Sooooon. Call me a homer but these fools in the finals aren’t that good. OKC worried me the most and they got taken out. This team reminds me of the Astros when they won it all without a “franchise” player. Just a bunch of really good dudes who caught some magic. The worst thing we can do is not let them grow together. It helped that they had a hell of a front office and manager though.
That’s what people don’t get. Money is the endgame. Revenue sharing allows all the governors/owners to reap from tv and licensing revenue. The bigger the markets, sales, and marketability the better and everyone eats. Yao in Houston. Lebron to Cleveland. Flagg to dallas. Wemby to Spurs.
When the Rockets trade Reed, Sengun and FVV. When they get a GM that understand how to evaluate talent and how to build a roster.
With the Fertitta clown show owning the team? Never. I feel sorry for those fans who haven't come to terms with this reality yet.
I think so. Sengun has had 5 years. No mid range and no 3 pt shot. Reed hasn’t been consistent. They could be successful elsewhere but the time to trade is now. That gets 45 mil off the books for underperforming players and a we potentially get a star in exchange
NBA cooked it up for the Spurs with those hidden draft order and then Mavs self-destructed with the trade to the Lakers only gets another hidden draft order. NBA don't want teams to be like the LA Clippers in the 80s. It will our turn when Adam Silver is ex-Commish because Spurs are close to a Dynasty, Cooper is making a Dynasty and Durant is likely moving to another Dynasty. For rewarding Spurs and Mavs with true #1s, we get Connecticut Sun.
The Mavs didnt self destruct the fact that they got flagg and they didnt offer any other team a trade deal for luka shows it was fixed by the league. So the question is when will the league rigg something for us because we didnt get one #1 pick and we panicked and went for kd.
This is our only hope. Spurs = French team Rockets = China's team. We need the next generational Chinese player to declare for the draft and hope the NBA fixes the lottery for us to get him.
Hopefully Silver can rig a lottery for the Rockets and its actually a generational player in that draft
Dada's right. There is no TURN. We were given plenty of opportunities, including not losing our pick to OKC. You need a good organization to maximize/take advantage. All this crying out of the youngsters here is weak sauce. As for most of us old farts....we know the score. Keep an eye, but have your priorities aligned accordingly.
What happened is fertita bought the rockets wanting to win and be involved then found out it was all fake and rigged so turned it over to his son and kept building casinos and restaurants
It felt like the times when the Celtics alternated winning Championships with the Lakers winning them... Basically a Two Party Country ...yes u guessed it right - the United States.
Picked up mediocre players Coach is Thibs (just a different flavor) GM is a lawyer masquerading as a talent evaluator It's just wrong
