    until he leaves in free agency or gets traded once the Rockets realize he won’t re-sign

    I want to see how we look when Wall and House come back. Kinda hard to properly assess the team when you're never at full strength.

    second most points in a Rockets debut is nothing to sneeze at, but man I felt none of those points.

    Man, is it too much to ask for this team to just have a proper 10-15 game stretch where everyone is healthy so we can assess what we even have??

    Sometimes... PJ has one foot out the door and he isn’t a good fit for this team.

    So what, the Bulls are better than us. It was a two possession game at the end once we stopped turning the ball over.

    Again, why are you b****ing, we quite literally traded Harden for picks 3 days ago.

    Nook was spot on, VO has gordon-like shot selection. they're both wildly overconfident about the type of shots they're able to make. this season is a giant waste of time

    Now you got me remembering Harden's first game as a Rocket. The sheer amount of excitement and awe.....it literally felt like we had emerged from the Dark Ages into the light. Fond memories man....fond memories.

    People have no idea how hard it is to put a winning team out there year after year. We were absolutely blessed with Morey, MDA and JH.

    The Rockets have looked extremely suspect on offense since they hired Silas. Just saying though..

    He's not going to average 30 points. Thats not even within the realm of possibility.

    Didn't even know that Hornacek had a daughter. Something positive out of this loss.

    Get over it. The guys don't want to be here. Win or lose I cheer for my team.

    maybe we/I didn't feel those dipo points because we are coming out of the Harden era where the great was mundane?

    Remember we were coming off a no superstar era when we were blessed with Harden.

    I love the work he does on defense, but his limitations... on defense he’s a below average rebounder and can’t protect the rim. Generally a poor complement to Wood. He’s still a tough defender, but it’s painful to see him attempt to finish inside at this point.
