    Well for one, Peanut head helped Tillman buy this team. He's always been favored by the Fertittas since day 1. His Harden trade was also not a good one imo.

    Patrick...looool, well Patrick being involved in the FO despite having no qualifications is awful, him following Morey around like a puppy and having pull in his decisions helped pushed Morey out the door. Then there is the REALLY big one of being a strong proponent of the Westbrook trade and helping push that through.

    So no, I dont like either of these guys. If they do good moves in the future, cool. But they are part of what destroyed our title window and I dont like them.

    You simply will never admit that Harden pushed that trade. It's obvious he has more pull.

    The cognitive dissonance to hold this take is truly mind boggling.

    being a stand up guy refers to your character tho, you’re talking about their competence or lack thereof...Stone and Patrick aren’t bad guys with low character

    Patrick shouldn’t have the amount of influence that he does based on his lack of experience, but Tilman is the one who shouldn’t be allowing it...any young 20 something year old in Patrick’s position would be doing the same things he’s been doing if allowed to do so...I blame Tilman for that

    How many times have we been over this? The man went on TV and said that ****. So sorry no, I dont believe that Daryl woulndt have been able to speak with Harden about this trade. Tillman even said "Our front ops guys got a little nervous, why? Why get nervous at all if you HAD to do this? There are multiple people who said that Patrick had a hand in this too. I have said that Harden pushed for this trade, and he's the biggest idiot for that move. But I also have said that it wasnt "he couldnt be told no situation."

    Cognitive dissonance? Bro you are still on here willing to believe anything and everything that Harden does is evil because "Beard man bad and selfish" let it go man, he's gone. He cant hurt you anymore.

    We dont really know enough about them to say one or another regarding their character, color me skeptical.

    they’ve given no reason to think they’re not good guys

    I don’t see the reason for Stone or Patrick unless him being Tilman’s son must mean his character should be questioned or something

    I have no reason to not believe what Harden says about the front office...if he said that about the owner, I’d call it cap

    Remember when certain idiots used to say harden could only thrive in MDA system and couldn’t play in another system? But Now he is leading the league in assists and is playing team ball.

    This post is embarrassing on so many levels. You think he can’t score 34 a game anymore? .. go look at the games without Kyrie in Brooklyn . He averaged 32 points 13 assists and 8 boards on over 50 percent shooting. With Kyrie who is their shooting guard, harden plays plays the distributor role but if need be harden can still put up big numbers.

    it's funny how harden has spoiled folks with how he scores 30 so effortlessly. he can literally do that any time he wants. meanwhile you have the likes of gordon, dipo, wall who struggle to even get 20 and they have to put up at least 16 shots to do so.

    Yeah the 44 points 17 assists under Silas was inflated to. The knock on harden was he couldn’t play team ball which he is doing now.

    No other team was taking an injury-prone 40m a year CP3, so we had no other options.... besides maybe keeping him.

    Rather remember that the Rockets were 4th seed and rising before the pandemic cur short season.

    5 game only losing streak will look like a thing of beauty very soon.

    Where’s all the bravado and shade from John Wall and Boogie? Is Gordon still having fun? Haven’t seen that cute little with Harden and without Harden win loss stat in a while. What is it now?

    On the bright side, at least these guys want to be here. Smart threes are better than dumb threes and inefficient ball movement is more exciting to watch than efficient iso ball. Everybody is more involved and invested. Loving watching Danuel House create off the dribble. Nice to see him have the freedom to finally be able to expand his game.
