    via The Athletic:
    - Russell Westbrook has requested a trade.
    - PJ Tucker is “irate” over his contract situation.
    - Danuel House is unhappy with his role.
    - Austin Rivers isn’t satisfied with his role.
    - Eric Gordon is frustrated with his role.

    This is how it all starts...the rumblings and complaints reach the media and the whole thing eventually burns down.

    Does it make sense to blow it up? Silas is inheriting a complete sh*t show...

    ...now it all makes sense why our new GM was so "lifeless" and trying to save face during the introductory press conference. He's dealing with a complete circus behind the scenes. Morey, always 10 steps ahead, bailed just in time.

    Just blow it up and build a new team/culture with Silas at the helm. Harden is an amazing player but why keep him on the team if we aren’t gonna be able to challenge the top teams in the league during his prime?

    Russ, House, Rivers and Gordon cannot be on this team next year at this point.

    When Paul reached for the ball and tried to steal and tore his hamstring it was the turning point and it culminates now. I hope Harden finds his way back to the finals.

    Of course they were frustrated with their roles.

    Who wants to see Harden dribble and shimmy for 18 seconds every possession?

    Blow this mess up.

    Coaches are afraid to challenge Harden. That is the rockets biggest problem. Harden also needs to realize that major sacrifices need to be made where ever he ends up playing. Yes his teammates let him down but it always feels like there is no structure. I.e no plays or movement. Just stand and wait till you get ball and fire away.

    I'm all for blowing it up but some of this stuff is just silly.

    Russ unhappy with our style when we literally built this **** for him.

    House having the nerve to complain about anything after what his horny ass did.

    Gordon complaining when he could barely stay on the court.

    Just silly stuff.

    Lmao! Get rid of all these cuckoo birds!

    Eric was a turnover machine in the playoffs, unhappy with your role? How about get your handles right first.

    Austin Rivers unhappy with your role? How about stop being so soft.

    and don’t get me started with D house, dude single handedly crippled us with his dumbass cheating ass self. Smh
