    The Rockets cannot sign a player in the 2018-19 NBA season once tonight’s game starts.

    I strongly doubt there will be any more signings this season.

    Well spit.

    You know "Team's Regular Season" is an undefined term in the CBA? The only definition of regular season is the league regular season. A good attorney could make a case that the league regular season is the same as the Team's Regular Season. Average attorneys assume the definition.

    I was hoping we could at least make a deal today.

    We are officially #AlsoRans, folks.

    When you spend most of your time being a jerk or an ass - jokes only come across as more assing.

    Trust me.....I know !

    Also, when you are not self-aware it is a problem.

    I good sign of not being self-aware is the habit of deflecting criticism onto others.

    Or, maybe that’s being defensive...using the Teflon Shield of Assorias.

    Because I have been a jerk or an ******* here, and am self aware - you don't even know that the way you post is a problem - even though others have pointed it out to you time and time again.

    It's ok, unless you are on the spectrum somewhere, you will eventually figure it out.

    Good attorneys do not waste their client’s money or the court’s time.

    I dont even know what the spectrum you speak of is. So probably no hope for me to "figure it out" and conform as you say you have. (Did they convince you that you are racist too?) Of course, I have never posted with the volume that you used to post at either. But I was aware enough to know that Lowry was better than Brooks.

    (If that doesn't make you laugh then nothing will.......)

    Well potential good news for tilman

    If we fall to the 4th and lose to GS before the Wcf .... no one thinks less of the team than had we gone to the Wcf and lost .... AND tilman saves on Clints incentives .

    I think we know who paid the refs last night ;)

    The 2018-19 team salaries are now frozen except for individual bonuses that are unaccounted for and if a player has a trade bonus and is moved before July 1. There are five teams projected to be in the luxury tax: Oklahoma City ($61.6M), Golden St. ($51.5M), Toronto ($21.4M), Portland ($15.1M) and Boston ($3.9M). The distribution for the 25 non-tax teams project to be $3.1M per team. - Bobby Marks

    $3.1M coming our way! YESSIR!
