    You don't deserve to own an NBA organization.

    Please go on to other business ventures and sell the Houston Rockets to a rightful owner.

    PLEASE I'M BEGGING YOU.

    Where are the Tilman defenders now.

    Ariza, CP3, Clint, MDA, Morey

    Tilman destroyed our championship-caliber, our all-time winningest season record team, that had what was arguably the greatest team in NBA history on the ropes, with a ring on tips of our fingers until Paul got injured. He disrespected and lost the coach who helped mold Harden into a MVP, who delivered all time great offenses, and now our insanely talented GM who should have been with this team for another 20 years.

    All out of sheer stupidity and broke ass-ness.

    Tilman is the worst thing to happen to the Houston Rockets by far. Whereas Dolan is a jackass off the court and alienated his fan base, he at least provides his team with all the resources to win. Tilman? He's broke and it's getting worse.

    Tilman's casino and restaurant empire has been greatly impacted by the coronavirus disaster (serves him right in a way). My guess is he would be more than willing to take a loss right about now, or take on Chinese partners...

    I have no way of knowing any of this, but I believe Daryl and several front-office personnel were asked to take a pay cut, layoffs are coming, and that there's some financial news that Tilman is desperately trying to keep a lid on. In other words, Daryl could no longer look James and the players in the eye, and he wants to keep his reputation intact.

    I could be completely wrong about all of that and don't want to start rumors, but that's my guess and I don't fault Daryl or anyone else in the organization that decides to bale.

    Tilman Fertitta is the real life Jackie Moon. Sigh.

    Please! Go back to running your mediocre, overpriced restaurants. We want our team back.

    It’s comical at this point how bad this guy is. I have no idea what the rockets and fans did to deserve being stuck with this idiot as an owner. The last 2 years have just been a disaster with him and it’s just getting worse as we go along with nothing to look forward to for years down the road

    We might end up worse than the Knicks at this rate. Incredible. At least Nolan and Sterling actually had money when they ruined teams. Terrible owner.

    people need to stop going to Toyota Center next season..that's the only chance we may force Tilman to sell this team.
    also stop buying Rockets gears.
    Tilman is a money w****, he's gonna bounce when revenue declines.

    I don't know, at least they could afford to go over the luxury tax when it can help us

    There is basically only two things left for him to destroy.

    Harden wanting to be here and the team staying in Houston.

    What an absolute cancer this guy is.

    I am now convinced Tillman overreached, he is over-leveraged, he is hurting the team.
