    The whole purpose of last year was to tank lol. Even when Wall was at his best, he'd still sit out 3-4 games at a time. Us losing was a FANTASTIC thing for us. You're trying 2 spin it but everyone knew we were tanking. Harden quitting benefited everybody but him this time

    If simply getting to the post season, just to have your star player throw in the towel every year is a accomplishment, then youre a idiot fan. Nothing else here

    Not until we started losing. Even after harden left, we went on a 6 game win streak and were beginning to click. Once Wood went down, it all came down. Sure, we knew that we were nowhere near as good without harden, but 27~ teams don’t have a player of hardens caliber. Should they just give up before every season even begins?

    Bitter fan logic: Harden hurt my feelings so he sucks! I don’t care if it’s not true! It makes me feel better!

    ^This is also bitter baby mama logic. The person who left sucks and you are better off without them………yet you can’t stop thinking/talking about them lol

    There is a reason they’re called fans — short for fanatics.

    Again, if we wanted 2 win Wall wouldn't be sitting out multiple games at a time. The reason hes on the team is because he's the perfect player to tank behind. Same thing with Cousins. They're players you acquire when your not trying to win games. Idiot posters saying"look at how bad we were without Harden last year" are dumb without mentioning how bad we were tanking

    My guess is this has to do with Stone shopping the SF free agent market and then the analytics folks showing them how House compares. I know we all think House is nothing special but knowing what players that do what he kinda does are getting paid… I sort of understand it. I’d still prefer more minutes for Green, Christopher etc. and some cracks taken at G League 3 and D wings so they could maybe find a Covington type like Philly did when they were tanking.

    Harden's squads wasn't good enough to win the championship when he was here. You have to be an idiot fan to not realize this. The Rockets lost to superior teams. It still doesn't excuse the franchise for winning 1 playoff series in 15 years. They have to build a winner.

    the ignore function makes these exchanges really weird. It looks like @Nook arguing with the air … then I have to figure out which moron who I’ve ignored he is arguing with. I got this one right.

    I would be so screwed. I hate the beach. The other players would be like, "I'm trying to bond with Williamson, but he's being so negative and always complaining about sunburn and how sand gets into everything!"

    Jalen Green staring Danuel House wearing number 4 is not bonding.

    It would be a great feeling if the Rockets release Danuel House Jr. in the Bahamas.

    On the Airplane ride back Jalen Green can post his number 4 Jersey on Instagram.

    House can hardly say the number has brought him luck.

    Danuel House Jr more likely stalking girls on the beach.

    Maybe this is being misreported and he’s actually just discussing getting hair extensions for next season.
