LMFAO TF- So I hear Harden and Westbrook want to play together DM- Well...yeah, it would be tough to make it work and I don't think it's a great fit TF- But we could get him, he's a big star, put something together DM- Well, we have a package that could work, but I don't think it really makes us better. TF- Who cares, big star DM- I don't think you're hearing me, it would be bad for the franchise TF- How, he won an MVP and makes less money than Chris Paul DM- Like, really, really bad, I've got stats to prove it and basketball ops and coach D'Antoni unanimously agree with me. TF- Make the trade DM-
I agree with everything you said except Harden orchestrated the Chris Paul trade and wanted to play with his buddy Westbrick. Harden shouldn't really complain about the roster this season bec he is highly responsible for it this year.
Lol!!!! This is well said. I love it!!! I absolutely HATED when Les put this team up for sale and he jumped in and bought it. I just don’t care for him and he has CLEARLY shown he knows zero when it comes to running a professional basketball team.
Rockets were always second round fodder. Some of you need to accept Harden is a big part of the problem too.
I have a feeling this thread will be bumped at least once a week for the next couple of decades. Unless the COVID pandemic forces Tilman to sell, which puts us Rockets fans in the unfortunate position of rooting for a deadly pandemic.
I do agree, Harden is a massive problem but I have hard time seeing the situation being this bad under the former owner of the team.
The blame Tilman crowd is almost as bad as the "Thanks Obama" folks. It's almost meme-worthy at this point. Blaming TF for DM moves that were made to satisfy Harden and allow Westbrook (who Harden demanded we get) to operate. I guess I am the resident Clutchfans TF defender. Maybe he'll see my posts and give me a job. Or just a few million bucks.
It is telling that Monte McNair got the hell out of Tildoville to be the GM for the Kings.... the guy number one on the list.
Right, you do know that the owner went on national television bragging about the Westbrook trade and said that HE was the one that insisted on the deal being done after his basketball people didn't want to do it.
Many in this thread will be unhappy campers for years to come. No comment on TF jerk-ness or lack thereof. It only matters to your feelings.
