    One of the few positives about having a cheap owner is that Tilman's not going to want to overpay for veterans for a .300 basketball team no one wants to pay tickets to watch. So hopefully there's no unnecessary veteran signings in the offseason and they focus on getting younger and building through the draft.

    With our luck, though, this will be the first time Tilman's actually willing to pony up the money for veteran signings.

    You have any insight as to how Patrick was viewed other than it being weird the owner was pushing him on Morey? Is he viewed as being bright, does he contribute anything or is he seen as an annoyance

    Basically, if luck is on our side in the next few drafts, Rafael looks like a genius. If the breaks don't go our way, we could be bad for a while.

    People pay monthly to be told the Rockets are embracing rebuilding. What an observation!

    Yes, but that is for any rebuilding team. Stone will need to draft well.
