    Can you blame him?

    They say they gonna try and move him, so he just wanna be updated. Its obvious he isnt being told anything.

    Well, this really sucks. I'm also not surprised he's ticked off. The Rockets need some closure on this matter ASAP.

    I don't think anybody is happy with the Rockets at the moment.

    Too many players can cause angst......Morey has built this team, he needs to account for stuff like this.

    A trade is coming.

    I'm actually looking forward to it, we need a change.

    Morey is losing his luster quickly between situations like this and the talent he assembled completely failing to work out. He's still a great GM but he better be aware of how his shortcomings are becoming more known around the league.

    I think the "chemistry" we carefully built last year will blow up in our faces this year.

    AB isn't happy he didn't get his extension; KL didn't sound happy also with RA. He said he's "confused" that the coaching staff still hasn't figured the rotation out.

    JT worked all through summer thinking he will be the back-up SG only to find out the Rockets got CLee. This move to get ED looks like a panic move.

    I wonder about the long-term plans of the Rockets FO.

    I feel sorry for Jermaine. Nobody really gave him a chance. Rockets really treat some of their players like ****. Dorsey didn't get playing time for two-three years, and that was only to up his trade value.

    Jermaine only played rotation minutes last year in our throw-away season.

    Who does Jermaine Taylor think he is? He's not Kobe, Lebron or Durant. Hell, he's not even a TMac. He's nothing more than a "Vassilis Spanoulis". This is a business, Jermaine. You can be traded without any heads up. Just like how Lebron didn't give a heads up to CLE when he left.

    He has the right to feel angry. He's not going out there and trashing the team, he's just letting his frustration be known. He's rotting away his first two years in the NBA when he could possibly crack the rotation for the Timberwolves or the Warriors or something...

    Rotting away? Tons of players would LOVE to be in his position.

    He just isn't good enough to crack the rotation yet. At least he's on the roster and has a shot.

    Rotting away would be not even being on a team at all.

    No, rotting away would be being on the team, but not getting a lick of playing time in the NBA. I understand that the PG and SG positions are difficult to crack, but would it really hurt to see what JT could do to help the team at this point? We're 0-4, something has to change.
