    I feel so badly for Harden it’s not going to happen for him and he has done nothing but be an all time great.

    Wasting a generational talent in harden as he will rot in cap space purgatory with all us fans. We got one fun year out of it. And 17/18 was fun. But looks like we made a deal with the devil and he is cashing in.

    It takes a minimum of 16 playoff games to win an NBA championship. Chris Paul's hamstring went out last season in Game 15.

    In your gut, you know this year's run will end the same way.

    Hard to have a really good bench with what we are paying Chris Paul. $40 million is a big hole in your lineup if the guy getting it is injured and unable to help the team.

    Haven't the rockets learn the lesson from last year. He's injury prone jesus!!!! You can't play him like last year. I don't know why they haven't invested in a quality pt guard to take some minutes off him.

    Last year was our shot. It had to happen last year. Everything went according to plan until the end.

    The Rockets have multiple contracts and draft picks to fix their bench and they have done nothing. The Rockets were going to be maxed out regardless of whether Paul got 30 million or 40 million. Besides, to be quite frank, Paul makes an enormous difference on this Rockets team.

    Rather than getting cute, Morey should have signed someone like Tony Parker with the MLE and played Paul 28-30 minutes a game and sat him on back to back. Instead Morey has done NOTHING and the season isn’t that young anymore.

    The Rockets season is salvageable but Morey keeps playing with fire. Just make the deal for Morris and get a solid back up point guard.

    Right now they aren’t making it to game 15 unless Morey drops the idealism pie in the sky BS and addresses the issue of depth.

    Morey killed any chance of Harden winning a title by signing CP3 and Capela to those massive contracts when neither deserved it.

    You'd think he would have learned his lesson after Ryno but nope. Any GM who makes so many major mistakes in a row would've been easily fired by now but nope, "HURR DURRR MOREY IS THE SMARTEST GM IN THE LEAGUE".
