    Well I do since EG and Rivers are both at a discount. EG might get traded 3rd year if the Rox dont win anything as he will be an expiring but for the next 3 years at least the core is staying.

    Wasn't an EGO fan until I start to find out he is a homer. He comments on Texans, Astros and George W. Bush. I'm happy EGo will rock us.

    It was an odd gauntlet to throw down especially because in no way did your gauntlet prove without the shadow of a doubt that 'all insiders are fake'. It's like you believe the concept of the privilege of secret information passing doesn't happen.

    I'm guessing you believe Benedict Arnold was framed?

    Yeah I wonder the same thing when there's a significant article about the Rockets. If it's negative, THE MEDIA IS SO BIASED AGAINST US!!! If it's positive, THE MEDIA IS SETTING US UP SO THEY CAN BLAME US FOR UNDERACHIEVING!!

    Sometimes I wonder what people here actually want to see...

    Splash! Tilman about to sell the team if this team doesn't win a ring.

    I hope this leads to EG having a career high season for us.. when EG plays well, we almost always win.

    He should have put that WIN A CHAMPIONSHIP clause in all contracts. Everyone gets max $17 million unless you win a ring

    This is fantastic news. Our core is in tact for the next 3 years. No better compliment to Westbrook available for that price. EG’s shooting is going to make Westbrook a better player. Every rockets fan should be thrilled.

    Works in the regular season. We get dominated by draymond and looney in the playoffs. They’re bound to get someone by December... enough time to work them into the system hopefully.

    Good news, and even though i think one less year would've make it a better asset, all things considered the contract is fair, especially with the last unguaranteed year, and now we also have a bit more salary to move if a chance for a big trade happens (unlikely, but you never know).
