    Ain’t building ****. Can’t build a house without a foundation. Rockets have no foundation.

    Amen Thompson-Reed Sheppard-Tari Eason-Jabari Smith-Alperen Sengun = 2026 Kyle Lowry-Kevin Martin-Shane Battier-Luis Scola-Chuck Hayes Rockets

    Sucked for 3 years and their best players are chunky monkey VanVleet, 37 yo Kevin Durant, & Steven Adams (and previously Dillon Brooks)

    Make a trade, stand pat, who gives a ****. This “core” ain’t it.
    Ohh just give them 5 more years to see!

    And please stop the delusion about being a “PG away or “missing Fred”
    Oh Coby White’s gonna save ‘em
    Oh Fred’s gonna save ‘em

    Point guard, coach, GM, shooting, dump the 90s offense, more shooting, defense…

    I thought that too...


    and then I woke up

    Team's issues are so deep

    This roster is just so fundamentally flawed

    Nah, it was more serious than that. Even if we had FVV, we'd still have the problem of Ben Simmons and Omer Asik killing all the spacing and turning the ball over.

    These players are secondary and third stars and role players. In a rebuild you keep rebuilding till you get a superstar. We have a foundation we just dont have a young superstar and getting KD was the dumbest thing ever. It was a desperate short cut at a time where we didnt need either of those things.

    Our offense looks basic like the Celtics team Ime coached before Mazzulla took over and made them Champs. Mazzulla is just a way better coach.

    Sengun reminds me of Gasol in Memphis. Clearly talented but not a #1

    I knew we’d miss Adams— but this much?

    Does Alpi get to play tomorrow after being ejected?

    Lol@ thinking Ime is prestigious or famous enough to be in them circles. He was barely even an NBA player.

    I wanted a boring win. What I got was a boring loss.

    He was also surrounded by FAR better assistants in Boston. So he could be a hard assed motivator and let the assistants coach the team.

    I'm not actually sure if I can remember a more disappointing, boring and crappy game. I'm so angry it's crazy

    Exactly he's not a number one he's simply our best young player but even by his drft position he wasnt supposed to be the number 1. I dont know why peope are judging him like thats what he was suppsed to be.

    I watched the first half, it wasn’t just boring, it was opposite of fun and ugly.
