    Oh please, what a lame thread. Like none of us wanted Artest nor were we ecstatic when we found out he was coming to Houston. Yes, it is unfortunate it didn't work out but Morey is hardly the one to blame for any of this.

    You don't want a panicky, trigger happy GM. It's easy to screw up a team that way.

    We've got a lot of firepower thanks to Morey. He's the least of our concerns.

    Adelman, McGrdy, and Artest have two months, maybe three to decide their fate. Unless someone in the Eastern Conference has a serious home run offer for Artest.

    The reason the Rockets are where they are, is because of the leadership of their best player, Tracy McGrady. He's is supposed to set the example for the rest of the players, but he does not.

    As good as Yao is, Tracy is the Rockets No. 1 guy and and our No. 1 player just doesn't care about the bottom line.....winning. He cares about playing well, but winning doesn't matter to him like it does Kobe or Lebron.

    This is the best surrounding cast Tracy has ever had and he still doesn't make it work. I'm about done with him.

    The Rockets play better when he is not on the court.

    GP and Malone were past their prime. GP did manage to steal one with Miami though.

    I believe piling up talent that COMPLIMENTS your best players does win championships.

    no one person is to blame its a team effort on the court and if they cant play well together then its just time for some guys to go. I think we should let our senior citizen, tmac go before he brakes a hip or somthing.

    Be responsible for what? Being 29-20 midseason? Chill out and watch the rest of the season take place. We can't do much more than just be fans, so whatever.

    Last year we had people jumping off cliffs too, then we hit a 22 game winning streak and had people jumping right back on the bandwagon. After that we lost in the first round again and everyone went off the deep end again.

    It's just sports guys, and we're just fans. There's a lot of season left to take place, so I don't know why we're already talking about putting blame for not winning a championship that hasn't taken place yet. All we can do is watch and support.
