While I never wish anybody Faikure but for our sake it would work out better on grabbing durant if OKC gets murdered by the Spurs. That way he will feel hopeless on the teams future success. I know at this point it's like who do we even have to offer other then harden spec of howard leaves but maybe we can either keep howard or sign horford and that will intrigue him
lmao Durant? We still talking about Durant? How many times must we strike out on the "top FA star" Go after realistic high iq players and shooters and call it an offseason.
Well it's a long shot but not to long considering harden knows durant and you could argue houston has better role players then OKC
I hope no blowouts sweep. A long close entertaining series with the Spurs prevailing. The western playoffs have been already too boring so far as is.
Yeah, the Rockets are looking real good to players who don't want to lose badly in the playoffs right now.
That's not the point though, adding durant obviously makes them more of a threat. Rockets are lacking another play maker The only people who can even dribble the ball are Bev and harden
Yea it's not looking good, truthfully never was. I'm just glad we didn't lose 1-4 in some blowouts to any other team than GSW. That at least hurts our credibility less than if it happened against the Clippers or OKC.
Lol, if OKC loses badly to the Spurs, then guess what, Durant will just go to the Spurs! Spurs were the front runners to get him anyways... this series will just seal the deal.
That's debatable but compared to most teams there alright besides this slump season Ariza, bev, beasley are alright.
This makes no sense 1. They couldn't pay him enough 2. How pathetic would that look on Spurs snd durant being that stacked 3. They have kawriah 4. I'm sure NBA wouldn't allow such a thing
"OMG that's so absurd and would make no sense, and btw here's why it would make sense for him to come here!" This entire thing is disingenuous and stupid. He has no chance of coming here, if he does, he would be stupid. The rockets have a history of conning players and promising this and that, after Dwight I think FAs have gotten used to their snake oil salesman tactics. Unless they're gonna pay him twice as much as the next highest bidder, they don't have a chance. In the end they're just gonna be like "welp! We barely missed him but we were in the running!"---which is completely false from every logical and rational POV. This is the same stupidity that made us miss out on Lowry.
These guys aren't thinking like that. Spurs can easily get him with their older guys taking vet minimum
