The biggest f/a in last year's group turned down like 30 million dollars from one of the most successful franchises in all of sports to come to Houston.

Seriously STFU with this doom and gloom stuff.

Yea save me sky is falling BS. We still have 2 top 10 players in the whole league and you're acting like we're the kings/pels/twolves.

My bad. But c'mon. Howard didn't want to be in the same room as Kobe, let alone play more basketball with him.

Next year, the big free agents are Aldridge (he stays), Love (LA or Boston or anywhere but Houston), Durant (no). I just don't see us getting better.

Not to mention, I'm starting to get over Morey ball. Lay-ups, free throws, and threes are awesome during the regular season, but it takes more than that in the playoffs. Aldridge, who is everything Moreyball hates, murdered us in the playoffs.

The Rockets tell players not to shoot mid-range shots because they don't reward you with as many points over time, but what they are forgetting is that mid-range shots open everything else. The reason Harden is terrible in the playoffs is because everyone KNOWS he is going to the lane, with playoff defense, it's over from there.
