    1. Have two all star catch n shoot players.
    2. Have commish's favourite Donkey (intentionally attacks people and gets away with it or just technical foul instead of ejection) (Kicked a grounded Chris Paul and only got a technical) (any other player in the NBA would be ejected). Many other examples, insults the refs but gets away with it while rockets players get technicals for complaining.
    3. Ref's assistance during crunch time ..every game loss rockets had with them included this IE Game 5: Houston steps out of bounds in the clutch..they see it and call it. Warriors steps out of bounds in the clutch (Klay) they don't call it. Game 6: Capela blatantly fouled by Donkey (5 out of 5 witnesses would call it a foul) but NO call during crunch time (Game was TIED and a gamechanging miscall in favour of the RIGGED team GS)
    In simple terms all you need is 2 catch n shoot all stars , a commissioner immune player like Donkey, and third but not least the refs assistance during crunch time.

    The NBA is easily rigged. More easy than rigging a soccer match..during crunch time just make 1-2 calls for the favoured team and game is over.

    Morey either gets in some real stars, or else there’s no point

    Harden is not carrying any team to a title as the only star on the roster...it’s not happening

    Harden+no other stars=no title...address that equation Morey

    Get shooters

    You need 5 all stars willing to share the ball and play solid defense. Youneed an owner willing to spend a ton of money. You need the players to sacrifice salary. You need a coach who can keep the players focused. You need a system that keeps all players involved. You also need a GM who can keep plugging in complimentary players year after year.

    So yeah, we have a long way to go. We clearly aren't as close as it looks. The individual games were close but we got bounced in 6 at home vs a team that lost KD and Cousins and had one of their other stars with zero points in the first half.

    It's all irrelevant when the refs have your back during crunch time. Just do some catch n shoot 3s and things are covered in the end by the refs

    Lakers aren’t giving us Lebron in return for our garbage...there is nothing on the roster other than Harden that they could get in return that could make trading Lebron here justifiable

    anyone who didn’t want Lebron was trippin from the start...I wanted Lebron badly, and still do

    Houston has chances in game 1 and 5, MDA does not timeout to draw foul

    Harden missing five free throws

    ---not a huge problem but Draymond green runs the ball back down your throat after a miss.

    Harden push off offensive foul late in the game.
    ---not a huge problem since harden scored late but the dead ball slowed momentum and stalled rockets offense.

    Harden turn over bad pass to Thompson after the curry bomb.

    Soon after the harden bad pass, Thompson hits late shot clock three.

    The problem with the missed opportunities is rockets offense stall while golden state defense is steady revving and kicking the golden state offense into high gear.
