    Ime would play a guard that was a scoring weapon. The reason they didn't make a trade was because Stone wanted a clear path for Reed to get minutes after he came to the realization 'this wasn't our year.'

    Which Rockets staffer is going to do a solid for the team and pull a Celtic, and convince his wife to sleep with Ime so they can fire him?

    Stone made some bad draft decisions and Ime makes bad coaching decisions.

    After years of watching rockets basketball how can you not be surprised with what is happening right now in the playoffs? This is the NBA... and we have holes everywhere on the Rockets. That's Houston sports though.
