not 2011 or 2012
    I guess you're still convinced Jimmy Butler is coming to the Rockets LMAO

    I’m waiting for the “Why does Sledge log on to Clutchfans?” If we aren’t here to speculate and play Monday Morning GM, what are we here for? Maybe you should go take a shower?

    The Rockets have a strategy? What I am tired of is throwing draft picks away, not drafting well when they have them, talking too much, somehow alienating other team's players, coaches, and managers, motionless offense, porous defense, a bomb's away strategy when you have low percentage shooters, and midget power forwards. Other than that, the Rockets are the best "almost there," "nearly won," "also ran" team in the league.

    If this was 2011 CP3 would never, ever be traded. Because it is 2019, something to consider bright boy.

    Why or when was I ever convinced of that? Despite owning real estate in your brain, I can see that others also own real estate, and you don’t appear to have your affairs in order.

    Remember, you're quite delusional and I already schooled you. So when is that Butler interview with the Rockets?

    We have the personnel but iso ball won’t work against their wing defenders.

    Chris Paul is no longer a star.

    Sure, but we won’t. Rockets need to redeem themselves and learn from their mistakes.

    A switching defense works against any team. And it did work.

    the west just got harder, i think the best strategy is to sit these few years out and hoard assets like the celtics did.

    Time to bring back Dwight Howard and implement the twin towers with Dwight and Clint. Him and James will just have to make up.
