    I mean, it has been pretty obvious to anyone watching that Tucker was barely trying out there. The guy is a joke, get him out of here ASAP.

    Funny how in this league you can just pout and give a half ass effort because you're unhappy and nothing happens to you.

    I dont even mind some dude's not wanting to pay him even though I disagree, its just the outright disrespect some people like to throw at him.

    You are so delusional, bro... so present day everybodys a victim mindset.
    He's been getting paid millions of dollars a year to play basketball - a contract he signed.
    He decided to side with his narcissistic buddy while he was driving down his trade value for us too...
    Then despite those fat checks still clearing - he decides to be a lil b**** and go pout...

    Screw him and his buddy...

    You n Drock should go be fans of whatever teams these losers are ending up with - go follow Harden or PJ... cause y'all sure as hell aint Rockets fans if you're siding with these drama queens over your supposed team as they work to drive down their value and hurt our return...

    I guess #loyalty - not to mention a signed contract - is only a 1 way proposition as far as yer concerned... smh...

    I get that Tilman is an ass... but I'm still a Rockets fan - period.

    Yea yea, predictable "good ole boy" take it up the butt for the good of the company garbage. Typical shut up and dribble stuff. LOL pout??? Bro he's been underpaid his whole time here in Houston. This dude played Game 7 with freaking broken teeth.He still came to work. He still put in effort. Dont be mad just because someone wants what they are owed and they made an instagram post that insulted you or whatever.

    Lol I dont root for soulless logos who screw over people. The players are what make a team. Hurt our team lol. Its the bone headed owner's fault that he wasnt traded sooner, now his value is down when this team is clearly trash.

    Yea yea, as long as you sign the contract, you can get hoed any which way. Nah...Im not with that and I wont ever be with that.

    Yea and so am I, im just not a stooge.

    Tend to agree with most of this. I appreciate the Tucker of years past as much as anyone, but this years version ain’t it. He checked out a long time ago.

    The fact that some of you like sympathizing with Tillman more than anyone else really baffles my mind lol.

    If he wanted to b**** the day after the trade deadline - fine...

    but at this point he's just hurting our return - and he knows it! He wants to drive down his value and get bought out so he can go ride Blames' jock some more...

    Wanna place a tip jar bet now on whether or not he gets a 2/24 on his next contract?

    Then dont sign the contract.

    I'm for the City of Houston in all sports. I dont root for players or other teams. I want championships for the city and could care less about whether a player is having fun or not.

    Rooting for the City to win a championship isn't sympathizing with Tilmam

    I appreciate Stone clinging to assets because he wants to get the best deal possible, but that seems to be causing unnecessary tension in and around the team. Silas definitely doesn't need the extra turds showing up on his plate.

    He's not driving down his value man. If anything, him not playing helps his value. Do you think his value is gonna change in 2 weeks?

    No, he's not. He's not driving his value down, he just wants to be dealt. Teams still want him. Just now its been reported that the Bucks,Lakers, Nets, and Heat are still intersted in him. The Sixers as well.

    He's obviously not gonna get that. But I do believe he is owed that money by our organization because he constantly overperformed that contract from when he was here. You hated small ball man and the guy played center and never complained. He was the heart and soul of our team. Yea I wanna show loyalty to a dude who was that guy for our team. Call me sentimental but I dont care, he deserves his money.

    Contracts arent binding forces of nature that should allow you to screw someone over. And if someone doesnt like it, they have a right to do whats best for themselves.

    The players are what make up the team. The people are what make up a city. The players are what make up a team. Its not about fun, its about someone wanting their deserved money.

    Paying PJ Tucker doesnt affect this city winning a championship. This team is gonna be bad for at least 3-4 years. At best 2 years when his contract will be over.

    Complete dilemma. I'd like to see PJ get paid, but then we can't trade him. If we trade him, chances are he's going to get lowballed again.

    This could've all been avoided had we faced the music before Harden's departure. This is not a good time to be causing this kind of friction.

    Honestly I'm fine with him not playing. Wish the team made it with him during the break and announced it on their own. There was never a reason to have him on the court once things went south and all we're risking is him getting injuries at an inopportune time.
