    Talk is cheap. Tilman if this is true, get on tv and say it. Let other teams hear your not a cheap ass, like every body says.

    We can hope! I certainly hope we're doing all we can to win a chip.

    Tilman: " I'm all in to win, we just missed the right deal. I'm mad someone screwed my deal up!!!"

    he isn't. Fans here are just so wrong about him because they think huge luxury tax is all you need to win titles...............

    this is real fake news though, meaning that it's fake news that actually made the media

    In general I agree with you but not in this case. Tillman had ways to materially improve the Rockets and he choose not to because of money. In fact he had Morey waste assets to save him money. This has been done on a number of occasions already. Will he stick his toe into the luxury tax this year? Probably, he has rightfully been embarrassed.

    The main point is that it's too late. It's easy to say he'll spend now when the restrictions to spend have already been put in place by the moves of the prior 2 years. Haters or huggers, it's just too late.

    I don't believe it.

    I believe we'll hear the same old crap .... we had a couple deals lined up , other teams backed out.

    Nene and a second round pick to team X to duck the tax .... we didn't mean to do it , it just happened.


    Amen Brother. The damage has been done over the course of the last two years and there aint no way to recoup those losses.

    Rather than having all those assets to improve , Morey's stuck moving his 3rd best player .... probably going sideways , dumping salary while he's at it.

    I've heard he's been given full access to the 767, not 757, but a 767.

    I know that's just 1 number to you....but it's a huge deal if you buy commercial passenger jets, like me

    Wait why are you laughing and walking away? Shut up and listen! Please!

    Nene will get dumped with cash/2RP and we will slide under the tax. Book it.

    "We are willing to pay tax."*


    *oh just not the repeater tax; so we are going to avoid tax this year to have more flexibility in the future.

    This is probably one of the few times that you couldn’t call this poster that.

    Kim is a sister.
