    Yep, can't agree more.. and our better option is definitely Hartenstein and not Chriss... Chriss looks ****ing loss all the time and when he has a chance to do something... he looses the ball or bust some stupid move... He should be in the G-League.

    People about to find out how important Capela is to everything this team does. This could knock the Rockets out of the playoffs very easily. I would like to see Morey make a move to shore up that position. Nene can't play many minutes. Chriss is a stiff. Hart has heart and energy, but he can't do what Capela can do.

    This is bad.

    I think Noah Vonleh could be pretty good here.

    Season over. 3 starters missing significant time. Harden injury is next the way we are going

    No but Adam Silver is trying to ruin the Rockets season & make James Harden's life harder.

    "Sure Harden has twelve consecutive 50-point games in the absence of CP3, Gordon and Capela, but that's because he's selfish. Anyone can score 50 if they shoot that much. A real MVP would trust teammates like Ennis and Hartenstein with the ball more."

    I think we will be okay. That gives us enough time to get him back up to speed for the playoff push.

    Get EG, Paul back. Morey won't make a panic trade.. we don't need to give up any firsts for rotational pieces.

    I guess that would be poetic, considering Capela jammed his thumb on Vucevic's arm.

    Kings
    Kings declare that they want "the best use of 11 million".

    They would take Joe Ingle (this is sample not real)

    Morey needs to find a good player for them.

    Well I think Onuaku gets his shot now! Wait...

    We needed a backup C before this happened and now we still need one. Trade for one a little early before the trade deadline and run a mix unit of new guy/Nene/Harty. We will be better with CP3 and Gordon back, too.

    We learned last year that it's all about being healthy for the playoffs.

    Lets bring home Emeka Okafor...sort of kidding. He is a free agent but he is really old.
    Tyler Zeller is a free agent also,
    Tarik Black,

    There are temporary options.

    Now our coach can play his stupid small ball to our opponents' delight, and more than we can stomach, when CP3 and EGO come back. What team doesn't have a backup center anyway? You can't count part-time Nene or our developmental guys in any backup plan really. I screamed all along about then ever ending influx of guards, and no addition of veteran bigs to back up Clint. This one's on Morey.
