Four years of waiting. Two years of the most miserable basketball anyone has ever seen, with some of the worst “leaders” in the history of the sport. One year to get adjusted to a proper coach, to learn good habits and lock in. And now, after all that, with our homegrown stars all less than 24 years old…we have 50 wins! There’s still a long way to go, there’s still a goal we’ve yet to reach, but taking a step back—I can really appreciate how impressive this is. I love this young squad. I love being able to watch them grow with y’all! No matter how many playoff series they win in the future, how many championships we may see them win…this is the first time we get to see them playing truly meaningful games. It’s gonna be a fun ride!!
Love that we hit the big win milestone (and the playoff clincher) against the Jazz, too. Nothing better than proving our superiority over a hated rival. The NBA is more fun with a little bit of spice
I thought the Rockets would be better than play in good, but not (currently) 2nd seed in the west good
Same, I predicted 46-48, and I thought that I might be being optimistic seeing as how tough the West looked. I was right about one thing; the West definitely is tough. But I severely underestimated our young stars!
Whew, still a ways to go, but it's great to stop and appreciate the journey as fans. Very happy with the improvement and watching this team grow over seasons.
I thought 50 was highly possible if we stayed relevantly healthy. If I was a betting man I would have put some money on the team beating the early Vegas predictions.
I was optimistic and did believe we can get around 50 wins, though I assumed that it would mean that our offense will run much smoother. Considering that we got to 50 (and maybe more), while our offense game still looks sometimes like trash, really keeps me optimistic to the next year, as we have room for another growth!
I and the other 99er’s @DaDakota Ralph and Dream Dream and Glyde Yao and McGrady Harden and Howard Paul and Harden let the sixth cycle in 40 years of the blood red Rocket moon begin! fifty wins brought forth on the sacrifice of the descendants and remnants of the Stockton-mailman purple mountain cave dwellers!!!
I did when we fired Silas, but I reduced my expectations to 47-48 wins this summer. Well done team and Ime!!!
