    Who will the Rockets draft at the 14th spot for the next 5-10 years? Treadmill of mediocrity keeps rolling.

    I would if I had ever appreciated him but I'll only be glad the day he is gone.

    Sarver didn't believe in wasting time on developing draft picks. He sold several picks for monetary reasons too.

    I sure hope they do. Not every GM is Morey Ball & has a computer tell them on who to pick. Coaches have a lot of say on who they would like.

    He needs to stop it with playing small, that pisses me off a lot, and it never works.


    Harden, Lou Williams, Gordon, Ariza on the same line up = FAIL

    Lose to Warriors, doubters and haters crawl out of the woodwork with their glum doomsday predictions.

    If we get to the WCF this year, you've lost your right to say you knew we could all along.

    One thing I do hate about Danthony is the fact that his rotational minutes never change. Its too predictable for other coaches to matchup against. Harden always has his set minutes played and they always come with the same rest periods. So on and so forth with all our guards.
