    Every game matters to a team sporting a winning percentage of .167.

    Coasting to avoid injuries … that's blind homerism at its finest. I bet you are still taking the over at 60 wins.

    are cbs power rankings also homers?
    placing rockets at no 6 in nba
    https://www.cbssports.com/nba/powerrankings/

    lol nba is not a sprint its a marathon...
    you win nothing by overplaying cp3 now...you win nothing if he goes for 30 points 15 assists.. you only risk his injury and truly destroy your season...
    by coasting now you save cp3 for the moments when his play matters and you increase the value of picks to get butler or great role players

    I admire the optimism, however the rockets are on pace to “coast” their way out of playoff contention if they keep this up.

    To call Riley back and tell him to add a pick after they had an agreement + to leak to the media you're not ready to negotiate after it's revealed Tilman wants to get this deal done or move on = sabotage. Thibs wants to piss off the GM's of interested teams so bad that they cease to be options anymore. I genuinely can't believe Taylor is letting this happen, and I don't believe Thibs will be fired because otherwise he would be fired right now. What's the point firing him AFTER this task?

    Delusion at its finest. This team hasn’t earned the right to “coast” to start the season. That’s just about the dumbest thing you’ve said.

    This year they are sputtering along playing poorly (that's putting it mildly) and you are gonna tell me that they are coasting while CPee3 posted 37 minutes against the Blazers
    Yeah , I think whoever wrote the CBS rankings is either not watching the Rockets or is drunk or smoking some really good drugs.




    They keep coasting as you put it , they'll coast right into the lottery.

    yes they did, they won the title last year.. they were by far the best team in NBA.. the very best....

    if you say 'they didnt win anything', thats exactly my point... you need not kill yourself over meaningless regular season games...

    especially when you have suspended pg, injured MVP and half of the roster
