    The Rockets off ball defense was maybe their biggest issue

    Consider it solved when this dude is on the court

    No, are you going to stop being an *******?

    What I am going to do, is cheer for this team - and hope that history is not proven right again.

    nah im not, especially to your type of posts. the doom and gloom ish and crying is so gimmicky. people like you expected the rockets to just get ran off the court. the complete opposite happened and they absolutely showed what the potential of what this new team is capable of. one game or not. Then the next day it's well it doesn't matter, its not the playoffs. give me a break with that bs. it all comes down to your stubborn belief this was a crap move in the first place.

    you're pulling the holic cards at this point. you hate to see it.

    Wah wah wah, I don't like how someone posts, and I can't figure out how to use the ignore button....wah wah wah.....

    Man you cry a lot.

    Deal with the fact that some don't like the trade, doesn't mean we won't support the team.....I have been a fan longer than you have been alive.

    it's actually you that cries a lot. you just can't stand being called out on it.

    now you're trying to justify yourself. stop it old head. learn how to adapt to the modern age. the fact that you can be this stubborn at your age makes it that much worse. looking like barkely out here, more of a debbie downer rather than a fan

    I don't care what people think, this is a forum to go and share ideas and to vent - I find it hilarious that people whine about how others post - like they have some sort of control over the internet.

    If you don't like it, don't read it, and put it on ignore - hey, that's a good idea - goodbye DDingleberry.

    And contribute to this site, you freeloader!

    lol at this post.

    oh boy when i said you're pulling holic cards, I sure wasn't lying. what a horrible look. he did this exact same thing

    you're forced to use the contribute to the site which had nothing to do with anything. but lets go down that road old head since you brought it up. did you really think the only people that have actually contributed to this site say contributing member underneath their tag? newflash, when you give to the tipjar through paypal, that comes without recognition to your account. there's people that actually don't care about being seen and give to clutch even if they're not being recognized. /discussion

    If it makes people feel better, RoCo is only 2.5 cm shorter than Capela...

    Did you like the win??

    You just like the sound of your own voice, no matter if evidence to contrary is produced.

    Your take is always wrong.

    I’m not sure I understand a lot of folks’ mentality here (even Lowe) that we sold low on Capela. As if dumping Nene’s contract does not cost us anything. As if that late 2nd rounder we received doesn’t exist. As if he’s not injured (and liable not to play the rest of this important season in full capacity). As if he has fit well after Russ arrived. As if Russ has not benefitted from him not in the lineup.





    I was miffed by us not getting a body C before the deadline, tho...

    All arguments revert to, "If we don't win a championship, it means I was right!"

    People usually use this argument out of shame, because it is the last and only bullet in their holster. Zero substance.

    Shaq, Charles, Stephen A, Kellerman, etc. are all pretty good at it, Basketballholic-Jopatmc was the master.

    Covington continues to look tremendous on the floor.

    Dude, it's like he is being unleashed on this league by playing with Tucker down there.

    It's fun watching these guys hustle. Our deflections must have gone up by 1000%. I am happy we traded for him.
