    Whatever the outcome of this and whether people like the trade in the first place, the Rockets front office has once again shown that they work very hard to improve the team and will not stop trying under difficult (and just weird) circumstances. These guys deserve a lot of respect.

    They do work hard, and I think if Morey was completely in charge he would be able to get it done.

    Hey Le$ get the **** out of Morey's way...

    I'm sorry it didn't work out like you planned, Morey. You had a good and solid plan for the team's future but then that nazi killed it in one of the most illegal moves in history. :(

    When we start winning, I'll appreciate them more.

    I support this by supporting the tank, with sending Martin out for 1st pick, even Scola as well

    Sacrifice 66 games to get 66666 games better

    I feel like giving Morey a giant hug right about now and try to console to him. Let him cry on my shoulders.

    Seriously, the man has been through so much these last 3 weeks.

    I completely agree. Whatever the outcome the rockets management should feel proud, you've done the fans proud.

    Lucy still pulling the football away. Morey tries his plan, whatever that may be. Its easy to blame les and I'm not blaming anyone, but dawson sold les the retool project and he sold the reload project. I just don't believe les wouldn't give morey the same leeway if it makes the rockets better long term.

    True, I feel for Morey he has said that sucking is clearly the way to get better but Les has an edict to try to build on the fly.

    While I don't necessarily think this move would have made us appreciably better, I don't mind Morey trying it.

    What I would PREFER, is they trade some of our better performers for picks in future drafts....

    Implying there's no blame in Yao's injuries

    I agree that they worked hard, but it's too soon for this thread.

    Let them keep working... once they get one of these crazy deals done, the break/relief/response from that will be most rewarding.

    I appreciate their hard work and urge them to keep at it
