    The second one, yeah. I do respect the process behind your posts because you tend to back them up with stats and even historical comparison but now that it's been months since the last game, I don't think there's anything about Jalen Green that hasn't been said at this point.

    Oh ya it's groundhogs day over and over again for the past couple of months. I just want training camp to start. I'll have the Texans hold me over. Stroud hype is real and the NFL is easily my second favorite league so I'm genuinely hyped about the Texans now

    There's no need for that... but it is important that actual Rockets fans push back on the conspiracy theories, misinformation, and false narratives pushed so passionately by player only fans.

    I don't care if people disagree with me, as long as they stay on topic. You can hate on any player just hate that player in his thread. If you want to hype a certain player just hype the guy in his thread.

    The poll results are absolutely cracking me up. You know who you are.

    There should have been options for:
    The Offseason

    This has literally been happening since before all the players listed in the poll were born.

    I agree there are additional contributing factors, but to me, folks defending their position(s) is the primary reason.

    And yes, they do know who they are.

    I have been here for a long time. The GARM lacking quality threads during this time of year is normal. Hence the name Game Action. There are no games right now so the lack of good content should be expected.

    While I agree partially, the bickering was just as bad when games were being played this past year.

    Self awareness is a fine thing, you should look into that.

    Oh, agreed. I'm just saying since the early 2000s we've had Yao stans, Mac stans, Lin stans, Matt Maloney stans, Spanoulis stans, Parsons stans. Motiejunas stans, Morey stans, Terrence Williams stans, Harden stans, Porter Jr stans. Also DaDakota who is somehow all of these.

    Man it's August, we don't have much longer to wait and that's all I care about. Ime did a great job in one year. Look forward to seeing the improvement from all this year.

    Thanks!

    I'm thinking not much will change in the short term, but things should calm down for one reason or the other within the next 6 months.

    Some people love to argue..... AND they have to win EVERY argument!

    Ecclesiastes 1:9
    "That which has been is what will be,
    That which is done is what will be done,
    And there is nothing new under the sun."

    Wash, Rinse, REPEAT.....:cool:


    Go Rockets!!!
