    The Rockets have not been the best in the west in a looooooong time. It’s getting really frustrating at this point.

    We only had one legitimate shot since the 90’s but it was crushed by CP3’s hamstring.

    We finally have a healthy superstar and the front office can’t build around him. No other stars want to join him. Freaking sucks.

    If Harden wants a ring in Houston, he’s going to have to do it all by himself.

    And if he does by some miracle make it happen, Morey and Tilman better Not try to take any credit because they didn’t have **** to do with it.

    We chose the warriors as our rivals while other teams b****ed out.

    If that's not a flawed sample size, let me sell you a rock that prevents bear attacks.

    Ok, and how many of those teams have beaten the Warriors out of the West in the last 5 years?? If you want to b**** about Morey's first 6 years here, then I guess that's fine, but it doesn't really get us anywhere.
