    Lakers have should have changed the perspectives at least a little bit. AD thoroughly changes the game that Lebron can play on the court. Harden clearly didn't have this advantage, RoCo isn't AD.

    Tillman isn't trading Harden unless he asks for a trade to make sure he can stay afloat cash-wise, so he's keeping Westbrook. After we gain back a bit more credibility, Tillman will try to convince Harden on a mid-season acquisitions. If Harden isn't convinced, then a deadline will be set for RW + JH to work out.

    Honestly, these injuries are a huge deal. Once again, JH + RW isn't that bad of a crew. We need to surround them with better players, we're just unable to because 1. they don't want to come to Houston 2. no money and LTS.

    I've been around long enough to know this is still better than the Yao + T-Mac era so I'm good with this. It's disappointing, but it could certainly be worse.

    I don't believe the "source."

    If I did, I'd say that one of our players needs to realize that the NBA isn't "basketball camp," and he isn't a teenager.

    This is the truth but many on this board don’t want to admit it. I don’t believe for a second that Tilman wants to trade his two biggest cash cows in the midst of the biggest pandemic in the last 100 years.

    One tidbit in Morey's article that stands out to me the most; I'm rooting for Harden to win "in Houston." It's how this story "should" end. Tillman's definitely considering, or have strongly considered trading him. Just that little bit says a lot. Morey probably stepped down because they want to trade Harden.

    I believe? Its FACT. What big name free agents have came here in the last 5 years? The Rockets are consistently belittled on national tv. Coaches constantly taking shots at us, ex players speaking out against the organization. What planet have you guys been?

    No one's said yet, but Harden already asked to be traded. Harden and Westbrook are upset why they weren't heard in the new coach slection. Another rumor is that Tucker would go with Harden, wherever Harden goes P.J Tucker will go.

    This is not news.. Well maybe the Tucker part.

    Honestly Im ok with how everything turned out. Even Les selling. It was really time to give up this era in Houston. Except MF TF. He has jammed this organization down into the **** tube.

    “Tucker would go with Harden...”

    Really jumping out on a limb there. In other trade rumours the sky is blue.
