    So, if all free agents want to come here, which one(s) do you sign?

    *Let’s exclude Harden for this exercise

    Udoka has street cred.

    Small improvements lead to mass success. You should read Atomic Habits.

    Sorry but coming off another bottom of the league season and not controlling your next 3 drafts - there's no way you can say "yup, this worked out exactly the way our process was designed" unless your Rafael Stone's hype man.

    If the Rockets salvage some relevant FAs this year, you can maybe retroactively say that, but thus far, i don't think it has met internal expectations (even according ro the notoriously pro team press) let alone mine or yours - > hence the pivot

    Now THAT is some refreshing news.

    We have our Antidote to the Tilman effect.

    That post was some great PR for Mr Stone. Lets wait for the offseason to be over, there is a lot of important work to do and opening the champagne on the first good thing in 3 years is not positive for anyone.

    Great rumors though, hope we can make it real.

    Not sure this is a fair or logical take considering the situation was caused by Morey (really Tilman) and was simply inherited by Stone.

    So you are saying Stone is not accountable for the last 3 years?
    Or are you saying he is done a better job than 99% of the media and insiders give him credit for?

    Considering the directive is to tank in order to setup future success, I am saying the latter.

    I mean we send a signal and look like it works
    but it‘s far from talking about success,we just have a good start in the offseason

    Sorry, but no.

    When I knew the Harden era was over, I came up my own plan of exactly what the Rockets should be doing for the following 3 years. Who to draft, how long to bottom out, cap management, etc to be in the best possible moving forward. They have executed very very closely to what I would have done, with only a few minor exceptions. You seem to lack even basic long term thinking.

    - "Coming off another bottom of the league season" is not a bad thing.
    - "Not controlling your next three drafts" was not a decision as part of the rebuild, it was a circumstance you already inherited prior to starting, due to a dumbass owner.
    - We have seen your complaining, and your very very poor suggested alternatives (lulz John Collins).
