    This team is sad man… I’m almost rooting against them. Just being honest.

    they will run it back one more season with the same group with everyone healthy and when we lose again in the 1st round, everyone will get fired, KD will get traded FVV will be gone and the only player still on the team from this failure of a roster building will be Amen.

    NO - get a coach with a system and add in shooters....and creators off the dribble.

    Something that’s been in my mind for a minute. This core can’t be together. There flaws. When they’re onthe court together are overwhelming. They’re dimensionally limited. I don’t trust Tari, Jabri, or Amen decision making at the end of games in transition a full press s string. I was waiting dr the bad las or turnover at the end of regulation and it happened. Like it’s time to get higher iq players in their with a more diverse skillset.

    if that's the plan, Im out for good. If there is no change, there is no reason for me to go back. This rebuild has gone for too long.
    We have no scoring, no shooting, and zero basketball IQ

    you can tell this is the plan, we will keep Amen and maybe Jabari, but Sengun will be traded, KD will want out, and FVV will not be resign after we lose the next season, we will finally start over with Amen, Jabari and reed will be on the team simply because his contract is cheap. hopefully by next season there will be a good head coach we can hire. and we will be bottom tier team in the west and maybe with the new draft rules we finally get the #1 pick and get the player that can lead this team.

    Um... along with Jabari it was this sites lord and savior Reed Shepard who turned the ball over in crunch time. A turnover that Lebron turned into a 3 pointer that sent the game into overtime.

    Just saying since I noticed he was missing from the list of people you don't trust. You know the guy that had 5 turnovers this game (most on the team with Sengun being second). Just saying.

    Man I don’t even trust kd to bring the ball up in those pressure situations. He turns it over to during a full court press. I only really trust Sengun, Hiliday and Tate

    This is why I said when we traded Harden that the rebuild will take at least 10 years, and still it won’t guarantee a championship nor us obtaining a true generational talent.

    Spurs and Mavs got theirs and we are toiling in mud still. So if we are counting on luck to get us the talent, I think we proved that we are likely out of that luck we’re seeking.

    We can’t tank unless we can actually get lottery picks back for our players. Unfortunately we don’t have players good enough to warrant lottery picks.

    If we blow it up this year, we will only be signing up for a worse 5 years. We keep retooling, get a PG, change out the coaching, and pray to the injury gods that we can finish next season with another appearance in the playoffs.

    We have to tough it out and see if we can get a disgruntled superstar looking for an exit. That is how we avoided a decade-long tanking when we got Harden, and that’s how we should think now.

    I would also find a way to make our younger players train better. I would invest heavily on that.

    I know everyone expected Rockets to win the series, and we are emotionally ****ed. But come November, we will look to get excited again in the cooler weather.
