    I can't say I "hate" any Rockets player. He's probably my least favorite.

    ...should trade Miller to T-Wolves or Cavs for second round pick conditional.

    At least his bad play won't be as note worthy on a bad team.

    I love my team and all the players, BUT, I was scratching my head when we signed Brad and ended up pulling my hair out when I saw him play. ( or blow play after play)

    I don't hate any Rockets on the current roster. But I think the answer is yes.

    You can hate him all you want but it won't change the fact that he's contributed more to this team over the whole season than guys like Bud, Hill, and even Lee.

    I think T-Will is my least liked Rocket at the moment. I like Miller all right. But, that flagrant foul last night was just a terrible, lazy defensive effort. So, he's had a couple of spectacular failures, but I think net over the season, he has been a (small) asset.

    Blame the general manager who signed him, blame the coach who presumably lobbied for him, and blame the owner for going along with it.

    I hate his "about time " attitude.... Whenever he doesnt get a foul call, he complains repeatedly even while on defense..Then he gets scored on because he's not focused and then runs b-line to the other end...He recieves the ball then, without consciousness, attacks the rim only to get it swatted about 3 times before he finally gets foul call from the refs... He gripes even more during the foul shots....He acts like the officials owe him something....To answer you question: He stinks and I hate him!!!

    no, he did what he can. It is not him who offered himself the contract.

    Absolutely no reason for anyone to hate Brad. When we acquired him we all knew he was old with no athleticism. He was supposed to be a backup center getting 12-15 minutes a game playing behind Yao. So now some people are upset with Brad because he can't jump or block shots like a young stud? People just want someone to blame because of our frustrating year, but it shouldn't be Brad. If you want to blame someone, then blame Brooks for playing awful this year. Blame Hill for having his head up his rear end half the time. Blame Martin for disappearing during the fourth quarter of games. Brad gave us exactly what I think most people expected, he's an old backup center. How could Miller be the most hated player on the team when Williams is still on the team. Brad actually did well many nights, but because he is old and can't jump, Clutchfans don't want to give him any credit.

    Where is the hate for Morey, Morey is the guy that brought Brad to the Rockets. I guess we can't get upset with Morey, we can only whine about the players that he acquires.
