Sure. I won't comment on other playoff teams for the next game and then when Houston is back in the playoffs I'll go back to giving my unbiased Hard hitting analyses.

That's not how this works according to you, why should a Rockets fan be able to comment on team's with better records?

Basically, you have no leg to stand on... But, hey, not the first time you've made an arse of yourself and it certainly won't be the last.

It works however I say it works bro not how you say it works. You're the one making an arse of yourself trying to tell me what I can and can't comment on. If what the guy posted had merit sure it would be welcomed. When you calling one of the most winningest franchises of his lifetime garbage well you gonna get called out on that.

Find one post I've made ever of me calling a superior franchise to HOU garbage. It don't happen bc I have respect for the game and don't call franchises trash that are more accomplished than mine. I have a respect for the game and its history that many here sorely lack.

3 losing Seasons in the last 31 bro. If you are a 31 year old rocket fan you've endured fewer losing seasons than any 31 yr old fan of any team in any American sport. That's impressive.

You've been spouting for months how GSW was lucky, you've definitely taken multiple shots at the Spurs and Mavs, too.

Remember your reaction to the Harden trade? And you have the nerve to question someone else's basketball knowledge.

Find me a mavs fan that wasn't throwing shade on the rockets and the mavs or a spurs fan that wasn't doing the same.

You can't find one post where I called Warriors lucky. Not even one. And I may say Dallas and Spurs are overrated but that's not even close to calling the whole franchise trash there's a world of difference.

Lamar is up and walking around. Kris Jenner said it's because Kanye went to the hospital and played music for him all the time and snapped him out of his coma. It's a Kanye Khloe Kardashian miracle.

A team with James Harden as its best player will never win a title.

Bingo, he needs to be the 2nd guy.

His problem is he is too laid back and only puts forth max effort when he gets called out and/or has a chip on his shoulder and feels he has something to prove. Life has been too easy for him lately last season he answered all of his critics. He's not really self motivated. That's why you gotta expect him to turn it on big time as the playoffs approach.

I thought that didn't matter in the dog days of the season, and he showed up in playoff atmospheres?

Unless someone offered Ben Simmons for Harden, we aren't in a great position to blow it up right now. We likely aren't going to be bad enough to get a top 5 pick while Harden is here. You aren't going to get much back for Howard either. You're looking at David Lee and two non lottery firsts. Maybe Marcus Smart instead of the picks. There was this crazy trade with the Heat that was rumored back in December, but I doubt they'd trade Winslow.

It'd probably make more sense to play things out this season. Try and trade Brewer and maybe Lawson before the deadline. Then hire a head coach in the offseason and see what happens. Even if Howard stays, we'll have a lot of cap space (like most of the league). I don't see him getting a max either. Probably in the $18-20m range.
