    Yep, he's already punted and expects 38 year old Durant to stay healthy, injury prone Adams to stay healthy, and a ****** midget coming off a horrible injury to turn back the clock at age 33.

    Stone is a ****ing moron and needs to be fired. A real owner would have not even allowed him to make it to the press conference today.

    (Kinda contradicts the last tweet)

    Stone has emphasized repeatedly that the Rockets are ranked top-5 on offense and defense despite having some clear areas where they need to grow. He says the team believes a lot of that growth will come from younger players maturing/guys getting more time together on the court. That played a big part in the laxkcof urgency at the deadline.

    like Amen is gonna pull a jump shot out his ass

    SGs are a dime a dozen. We'll get someone to improve the spacing.

    at least we were tanking and had no expectations

    blockhead Stone trades for KD just to waste away his entire 1st season with the organization…Lord have mercy if KD has any sort of decline or injury issues next season, because we all know the likes of fraudulent Sengun, Jabroni, and Amen won’t be able to pick up the offensive slack

    I sure hope they're more aggressive than the entire team was against the Celtics on our home court.

    I've become numb to the nonsense. Maybe one day we can beat the Boston YMCA All Star team. After how bad they whooped us last night, I don't know how long it will be before we catch the YMCA All Stars.

    Source confirmed that Fred will stay with Rockets for the next 10 years.

    They will build a statue for him.

    Jabari was probably telling him to shoot above 20% from 3 before Amen talks to him.

    Appreciate the kindness. Nothing is ever certain and I'm just a guy with friends who talk with me as a friend-based favor due to my loyalty to the Rox.

    To be fair, nearly every single player I heard from friends mentioned with possible new dogs in Htown found new homes. Either way, what the hell?!

    I'm shocked and disappointed in stone. The only thing he did right was leaving Giannis alone.

    We could have had Jose here for less, same with Luke and many, many others. After tonight's game (and last night), this team is in trouble. We could have had one of 3 of Orlando's bigs as well as Ty for peanuts. Dennis and Keon (especially Dennis) was close and has been in the mix for awhile as the Kings literally just gave up. Same with Memphis...we could have had a great guard, shooter, etc for little to nothing with their fire sale starting with JJJ.

    Same with the Clips...you gave away Big Zu for NOTHING. James just didn't leave for the hell of it...he knew Ballmer was throwing in the towel. Now, he has a chance to come out of the East and actually compete for a title.

    There will be a nice buy out market, but Lord, Stone could have made some tweaks. The asking price of Tari is controversial but DFS and scraps (not my guy Josh :) ) would have been more than enough. Cam would be a nice pick up for a lift off the bench.

    Freddy must be way ahead of schedule, but we need some help facilitating when Amen is indecisive.

    Still shocked. Even the Lakers made a decent move and got rid of Gabe who somehow lost the ability to play (hi, Cory Brewer)


    I just have to believe there's a plan inside a plan. Though, we have lost in terrible fashion in consecutive games.

    Baffling and upsetting.

    Much love to every rockets fan.
