    LOL. If you really believe our posts have any effect on the team's personnel decision and a player's performance, you are one delusional poster.

    Easy there, I was referring to DMo hate in general.

    Maybe I am undervaluing his defense, but I am much more worried about offense when our numbers in the last 3 games have been:
    FG 86/236
    3pt 22/103

    Most of them are delusional. Or absolute egotistical maniacs. Any fan that believes their their opinion has the slightest effect on Morey, McHale or their million dollar analyst and coaching staffs must be either three sheets to the wind or JCDenton.

    I think our lackluster play is more of a result of our stars playing like horse****. Not the replaceable 4.

    Amen, brother. This is the PC form of bullying. If you feel constipated and want to take a sh$% on someone, you can't do it in real-life interaction, because 1) it's not PC, 2) guys like D-Mo will help kick that sh$% out of your body. So just pick a "real person" whom you don't know and trash him on the internet for being NBA-level-sucky.

    People like theimpossibles1 have no knowledge or understanding of the NBA. I imagine most of them are pubescent boys taking out the fear and frustration they experience in high school on the internet. They never have any facts, or statistics, and they never ever quote reputable sources like Lowe. They are just empty hateful shells, proffering nothing but their ever so valuable unsupportable opinions.

    NBA level sucky, on an NBA team. That sums it up. It's not like we are bashing his personality.

    To be honest, sometimes I do realize "Maybe I'm just too old for this. Half of these people are like 15."

    I swear if there were a members-only section of CF that cost like $50 a year, I would join it. I wonder how many people would join.

    Can't you just like all the people on the Rockets?

    Which do you like more: the Rockets or the Rockets' wins?

    It's all about winning. All I am saying is we have a weakness with DMo and we should be open to changes.

    Really? Care to cite some relevant data, a statistical analysis, a trusted columnist's opinion? Or are you just going to keep flapping your gums. I guess the latter because you are incapable of the former.

    I'd be down. Heck you could make it $1, just the requirement of having a credit card would probably get rid of a lot of nonsense.

    Easy with you attacking other posters. Many would think you don't have any knowledge of the nba when you claim Dmo is due for a 10 million dollar / year contract

    To me it's actually not all about winning. That's why I'm not a Spurs fan or Lakers fan or Heat fan or whatever team has the most wins.

    I don't think winning is your top priority, and I think you don't know yourself. Why are you not a fan of the team with the most wins, which is not the Rockets?

    Do you feel that the team's function is to get wins, and if they fail to do that, you will dislike them? I don't think that's a fan's attitude. I think that is a capitalist attitude of a customer to a server or an employer to an employee, and I don't look at the players that way. That's just not what I want to do for my hobby and enjoyment. And look, you have less enjoyment than I do! And my team is 9-2. And so is yours.

    Why not just, like, enjoy?

    Really? I do have the statistics and did the research to back it up. And posted it here. Many people here just have no interest in reading charts and graphs. Or actually in evaluating the facts in any way. And, since you did not know D-Mo will be a free agent in the summer of 2016 with a salary cap in the neighborhood of $80-$90M. Yes I take into account things like that.

    That is a good idea. The threshold should be low, because you need enough people.

    Perhaps an IQ test would be in order. The ClutchFans version of the Wonderlic Test -- the Clutcherlic!
