    The only "offensive talent" that I really see is Harden, Lawson, Thornton, and DMo. Of those, Harden and Lawson are the only ones underperforming IMO, with Harden's performance being a matter of efficiency.

    Maybe you were just talking about Harden and Lawson, and if so you're right. But other than that we don't have much.

    I would never argue that Bev, Ariza, Brewer, Jones, or Howard are offensive talents. They are each capable but have severe weaknesses.

    It's a sign! Rockets bench, adidas shoes (harden), Young to Houston confirmed. Thank you based god!

    Na, but seriously, I don't know that any of these guys mentioned are the solution, but if they an throw in a consistent 10-15 ppg off the bench that would be amazing

    Also it'll be interesting to see Lou Williams and his two girlfriends alongside Khloe Kartrashian

    both his GF's can probably be hid under Khloe. James might actually tap one of them up. Dwight make a baby with the other. Locker room issues.

    Dwight is in the plans for this year from what I was told...

    Also, Dwights problem is with Harden on the floor.. NOT off the floor. Most Rockets are not happy with him! This is 100% accurate. Kill me if you want, but people are just not happy with Harden...

    Yeah this is obvious.

    Too much me ball and my stats from Harden this season. Too much selfishness and less team play

    I expect some idiot will come in and point at the number of assists Harden has ignoring the context and just watching the box score.

    So much for the "it's a done deal" with Atlanta for Horford.

    They DO say that the best defense is a good offense. In theory, you can't lose if you score more points than the other team. :p

    Harden has become a prima donna. He needs to focus.

    Thanks for the info, when you say in the plans, do you mean he's in the plans to get traded ?

    I think harden is a big problem but first we have to move Howard get what we can he won't be back. Then give harden a chance with a new coach next year, then if that doesn't work out try to get a big haul for him
