I apologize in advance
For starting a thread, but this is Not talked about enough...

The goal is to win a Championship!
That’s it!

Anybody that is rooting for the Rockets to suit up Victor, and for Wall and Cousins to get back into their prime are missing the big picture.

This team is going no where! We might have the worst amount of talent in the entire West.

The ONLY goal right now that makes any sense is to cut your losses and trade any player that can bring any future draft compensation. We should be playing our youngsters and aggressively looking for trade partners for Gordon and Tucker services.

We are not going to be in the playoffs for several years and that’s okay. It’s part of the NBA cycle.

Let’s just put ourselves in best position possible to KEEP this years draft pick (Top 4 Protected) . This is a deep draft class and there is a TON of future NBA Stars coming into the league over the next 4/5 years. We need to be at the forefront of assembling these youngsters!! This is all that matters for the forseable future! Yes We have a nice push start gathering all of the picks in the Harden trade, now we just need to focus on being really bad.

I hope we are patient and take a look at the Houston Astros and follow that path minus the cheating. They were historically bad and due to this became historically great. You don’t have to tank in today’s game , you just have to decide to play your youngsters and prioritize prospect scouting above all
Else for the next half decade.

Anybody that is rooting for us to make the playoffs is clueless, We would be swept in the first round! Anybody that wants us to see us at least see what this team looks like is clueless. This team is terrible -

It’s all about creating the next dynasty in my mind. I could care less about being competitive if we have zero shot to win it all. And we have zero shot to win it all for the next several years. So let’s turn around , and let’s OWN the next 5 draft classes ....

If we can focus on this... everything else falls into place including being an appealing free agent
Destination

May the basketball lottery gods be good to us!
