    Legendary Passive Aggression.

    Not surprised at how many knuckleheads went through this organization .....

    Derek Fisher was a Rocket for a few seconds.

    He didn't even have to deal with Tilly and Stoney.

    Although Tilly and Stoney are far more likely than Adelman, Morey, and Les to throw money and minutes at a streaky scorer with middling efficiency.

    Guess he was born too early.

    No lie. I guess I used the wrong words. But either way, Westbrook, Wall, Oladipo, Cousins, Wood, Mathews, Porter Jr, Christopher. All inefficient chuckers. Wafer would've fit right in. He is Cam Whitmore's floor.

    how many role players on 1 year deals get rotations changed up so they can get enough minutes and touches to get them going? you're in a support role, get out there and hit the open looks the stars get you. can't do that in the minutes we have available? see ya later.

    I remember mutombo looking confused on the bench during that game and reading his lips when he said why won't he pass? von had the wrong mentality about how to earn his next contract.

    I think he was getting bored that he wasn't getting any publicity so he spewed this bullshit.

    Go back to your basement and continue playing your Fortnite, Wafer.

    Feel like Rick Adelman was a player-friendly coach...

    I liked him back in those days but I'm sure I'd absolutely hate him now. Inefficient mid range chucker. Career 42% FG. Yup, no thanks . It's pretty crazy that he only played one year for the Rockets though, felt like a couple at least.
